In the latest unhinged display of full-blown Trump Derangement Syndrome, far-left Connecticut Democrat Senator Chris Murphy has crossed into pure conspiracy theory territory. Murphy is now suggesting that President Donald Trump is being paid by the Iranian regime. Murphy took to the Senate floor this week for yet another unhinged rant, this time claiming the first 500 days of President Trump’s second term have been defined by “nuclear-grade corruption” and self-dealing. He painted the White House as a “24/7 corruption operation” and warned that Trump’s strategy is to flood the zone with so many stories that the public tunes out. Here’s Murphy in his own words:
“Over the last year and a half, our president, Donald Trump, has turned the White House into a 24/7 corruption operation. This is a national crisis, and we should start acting like it. The president’s goal is to engage in so much corruption, so much self-enrichment, to hand out so many favors to his friends, his family, and his political allies, that it just becomes the pitter patter of rain. It’s normal. It’s constant. It’s neverending. Trump’s bet is that if there is a new story of corruption, of self-dealing every few days, that the press will stop covering it, or the public will just stop paying attention.
