Trump Trolls Liberals on White House X, They Have a Complete Meltdown

President Donald Trump took to Truth Social on Wednesday, celebrating the termination of New York City’s congestion pricing plan with a post that quickly sparked reactions across social media.

The announcement followed a decision by the Department of Transportation (DOT) to formally rescind approval for the controversial tolling program.

The decision was outlined in a letter from Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy to New York Governor Kathy Hochul, informing her that the Trump administration was ending the congestion pricing program.

Following the move, Trump declared victory online, posting:

“CONGESTION PRICING IS DEAD. Manhattan, and all of New York, is SAVED. LONG LIVE THE KING!”

The post quickly gained attention, with supporters and critics reacting to both the decision and the cheeky reference to monarchy.

Governor Kathy Hochul swiftly denounced the decision, vowing to challenge Trump’s administration in court over the move.

“We are a nation of laws, not ruled by a king,” Hochul said in response.

Her statement echoed broader frustration from Democrats and congestion pricing supporters, who argued that New York had the right to implement the tolling system to fund transit improvements.

The congestion pricing program was initially set to take effect in June 2024, requiring drivers entering Manhattan below 60th Street to pay a toll, with an estimated $9 base charge for passenger vehicles.

The Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) intended to use revenue from the tolls to fund transit upgrades, but opponents argued that the plan disproportionately harmed commuters, small businesses, and lower-income workers.

The program had already faced delays and political pushback, with Hochul previously pausing its implementation in June 2023, only to revive it in early 2024 after Trump’s re-election.

With Hochul preparing to take legal action, the battle over congestion pricing is far from over.

The Trump administration’s decision to revoke approval for the plan is expected to trigger a lengthy court fight, as state officials push to reinstate the tolls.

Meanwhile, the posts have fueled reactions online, with critics calling it provocative while supporters celebrated the move as a victory for drivers and businesses in New York City.

F’ck you people. He’s no king. He’s a disgusting, tired, greasy, orange manbaby who gets his tiny little d’ck sucked from one side and everyone’s nose up his ass-ets on the other. None of you are serious people.

As the legal process unfolds, the fate of congestion pricing remains uncertain, but for now, Trump’s administration has effectively halted the controversial toll plan, setting up a high-profile clash between Washington and Albany.
