Really wish we'd stop reporting on this old man yelling at clouds. It would be more newsworthy if he'd referenced a law that did exist.
Unfortunately ignoring this guy isn’t going to make him go away. There is a large crowd who follow him and we should be aware
However I agree with your sentiment, I wish we never heard of him again
I didn't say ignore him. I said stop reporting on him yelling at clouds.
Reporting on a murder doesn't need to include every insane thing that comes out of the murderer's mouth. But in Trump's case that's what gets the clicks.
until the next election is over I don't think that's going to be possible.
Yeah, it won't stop then either as he will get media attention until a few decades after he dies at least. Like a shittier JFK.
He's eligible for a 2nd term until he gets one or he dies. We're going to have to hear from him at least until 2028, maybe even 2032.
I believe we all feel that way.
It's not a bug, it's a feature. He's pivoted fully, he no longer cares about trying to make sense to anyone but his rabid fan base, and he wants them to come save him. Truth is not objective in authoritarian systems. It's whatever the authority says it is, and if that changes, then the truth changes.
Violate this and become that one famous guy not saluting Hitler in the famous photo. He died in a concentration camp.
The seeds were planted early and often:
"Alternative facts"
"Fake news"
"Truth isn't truth"
"What you're seeing and what you're reading is not what's happening"
The cult is the only thing that's real. Yet it's the only thing they don't believe they're a part of.
My gramps used to tell lots of whoppers, like Trump. He was obsessed and over time he honed his whoppership to a fine art, where you could barely tell if he was rolling you a whopper or telling the truth. And that's the line of distinction right there. Trump never learned to be believable to anyone with half a brain.
This, unfortunately, is all too true. We live in a nightmare that should have ended long ago.
Any headline that includes "roasted" or "slammed" or anything similar is rarely worth reading.
You know when you see those words the target audience is Millennials.
Seriously? People still say this shit?
Dude the oldest millennials are now 42 fucking years old and the youngest are 27 years now.
Must’ve missed the announcement that it got changed to Gen Z.
That's not a knock on Millennials, that is language used to target them.
He just used ChatGPT, no biggie
At this point, I’d vote for ChimpGPT over the orange dipshit.
TrumpGPT. Except it's always wrong.
So, Bard, got it.
Wait until he starts talking about how he didn’t do anything, it’s fake news generated by AI. He’ll say the hands are all wrong. They aren’t tiny
Didn't Nixon argue something similar?
It's called leadership, gosh
