Trump Is Reportedly ‘Raging’ and ‘Pissed Off’ Over the News Coverage of His Arrest

We’re all familiar with Donald Trump’s yelling, screaming, and carrying on, but according to CNN correspondent Alayna Treene, the former president carried that to new extremes on his way back from his arraignment. Treene said sources told her he was “pissed off” and “raging on the plane” as he watched coverage of his arrest and arraignment.

Thursday was undoubtedly an unpleasant day for Trump when he was arrested and arraigned after being indicted by Special Counsel Jack Smith’s grand jury for his attempts to overturn the 2020 presidential election prior to and on January 6, 2021. The former president faces charges of conspiracy to defraud the United States, conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding, obstruction of an attempt to obstruct an official proceeding, and conspiracy against rights, Mediaite reports.

And apparently, he was in a real snit and was reportedly “pissed off” that Judge Moxila Upadhyaya did not address him as “Mr. President.”

Oh my dawg, that’s a mortal sin — the good judge failed to kiss his bottom.

On Friday’s edition of CNN News Central, Treene had even more juicy details to reveal about Trump’s behavior, thanks to her sources:

John Berman: “He’s going to hold a political rally tonight. One question is, what kind of mood will he be in? Sources tell CNN that Trump was quote, this is a quote, pissed off after his arraignment, in part because the judge referred to him simply as Mr. Trump. CNN’s Alayne Treene is near Trump’s golf course, which, of course, is in Bedminster, New Jersey. Alayna, what are you hearing?”

Alayne Treene: “Right. Well, good morning, John. Donald Trump is very frustrated. He’s been concerned all week ever since knowing that this indictment was coming then. And of course, learning of the charges being filed on Tuesday, he’s grown increasingly, increasingly angry with each indictment that has come down the pike already.” And he’s really frustrated that he’s having to deal with this.”

“I’m also told he’s worried and angered that a lot of the money that both his campaign, but also mainly his outside political PAC, Save America, has been raising is being forced to be diverted to his legal team.”

Now that’s encouraging news, isn’t it? And Treene added:

“And the other thing, as well as he was very angry as well, leaving that court appearance, he was definitely pissed off and he was also kind of raging on the plane, I was told, as he was watching the news coverage of this come in. And so even though publicly he still wants to sound defiant, you’ll hear him try to use that kind of rhetoric tonight. Privately, he is very angry about this, John.

John Berman: “It turns out three indictments can get you down. Alayna Treene in New Jersey. Thank you very much for that.

It’s kind of fun to see Trump get all steamed up. It’s a preview of more to come obviously. And he could have easily avoided this by keeping everything on the level.

But that’s not what he chose to do.
