'They Fear Me': Marc Elias Hits Back At Trump After Truth Social Attack

May 10th, 2026, 5:44 pm


Democratic attorney Marc Elias hit back at President Donald Trump after his Truth Social attack on him Sunday, calling the post “unhinged” and touting his legal victories over the president. Trump took to his social media platform earlier in the day to express his anger over Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer’s so-called “election integrity group”– an effort begun by the senator to block possible election interference in the upcoming midterms.

The president raged against the group, claiming their goal was to “suppress Republican voters.” “Palestinian Chuck Schumer is hiring Eric Holder, famous for handing guns to Mexican cartels under the Barack Hussein Obama administration, as part of a Democrat-led ‘Election Integrity Group’ that will no doubt try to suppress Republican voters, and interfere in our Elections,” he wrote.

The president then took a swipe at Elias, calling him a “disgusting individual” and blaming him for the infamous “Steele dossier.”. “Furthermore, Marc Elias, a terrible lawyer with a horrible track record, is also involved,” wrote Trump. “This is the same disgusting individual who was responsible for the fake Russia dossier from a foreign nation to meddle in the 2016 Election, which I won in historic fashion.”

Elias, the founder of Democracy Docket, responded on X, calling the president’s attacks “a badge of honor.”. “Trump’s latest attack on me is as unhinged as ever,” he wrote. “I wear his scorn as a badge of honor.”

The Trumpanus. There’s a range of explanations from he simply isn’t engaged in any kind of slander and fouling due to boredom to he is incapable of following through on any multi stage task due to his creeping decomposition.

Personally I lean toward boredom. He’s been given everything he wants and yet the gaping holes are still there. Few avenues for him to escalate for a rush.

Then they ridicule you. Then they attack you and want to burn you. And then they build monuments to you."

Marc Elias is in the being attacked stage. They attack because they're frightened of him.

... in the most unsavory ways imaginable. Marc will go after them and drag their asses into court while winning 95% of the cases he files against these Fascists. These Nazis hate them some Marc Elias because he will not allow them to get away with their contrived election/voting bullshit. Always putting the skids on them at every bend and turn by hauling them into court.
