Dictatorship! Maddow’s Manic Monday Meltdown Over Illegal Alien Arrests and Alligator Alcatraz Is a Crock – Twitchy

MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow had an on-air meltdown on Monday night. Like all Democrats, she’s losing her mind over President Donald Trump spearheading the effort to arrest and deport all the millions of her party’s precious illegal aliens who were flooded into the country by former White House vegetable Joe Biden. Democrats created the problem, and Trump is solving it with the power entrusted to him by America’s voters. It’s too much for her to take. So she’s pulling out her tiresome ‘concerned face’ and her equally worn-out ‘Trump is a dictator’ drum.

Start here. (READ)

A stressed Rachel Maddow, who has been whining about Trump for a decade now, declares that we are living under a “consolidating dictatorship.”

Maddow accused the Trump administration of wanting to feed illegal immigrants to alligators. 

“We do now live in a country that has an authoritarian leader in charge. We have a consolidating dictatorship in our country.”

“They’re trying to make it into a national entertainment to threaten to feed immigrants to alligators.”

Here’s melodramatic Maddow. (WATCH)

If Trump wanted to really consolidate power, Maddow wouldn’t be heard from again.

Then is he expected to arrest her, since he is a dictator? Or is he just not good at “dictatoring”?

If Trump were truly a dictator, MSNBC and the Democrat Party it serves would have been wiped off the face of the Earth years ago.

Commenters wonder if anyone believes the nonsense Maddow serves up on Mondays.

The media desperation is getting pretty pathetic. Who even believes this crap?

Sadly, a lot of people. I’m sick of hearing about the “authoritarian” administration that’s destroying the country. Sigh. Reason is useless.

Baby boomer women keep tuning in, and there is no way of reasoning with them.

The good news is that those viewers are aging out, and a sizable number of viewers who are still breathing have abandoned Maddow to her manic madness.

The Rachel Maddow Show on MSNBC averaged 2.024 million total viewers per episode in July 2025, per Adweek ratings data. This marks a 9% decline from June 2025.

And this is why Rachel Maddow had to take a $5 million cut in her pay.

— Paul A. Szypula 🇺🇸 (@Bubblebathgirl) August 5, 2025

It’s very discouraging that there are 2 million mentally bankrupt people that would watch her.

— TexasSheriHockey (@TxSheriHockey) August 5, 2025

And I hope she’s invested well. She will be gone very soon! God WILLING!

Maddow has no real money worries. Her dictatorship worries are all in her imagination.

Posters have some closing observations and thoughts.

This is really helpful in getting people to stop sneaking into the country.

You can’t buy an advertising campaign like this.

Even the opposition serves Trump’s purposes.

These meltdowns fuel my dopamine.

“Consolidating dictatorship” sounds like a Netflix doc, not a news segment.

Despite what Maddow claims, no one is being fed to alligators at Alligator Alcatraz. Her gator gabbing is a crock.
