Who sold out Trump? The nation went on a "melon eating" binge

Mr Trump may have walked into a public opinion trap

By tonyPublished 3 years ago 3 min read

Recently, the FBI raided the Mar-a-Lago estate to rob Donald Trump of his property. As the FBI releases more and more information, a mysterious informant from the Trump inner circle has come to light. The FBI was able to pinpoint 11 classified documents about President Trump thanks to a tip from this mysterious informant.

Who was the mole is the latest concern among American melon eaters. They believe an angry Mr Trump is already looking for a mole.

According to the Wall Street Journal, at one point in June, the Justice Department and the FBI had a tacit understanding that Trump had turned over all the classified documents, and at one point agreed to allow the remaining documents to remain in Mar-a-Lago if the underground storage room was replaced with a more secure lock. But things took a turn when the mysterious informant showed up.

The source told the US Justice Department and FBI that Trump kept classified documents at Mar-a-Lago and that it was the informant who tipped off the president that led to the August theft. The news has prompted speculation in the U.S. about who betrayed Trump.

Many Americans have taken aim at Trump's family in a parody. Among them, Trump's wife Melania and first son-in-law Kushner are in the spotlight. Some netizens joked that Melania Trump had turned him in because she didn't want to be buried on a golf course like his ex-wife.

It's worth noting that amid the jokes, there also seemed to be psychological warfare going on against Trump. The Lincoln Project, a prominent anti-Trump group in the Republican Party, claimed that Kushner had been psychologically scarred by his own father's time in prison and had turned in his father-in-law for fear of being implicated by Trump.

During the 2020 election campaign, the Lincoln Project proposed a theory of "psychological warfare" that would use Trump's paranoia to create a "smoke bomb" that would trap him in alienation and insecurity, thereby "driving him crazy" and making him look like a loner.

In addition to the Lincoln Project, Trump's former lawyer Mike Cohen has also taken aim at Kushner, who he believes will be the first to betray Trump. He offered evidence that Kushner, in his forthcoming memoir, "Breaking History: A White House Memoir," wrote that he told Ivanka before leaving the White House with Trump, "It's been a crazy five years, but in 30 days, we'll have a lot less responsibility and we'll get our lives back." Since leaving the White House, Kushner has indeed largely disappeared from public view, rather than following Trump's lead on the MAGA campaign and his return to the White House.

The former Trump lawyer, however, did not offer much evidence and repeatedly stressed in interviews that he was just guessing.

In addition, a number of US media reported that people close to Trump are indeed tracking down the "mole". Trump himself suspects that Joe Biden, the current president of the United States, has planted "bugs" in his home (possibly implying that this is another "Watergate scandal"), but people around Trump are using this issue to hit their hated colleagues, and they are informing on each other and hoping Trump will investigate.

Who "sold out" Trump, and is Trump going after the "mole"? In fact, there is no definitive news, but it seems more like an orgy of American public opinion.

Many of the ideas being floated so far can be seen as a copy of the political battles in the Trump White House, when factions in the White House fought each other, leaks leaked around the White House, and various rumors flew around, causing a storm of public opinion. The feud between Melania Trump and "Princess" Ivanka Trump has even become an open secret.

The public opinion storm this time seems to be the United States "eating melon", but under the water, I am afraid that the undercurrent is surging. Of course, there is a carnival of public opinion, and there are many people who promote it. The goal is to further attack Trump by once again portraying him as a paranoid loner. It doesn't really matter who sold Trump out. The ultimate goal of those who manipulate the media behind the scenes is to completely destroy Trump.
