Fox News tried to put a positive spin on Trump's first 100 days in office by listing his bizarre "accomplishments."

As shown during coverage of a cabinet meeting when members spent time telling the President how great he is, MAGA Republican President Donald Trump's biggest priority is Donald Trump's image and ego.

Also caught on video was Trump telling a Fox News correspondent to make sure the network praised his cabinet meeting.

So, is it any wonder that while the world points out how Trump administration 2.0 showed previously unseen levels of incompetence in its first 100 days, Fox News scrambled to find accomplishments to fawn over on air?

‘Fox & Friends’ played a cringeworthy North Korea-style montage of Trump “having fun” as part of celebrations marking the first 100 days of his second term. Watch here: www.thedailybeast.com/fox-friends-...

But rather than admiration, a number of Trump's so-called accomplishments...

...drew mockery.

The snark was strong in the online response to Fox's list.

People were seemingly unimpressed by Trump winning the straw wars.

Literally grasping at straws 😂

The Trump administration is exactly like Fox News... 0% truth, 100% performance theater lies, and a cancer on America.

Despite their fawning adoration over his mediocre accomplishments, Trump still lashed out at Fox for accurately reporting the results of their poll on his approval rating at 100 days.

Everyone Hates you, bro!!

Even Fox News is having a hard time spinning Trump's first 100 days 😂 Trump has the lowest 100-day job approval rating of any president in the past 80 years, with massive public pushback on many of his policies and extensive economic discontent, including broad fears of a recession.

Trump posted on Truth Social:

"We don’t have a Free and Fair ‘Press’ in this Country anymore. We have a Press that writes BAD STORIES, and CHEATS, BIG, ON POLLS. IT IS COMPROMISED AND CORRUPT. SAD."
He's butthurt because Fox "News" dare report on the poll saying that Trump has the lowest 100 day approval rating in 80 years. Sounds like free and fair press to me, and Trump hates it.

In a separate rant, Trump called polls that show him in a negative light "criminal."

Fox News will have some groveling and glad-handing to do to get back in Trump's favor after unexpectedly telling the truth about his popularity.

Trump's Dismissive Reaction To Concerns About Insider Trading Amid His War With Iran Speaks Infuriating Volumes

In an article for CounterPunch titled "Trump’s Casino Royale: The Iran War," Matthew Stevenson wrote:

"Given that Donald Trump conceives of the presidency as a casino—why else would he be trying to makeover the White House to look like the Bellagio?—it makes sense that his administration has turned the war with Iran into an insider-trading scheme."
"It used to be that wars were fought to make 'the world safe for democracy' or 'to end all wars' (a World War I expression), but now wars are fought so that Trump insiders can get rich quick in prediction markets or to help the president’s family (and its remittance men) corner the Persian Gulf oil market."

Pointing out who is profiting off inflating oil prices and creating false scarcity, Stevenson added:
