'Deranged Lunatic': Critics Blast Trump After 'Utterly Unfit' Holiday Rant
Critics are calling out President Donald Trump for marking Memorial Day with a wild all-caps rant in which he slammed the previous administration as 'scum,' attacked former President Joe Biden, and railed against judges who've blocked parts of his agenda. Trump on Monday wrote: Memorial Day is typically a somber holiday intended to honor the nation's war dead. Trump, however, spent at least part of the day airing his grievances. In addition to the all-caps rant on his Truth Social page, he also fired off another threat at Harvard University, gave a speech at Arlington National Cemetery in which he bragged that he has 'everything' during his second term in office, and reposted a message calling Biden a 'decrepit corpse.' Trump's critics put him on blast:

Trump's critics put him on blast: Donald Trump is a deranged lunatic who wouldn't be allowed to manage a Wendy's. But I guess we all have to pretend like this is normal and not 25th amendment behavior. People who treat this as acceptable are the insane ones. — Sarah Longwell (@SarahLongwell25) May 26, 2025 This is what's baffling about the "Trump wins because he talks like a normal person" argument: if anyone you knew went on a rant like this, you'd say, "Chill the fuck out, man." This is not what a normal person sounds like. — James Surowiecki (@JamesSurowiecki) May 26, 2025 Truly amazing to consider how much time has been spent the last few weeks taking about Joe Biden's mental health — Michael A. Cohen (NOT TRUMP'S FORMER FIXER) (@speechboy71) May 26, 2025 Is there even a conventional wisdom for why he posts like this on every holiday now? Or is it just something embarrassing and obscene that we all agree we're better off just pretending isn't happening? — Andrew Egger (@EggerDC) May 26, 2025 Trump can't even show basic respect on Memorial Day. Utterly unfit for office. — Republicans against Trump (@RpsAgainstTrump) May 26, 2025 This is how Trump chooses to memorialize Americans--Republicans, Democrats, whites, people of color, men, women--who died fighting for their is about as unpresidential as one can get. — Steven Pifer (@steven_pifer) May 26, 2025 Nothing but a pathetic dishonorable old man. — Fred Wellman (@FPWellman) May 26, 2025 Thank you sir, for this uplifting message of unity on Memorial Day. You are literally the greatest Commander-in-Chief since President Ben Franklin broke bread with the Native Americans at the very first Memorial Day to honor the lives lost during the Trade War of 1812. — Boston Globe Pitchbot (@BostonSatire) May 26, 2025 His bone spurs must be bothering him today, or maybe he is using this Memorial Day to remember how he harrassed military heroes like John McCain. Or how he said that those who defend our country and died are "losers." — Bustopher Jones (@lwqpas) May 26, 2025 Remember the outrage when HRC used the term Deplorable. Trump is deplorable. — Michael Snell (@nickdangerca) May 27, 2025 Your president is insane. — Jeff Talks (@JeffFromNH) May 26, 2025 Inspirational as fuck — ^^Liz^^ (@LizMpersonal) May 26, 2025

Poem of the Week: Donegall Street, Béal Feirste
For Nóirín I know you went with Sally to the old church In the City Centre, miraculously unscathed by bombs On both sides. What a splendid idea to leave Its space open and lit on New Year's Eve With no one visibly there. I imagine Some small body absorbing graceful scenes And alcoves and candles, with hands clasped At Mass. Your mother lights candles next to yours For five dead relatives. She touches me with holy water Four times in the shape of hope's four-leafed clover. Chris Agee is the editor and publisher of Irish Pages and The Irish Pages Press. His last book was Trump Rant (2021), 'a poetic work of non-fiction'; and he is working on his fifth collection of poems, Irish Rain
