Former President Donald Trump trolled the Democrats on Wednesday by endorsing candidates in the party’s primary.
In several posts on his social media platform, the former president first mockingly endorsed lawyer Dan Goldman in his race for Congressional District 10 in New York, hailing him as the man who “headed up the Impeachment Committee and lost.”

“Lawyer Dan Goldman is running for Congress, NY-10, and it is my great honor to Strongly Endorse him,” Trump began. “I do this not because of the fact that he headed up the Impeachment Committee and lost, but because he was honorable, fair, and highly intelligent.”
“While it was my honor to beat him, and beat him badly, Dan Goldman has a wonderful future ahead,” the former president added. “He will be very compassionate and compromising to those within the Republican Party, and will do everything possible to make sure they have a fair chance at winning against the Radical Left Democrats, who he knows are destroying our Country.”
“I would like to thank Dan for fighting so hard for America, and for working so tirelessly to stop ‘Trump,’” he concluded. “He was not easy to beat, but winning against him made me realize just how very talented I am!”

The former president’s “endorsement” of Goldman can easily be interpreted as a satirical hit against the New York Times, which also endorsed Goldman in the Democrat primary last week, citing his “work on the impeachment trial” and his “close working relationships in Washington — an advantage that should help him deliver on the issues most important to New Yorkers, even as a new member of Congress.”
Goldman indeed represented Democrats during the first impeachment trial over Trump’s phone call with Ukraine.
As Insider noted, the New York Times received blowback and criticism for its endorsements, beings that they
