“Harvard is an anti-Semitic, far-left institution” — with these words, Donald Trump began one of his unrestrained tirades on April 24, 2025, lashing out at everything that contradicts him. The university, he claimed, is “a liberal mess,” and its international students “want to tear our country apart.” These are the words of a man who no longer struggles for truth, but is in free fall into his own self-mythologizing.
Trump rages, because it was a day of rulings. Not his, but the courts’. He was, as the legal phrasing goes, “spanked.” The law spoke — against him, against his decrees, against his will to absolute power. It is a nearly unprecedented moment in American history for a president to fail in so many federal courts on a single day. A storm like this leaves marks — even in words.
“Boeing should default China for not taking the beautifully finished planes it committed to purchase,” Trump shouts to the world. “This is just a small example of what China has done to the USA for years…” And then: “Fentanyl continues to pour into our country from China, through Mexico and Canada, killing hundreds of thousands of our people — and it better stop, NOW!”
Yet while Trump speaks of ongoing exchanges with China, the Chinese government denies any contact. Once again, the president is left alone with his words — and the world watches as the final chapter of a project is written that was never a democratic one.
“Rupert Murdoch has told me for years that he is going to get rid of his Trump-hating fake pollster at Fox News — but he has never done it.” That sentence, too, is spoken on that day. It is the monologue of a man who no longer feels understood — not by the media, not by the polls, not even by his own party. A man who no longer plays by the rules because he believes they were made to work against him. Who sinks deeper into a narrative of defeat, in which he alone stands on a field of honor, surrounded by enemies, by “China-loving newspapers,” “lying pollsters,” and universities that “spew fake ANGER AND HATE.”
“Later today I will be meeting with — of all people — Jeffrey Goldberg, the Editor of The Atlantic,” he continues. “The man responsible for many fictional stories about me, including the HOAX on ‘Suckers and Losers’ and ‘SignalGate’…” Trump announces an interview — a test, as he puts it, “to see if The Atlantic is capable of telling the truth.” The title of the article, according to Trump’s representatives? “The Most Consequential President of this Century.” A mockery — or the last hope of a man who already knows that his place in history will not be written as a reformer, but as a destroyer.
And yet Trump insists: “What can be so bad — I WON!”
Won? His poll numbers are in free fall. The streets are preparing. On May 1st, Labor Day, the United States will tremble — peacefully, but unmistakably. Because what remains is the shudder of a nation brushed by fascism — not in uniform, but in tailored suits, through executive orders instead of decrees, through tweets instead of commands.
Trump is not a noble president of the United States. He is the author of his own moral decline. And this commentary is not an accusation — but a testament to the decay of a man who could have served — and instead chose to rule.
