It's fairly absurd by any measure to claim that a billionaire is not a good businessman. Even the claim that he received a jumpstart through millions from his father just means that both Trump and his father are good business men.

You know, Sam Bankman-Fried was a billionaire. Now he's in prison.

Trump inherited a vast fortune and it was all gone before he was 50 years old. By his sixties, he had so many bankruptcies that the American financial industry wouldn't do business with him anymore. He gets his credit from Europe and currently Deutsche Bank holds the 'pink slip' to Mar A Lago. 90% of the businesses with his name on it have failed. Let's not forget Trump’s $TRUMP token, down by 80%.

This patently false idea that Trump is some super savvy businessman is one of the myths that keeps him popular with his Appalachian, sub-normal supporters and the idiots that invest in his scams.

Whisper it quietly, but he might have got this one right.
The ceasefire is holding, for now. Early days yet of course.
And naturally he's going "laa laa laa, can't hear you" at all the intelligence indicating the striker might have not been quite as effective at obliterating the Iranian nuclear sites as he's claiming.

I wonder what is wrong with him that he has to always claim the superlative, always be so absolute. All the "they said this was the greatest..." stuff. Who are "they"? And was it the greatest? (That's just an example, not referring to anything specific, just generally the way he talks such utter bollocks all the time.)

He was raised to believe himself to be the best.  His brain is just broken and now everything has to be at the extreme.  Either extreme great (because he's never wrong according to everyone he pays), or extreme bad (for everything against him).

Trump's behavior is easily explained by his megalomaniacal, narcissistic, Main Character Syndrome. What's harder to explain is his legions of idiotic followers believing it.

Trump single-handedly and personally destroyed the Iranian Nuclear treaty in 2018. Nations all over the world had negotiated with Iran and curtailed Iran's nuclear research. We had inspectors on the ground in the Iranian facilities, we had cameras watching production equipment. A number of countries were surveilling Iran.

Then a fat, orange man-child came stomping through yelling about the deal wasn't tough enough. He didn't want Iran to have nuthin. He was going to put together a deal so tough that he would have those people helplessly under his thumb. Like everything else he does, it was a complete failure and Iran went back to building bombs. Now we're starting a war.  Good work MAGA!

Of course, Trump's reaction is just to attack the journalist and the magazine, calling it a "failing magazine". Presumably because they have criticised him in the past.

Back in the real world

But obviously it doesn't matter because black is white, wet is dry and his cult members will just believe anything he says.

Ok.. So the top military leadership of the U.S. had no idea they were a perfect use case for a Pegasus spyware attack.

"but, but, Signal is encrypted!"

The only evidence I see that Russian elections are not free or fair, come from the ilk, i.e., warmongering, regime-changing, lying, globester, asshats, who got us in this position in the first place.

Ok, how about a little zetetic research. Start an account on Russia's VK and post the words 'Putin sucks and we shouldn't have invaded Ukraine.' You can experience Russia's freedom first hand.

The ilk here want to support Zelensky, despite no free elections in the Ukraine, and that is exactly why he is a Nazi.

Action69 is dishonestly misrepresenting something shock exclusive.
The UK generally have elections every 4 or 5 years.
We had one in 1910 and then not till 1918
Similarly we had one in 1935 and then not again till 1945.

Just have a think and see if you can remember what happened in those periods (hint - 1914-1918 and 1939-1945) which might have made holding elections impractical.

63% of people support Zelensky

That's a damn sight higher than Trump's...

The Ukrainian government was busy handing out weapons to the civilian population to defend their lives and homes against the murderous orc army invading their country. They had to delay their elections.

If the Russians want peace, all they have to do is leave Ukraine, all of Ukraine.

It's also worth repeating once again that Trump's sympathy towards Russia rather than Ukraine is not a political, ideological, or even financial calculation. Trump is a layman with no real knowledge of or interest in international politics. This is entirely because he likes Putin on a personal level and wants to impress him. Whatever pleasure he gets out of trying to please Putin is not something that benefits anybody but himself. A good leader would set their own personal feelings aside when making these kinds of important decisions.

Putin gave Trump a soccer ball to play with. That's all it took to win his allegiance.

Another aspect is that Trump really wants to be Putin. He wants to have his media in charge, he wants to incarcerate his political enemies and imprison people who make fun of him.
 He imagines that Putin gets to grab all the pussy he wants

Well, I knew there was going to trouble brought to our country and that is why I have been prepping, but this Nazi bastard can go fuck himself.

Zelensky is a short, Jewish comedy actor whose grandparents died in the holocaust.

Zelensky just fucked up big time. He threatened the US and its citizens.

"If Ukrainians wanted to surrender, they would go to Moscow, not Washington."

Neither Trump nor Putin have any rights to Ukraine and in fact, the U.S. agreed to help protect Ukraine from Russia.
Putin is a despot and Trump is an idiot. The Donald can take his military aid and fuck off.


Trump is selling out Ukraine to Russia just like he is doing to America while idiotic rednecks cheer him on.

The family wants a good education and strong moral values for their children, something that has not been provided in the public school system in the US because of people like you, Kramer.

I hope Trump is able to fix it, but that will take quite a bit of discipline to overcome his naturally democratic roots.

If you want to live in a country like Russia or Iran with good education and strong moral values, by all means please go. In fact, Trump wants to deport people, he should subsidize travel and logistics to move people like you out of the country.

Understand, the U.S. government can fall to extreme right-wing nationalists but America will never be Russia. My family and I will never allow the government to block us from the rest of the world. I will boycott the state medias that Trump seeks to establish. Stand-up comedians will stand united as they make fun of Trump's idiotic statements.

You can take your Pro-Russia, Sharia law bullshit and find another country. It will inevitably fail in America.

TDS actually stands for Trump Dumb ass Syndrome. It causes willful ignorance in idiotic rednecks which leads them to buy worthless meme coins and Chinese printed Bibles from a megalomaniacal buffoon who is coordinating with our national adversaries to seize control of our nation.

Here's an example of extreme Trump Dumb ass Syndrome which speaks to the diabolical effectiveness of the Russian psy-op against America. Imagine being so frightened of the 'woke, liberal, leftist agenda' that you are willing to give up your freedom of speech, give up free access to the world wide web, give up the freedom to read any book you want all for the protections of the Trumputin.

This alarmism is pretty dumb.

Given that Trump has destroyed 90% of the businesses that carried his name and he is now in the White House practicing the same bumbling incompetency that led to a half dozen bankruptcies, we should all be alarmed.

Believing that Trump will be successful at anything but grift, megalomania and corruption is pretty dumb. It requires disregarding decades of Trumpian failure.

Fraud begets fraud and is connected to morality. If they are willing to steal money from the public then then there is a higher likelihood to cut corners on research and push out dangerous and questionable therapies. There is a greater danger in allowing fraud. The billions lost to government waste and fraud could be used to save lives elsewhere, such the homeless situation.

People lost around 40 - 50 billion dollars on meme coins in the last month. Just the money lost on meme coins from the Donald, Melania and their charlatan preacher would have fed a lot of homeless people. The good news is that being an incompetent buffoon, Trump couldn't execute a successful rug pull and the price collapsed before he sold. Only the devs that talked Trump into this stupid scam made money. We need to redefine fraud.

But it's all good, DOGE is spending millions of dollars a week rooting around in our personal data looking for fraud.

This will be like the Treasure of Oak Island. For years to come, generations of people will spend millions of dollars digging through the garbage. Occasionally, they turn up a little piece of trash that could be from the same area and time frame which reignites the hunt. Eventually, it could be a reality TV show.
