On Friday evening, President Donald Trump will deliver a Fourth of July speech in front of Mount Rushmore. And according to ABC News reporter Will Steakin, the president plans to use the speech to engage in culture war saber-rattling, attacking the left wing mob for pushing to remove Confederate statues and other monuments that glorify racist aspects of American history.

*(From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hoist_with_his_own_petard
"Hoist with his own petard" is a phrase from a speech in William Shakespeare's play Hamlet that has become proverbial. The phrase's meaning is literally that a bomb-maker is blown up ("hoist" off the ground) by his own bomb (a "petard" is a small explosive device), and indicates an ironic reversal, or poetic justice.
snip
Hamlet exists in several early versions: the first quarto edition (Q1, 1603), the second quarto (Q2, 1604), and the First Folio (F, 1623). Q1 and F do not contain this speech, although both include a form of The Closet Scene, so the 1604 Q2 is the only early source for the quote.)
I have also heard this phrase to apply to someone who is "raised by their own wind/farts" and it
still applies...

It could have killed more people. The hoax. It's from China. But it's a hoax. So I said, stop looking. Stop looking. Miraculous. You don't see it any more. Take the zinc. It goes away. Drink the bleach. No more problems"
