Trump turns to Truth Social to share sexual jokes and calls for ‘military tribunals’

As the presidential candidates head into the most heated phase of the election year so far, former President Donald Trump has made a distinctive shift in tone on his Truth Social profile, lashing out in increasingly vulgar, misogynistic and vindictive posts.

Just this week, he’s reposted messages calling for his political opponents to be jailed, calling for a return of “public military tribunals” for people like former President Barack Obama, as well as making a graphic sexual joke about Vice President Kamala Harris and Democrat Hillary Clinton, his opponent in 2016. The repost of the sexual joke now appears to have been removed from Trump’s profile.

“Indict the unselect J6 committee sedition,” another reads, followed by “retruth if you want to lock them up.”

Another features a picture of Trump sitting next to Obama with the words “All roads lead to Obama. Retruth if you want public military tribunals.”

And one includes a screenshot apparently from X of a reply to a photo of Harris and Clinton that oral sex “impacted both their careers differently.”

Trump has regularly used his Truth Social platform to denigrate enemies, and weigh in on the various legal cases against him, so much so that a New York judge held him in contempt of court for violating a gag order, in part based on his posts. In March, he shared a video that included an image of Biden bound in the back of a pickup truck. And in July, he reposted another call for a “televised military tribunal” for former Wyoming GOP Rep. Liz Cheney and a quote from Ulysses S. Grant after the start of the Civil War, in which he said: “There are but two parties now: traitors and patriots.”
