Trump furiously denies he suffered from depression in overnight meltdown on Liz Cheney

In the middle of the night, former President Donald Trump went on an extended tirade aimed at former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY), as he took exception with her claim that he suffered from depression after his 2020 presidential loss.

In Cheney's new book, "Oath and Honor; A Memoir and a Warning," which she has been out promoting, she claimed that now ousted Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) was forced to fly down to Mar-a-Lago to console the former president after his loss to President Joe Biden.

In her book she claimed that McCarthy told her that former president was not eating due to sadness over his defeat, and that claim seems to have triggered Trump who singled out that allegation above all others.

"Crazy Liz Cheney, who suffers from Trump Derangement Syndrome at a level rarely seen before, writes in her boring new book that Kevin McCarthy said he came to Mar-a-Lago after the RIGGED election because, 'the former president was depressed and not eating,'" Trump fumed. "That statement is not true. I was not depressed, I WAS ANGRY, and it was not that I was not eating, it was that I was eating too much."

"But that’s not why Kevin McCarthy was there," Trump added. "He was at Mar-a-Lago to get my support, and to bring the Republican Party together - Only good intentions. Liz Cheney, on the other hand, went on to lose her seat in Congress by the largest margin for a sitting Congressperson in the history of the U.S. She then worked with others on the J6 Committee to delete and destroy the evidence and findings of the committee."

In fact, there is no "deleted" evidence from the January 6th Committee, as Trump has repeatedly falsely claimed.
