WSJ Editorial Board Suggests Trump Get “Counseling”

From the editorial board of the Wall Street Journal:

Former Presidents and Vice Presidents have told us how psychologically difficult the early months of lost political power can be. We can therefore empathize if former President Trump is frustrated these days, and perhaps that explains his attack on us Thursday over his role in the GOP’s loss of the Senate.

For someone who says we don’t matter, he sure spends a lot of time reading and responding to us. Thanks for the attention.

What really seems to rankle the most famous resident of Mar-a-Lago isn’t his caricature of our policy differences. It’s that we recognize the reality that Mr. Trump is the main reason Republicans lost two Georgia Senate races in January and thus the Senate majority. Mr. Trump refuses to take responsibility for those defeats, contrary to all evidence.

Read the full editorial.

WSJ editorial page smacks former guy again. “In the single Trump term, Republicans lost the House, White House and finally the Senate.”

“Losing to Joe Biden … by 7.1 million votes as an incumbent President must be painful. Counseling could be in order.” https://t.co/Y2jcuxmYQs
