Steve Schmidt is a Republican who thought John McCain would make a better president than Obama (who was pretty damn good), and one of the GOP’s thought-leaders until the GOP gave up on thought altogether as entirely overrated, driving Schmidt so far out of the party that he wants it burned to the ground and a new conservative party to start anew.

Schmidt is our kind of conservative.

Maybe it is the fact that he is a conservative with impeccable bona fides that he feels more freed than anyone to tell some truths about Trump that few others will. He also speaks directly to Trump in his tweets. His effectiveness might well also have something to do with the fact that the guy is f-ing brilliant which makes one wonder what he was ever doing …

Some progressives say don’t lean on this guy for anything, wolf-sheep, whatever. I’m going to fall in love with anyone who can say THIS: (As per usual, on longer threads, we post every other thread. It will only make sense to read each post from the top):

.@realDonaldTrump We heard you loved Evita. You saw it so many times. Where will you live out your years in disgrace? Will you buy Epstein’s island? One last extra special deal from him? Or will you be drooling on yourself in a suite at Walter Reed? Maybe you will be in prison?2

Trump’s world is full of winners and losers, he’s never beaten Schmidt. Guess what that makes Trump? Way to get under his skin immediately.

Almost $500 million in personally guaranteed loans to? Its’ all coming down. You think you and your disgusting family are going to be in deal flow next year? Are you really that delusional? You are lucky Chris Wallace interrupted you after @JoeBiden said you @realDonaldTrump 4/

Steve knows that money matters more than being president, and simply wonders how many “rich guys” have $421 million in debt? Bezos has that on his credit card, but – you know, can cover it in a month. Not Trump.

Wearing off? Is the Euphoria fading? Do you feel foggy? Tired? Do you ache? How is the breathing? Hmmm. Are you watching TV today @realDonaldTrump. We will have some nice surprises for you. Everyone is laughing at you. You are a joke. A splendid moron turned deadly 🤡 clown.

Ah, old, tired, loser, ladies man! Nice

Lose; like most of them, because of you @realDonaldTrump. We hear from the WH and the campaign everyday. They are betraying you. They are looking to get out alive and salvage careers and their names. It’s @IvankaTrump and @jaredkushner vs @DonaldJTrumpJr and @kimguilfoyle 8/

Play on paranoia!! Always a good move!

when you didn’t want to name @DonaldJTrumpJr Donald because you were worried about him being a loser named Donald. You were right about that. He is. But it is you @realDonaldTrump who will be remembered as America’s greatest loser. You will be crushed in the election. Shhhhhhhh

Gratuitous insults because why not?

And my personal favorite, because it’s just SO TRUE:

.@realDonaldTrump you are the worst President in American History. Disgrace will always precede your name. Your Grandchildren and great grandchildren will grow up ashamed of their names. One day I suppose there will be some small and not much visited library that bears your name

There are a ton of great anti-Trump screeds out there on Twitter. I challenge anyone to find a better one and I promise to publish it because it’s time for brutal honesty.
