MTP Meltdown: Fight or Flight? Why not Both? [1]

['Art Smart', 'Citizen Earth']

Date: 2026-06-08  

Kristen Welker caught Trump in a lie, and he resorted to fight AND flight, like a cornered animal.

He lied a whole lot and she only fact checked a few things, and then he’d dismiss her fact check, and they’d both move on, it only being a 1-hour show. This time she didn’t let him dismiss it. She dug in and caught him in a lie, in this case, that the 2020 election was rigged.

Like a cornered animal, he had a fight or flight response, and in fact we saw both. He fought back until the point where he realized that he had hopelessly lost, and then came the flight.

His father programmed him to hate losing more than anything else. Even worse than death. In fact winning was synonymous with killing, and the latter violent word was what they often used. The most profane word in his vocabulary is Loser. Just as he did after the 2020 election, he will do anything — anything — not to be considered a Loser. He’d rather die. (And on January 6th, he was not unhappy that others died for his cause, that being to not be the election’s Loser.)

After clearly losing the argument with Welker, his only option then was flight. Here’s a little trivia: Instead of a mic-drop moment, he crushed his tiny lav mic under his foot. Go back and watch. That’s the precise moment his audio stops.

Ladies and gentlemen, his unhinged behavior is proof positive that he’s a Loser. And not just a Loser, but a Loser to a black female.

To his credit, I was surprised we didn’t then get his usual “low IQ” projection (where he projects onto others his own imperfections that his conscious mind can’t handle). Maybe he’s making at least a little progress. Thank God even for small favors.
