Post from Truth Social

Other than the Rigged Presidential Election of 2020, the Biggest Scandal in American History is the “AUTOPEN!” Whoever used it was usurping the power of the Presidency, and it should be very easy to find out who that person (or persons) is. They did things that a Joe Biden, of sound mind, would have never done, like, Open Borders, Transgender for everyone, men in women’s sports, and far more. Fear not, however, we will bring America BACK, BIGGER, BETTER, AND STRONGER THAN EVER BEFORE!

This post exemplifies Trump's characteristic fusion of perseverative narcissistic injury (2020 election) with current conspiratorial framing. The autopen—a routine presidential tool—is elevated to historic scandal, serving as a vehicle to delegitimize the entire Biden presidency and its policies. The paranoid subtext of unnamed persons "usurping the power of the Presidency" constructs a shadow-government narrative that demands no evidence while delegitimizing policy outcomes Trump opposes. Notably, the policies cited as evidence of usurpation (border policy, transgender protections, sports policy) were explicit Biden campaign promises, undermining the claim that a cognitively impaired Biden wouldn't have pursued them. The post follows Trump's well-established three-act rhetorical pattern: grievance → enemy → heroic restoration. The closing ALL CAPS slogan ("BIGGER, BETTER, AND STRONGER THAN EVER BEFORE") functions as ritualized narcissistic supply solicitation. Psychologically, the post reflects ongoing difficulty integrating the 2020 electoral loss, with the "rigged election" serving as a compulsory frame for all subsequent grievances. Defense mechanisms include pathological distortion (autopen as historic scandal), projection, and splitting. The paranoid features—unnamed conspirators wielding illegitimate power—are consistent with the paranoid dimension of malignant narcissism. No danger indicators are present; the post is oriented toward delegitimization rather than mobilization.

Gaslighting Detected:
  • Framing routine autopen use as unprecedented scandal
  • Implying Biden never held legitimate authority
  • Continued insistence on 'rigged' 2020 election as established fact
Reality Distortions:
  • 2020 election was rigged (no evidence sustained this in any court)
  • Autopen use constitutes the biggest scandal in American history
  • Biden's policies were enacted by unknown usurpers rather than his administration
Fact Checks (2)
"Autopen use was the 'Biggest Scandal in American History'"
Mostly False

Autopen use by presidents is longstanding and legal. Obama, Trump, and Biden all used autopens. Its use became controversial when Biden's cognitive decline raised questions about who was directing policy, but calling it the biggest scandal in history is extreme hyperbole.

"A Joe Biden 'of sound mind' would have never done Open Borders, Transgender for everyone, men in women's sports"
Mostly False

Biden campaigned on immigration reform and LGBTQ+ protections. These were consistent with his stated platform, not evidence of someone else governing.

“Autopen use was the 'Biggest Scandal in American History'”
vs.
“This is 'the biggest Scandal in the history of our Country'”
In 2019, Trump called Democrat election interference / the 'Insurance Policy' the 'biggest Scandal in the history of our Country.' In 2025, he applies the exact same superlative — 'Biggest Scandal in American History' — to a completely different event (autopen use). A single speaker cannot have two unrelated 'biggest' scandals without at least one claim being contradicted. While Trump frequently uses hyperbolic superlatives, this is a direct factual conflict: two distinct events are each labeled the singular 'biggest scandal in American history.' Note the source carves out the 2020 election as a separate exception, but that only adds a third event in competition for the same superlative — it does not resolve the contradiction with the 2019 Insurance Policy claim.

Daily Digest A Day of Unchecked Presidential Grandeur: Executive Orders, Geopolitical Threats, and Conspiracy in Rapid Succession

Trump spent the day projecting dominance across every front — ordering California to pull a transgender athlete from competition, threatening Putin with unnamed consequences, and floating Canada's annexation as a missile-defense discount. The mood was uniformly self-aggrandizing, with no vulnerable ...
