holy shit, he's just like those yankee boomers who insist the supposed 15 minute city a couple hundred km down the highway is under martial law and people aren't allowed to leave their district lmao
He's literally a fox News watcher just like the rest of them. Just gas him up and then put Miller/Hegseth/Thiel or whoever in his ear and he does whatever.
he's worse. i hear he does whatever the last person he talked to says
Bit idea: Hijack Trump's TV and get him to believe that the Army is going to coup him so he disbands it
what if it turns out trump isnt even a bad guy and his team just shows him absurd AI generated slop all day thats meant to look like fox news so all of his political positions are just reactions to that
maybe he really thought he watched a video of venezuelan immigrants eating people’s pets because they showed him an AI one
he thought we had medbeds and all americans were gonna get a universal healthcare card to go into the medbed and “restore our health to 100” as the video said. honestly may have just cracked the code. maybe he really was an fbi informant on epstein
(im joking ofc hes a piece of shit)
It's been known that Trump basically holds the views of whoever he last talked to. Trump holds a meeting with Putin, comes out pro-Russia. Trump meets with a NATO general, comes out pro-NATO. Trump talks to Stephen Miller, and he wants to deport every immigrant. Trump sits with hotel and farm owners, he wants to bring in more immigrants on visas for cheap and expendable labor.
The real story here is who is pulling on Trump's strings right now and why do they want to pull out of their Portland invasion.

Shit, we might get President Joe Rogan any day now
"Maybe he's not evil" is literally the thing everyone I've shared this with has said first lol "maybe he's just actually that stupid"
Evil that occurs as a result of stupidity is still evil.
Yeah, Hanlon's Razor only applies to the causal nature of something, not it's morality. That said, it is a principle that is supposed to inspire empathy, but for me only inspire increasing scorn and disgust for those in power. Especially since they can't even bother to do all the evil shit they want to do competently. They are evil and stupid and somehow because they have more money than God are in control of things.
The Trumpan Show (1998)
'Well wait a minute, am I watching things on television that are different from what's happening?
they are literally controlling him with a TV. God knows what he is watching too, some fake version of Fox News to make things look even worse
Don't forget this classic: "In Springfield, they're eating the dogs, the people that came in, they're eating the cats. They're eating, they’re eating the pets of the people that live there. And this is what's happening in our country, and it's a shame.
He's in a more evil version of those retirement homes where they trap senior citizens with fake bus stops
antifa wins this round 
Am I watching things on television that are different from what's happening?
Yankees say this, then find a different more obscure television thats somehow even more divorced from what's happening
That quote from him is amazing. It's got fierce competition with "time of whatever" and talking about going to hell and that thing about Elizabeth Warren's husband, but it's up there.
If you go take a look at the live camera feeds or recent drive-around footage of Portland, everything looks normal, there's literally nothing going on right now that would warrant even a fraction of that response. Protesting is basically non-existent right now, much less "war-ravaged" rioting.
"Since June 2025, more than two dozen people have been arrested in connection with protests". That's literally nothing, an average of around 1 person every 3 days. There's plenty of small short protests where way more than that get arrested.
It's so breathtakingly stupid. Motherfucker didn't bother to talk to the governer or anybody before telling everybody he was about to break the law and send troops. It's because of what he was watching on TV? It wasn't even some lanyard briefing him about privileged information??? At least Biden's mouth slowed him down when he had no idea what the fuck he was talking about.
This is what happened with Chicago. It feels like he forgot and just pushed it through without talking to his subordinates. He's used to being the boss of a company. I had an elderly boss before who would do stuff like that. He would come in, say we're doing something, something that he tried before but didn't work. The VP and other management had no idea. Once they found out it took a couple of days to talk him down and bring him back to reality.
These people spend like 30-40 years having their thoughts immediately acted upon by others. They're not used to slowing down and being critical. Once they get old they really lose it and don't/can't consider that they don't have the magic touch anymore.
Doubt it's tv he's getting these ideas from. It's X, which he rejoined right? The fascists just post complete misinformation on there about how cities are under siege and how horrible everything is and he just believes it.
Truthsocial. He posts/reposts like 40 times a day on there

GOOD post
The virgin adjusting your views after critically questioning previous information vs the chad inciting a civil war after slipping into fox-news induced delusion.
undiluted Boomer President
Is this not really a pipe?
Is there a video of him saying this? I tried to find the video and I only see other articles citing KGW.
the article says it was a phone interview, which afaict NBC has not published audio of.

Welcome to c/news! We aim to foster a book-club type environment for discussion and critical analysis of the news. Our policy objectives are:
-
To learn about and discuss meaningful news, analysis and perspectives from around the world, with a focus on news outside the Anglosphere and beyond what is normally seen in corporate media (e.g. anti-imperialist, anti-Zionist, Marxist, Indigenous, LGBTQ, people of colour).
-
To encourage community members to contribute commentary and for others to thoughtfully engage with this material.
-
To support healthy and good faith discussion as comrades, sharpening our analytical skills and helping one another better understand geopolitics.
We ask community members to appreciate the uncertainty inherent in critical analysis of current events, the need to constantly learn, and take part in the community with humility. None of us are the One True Leftist, not even you, the reader.
