    Do you think he consciously asks himself “How do I make this about me?” or is it just a well-honed reflex?

    When Trump dies, they better hide where his remains are interred like Genghis Khan or risk turning it into the world’s most popular toilet.

    His age is really showing, isn’t it? He—once again—misspelled “gilded age” as “golden age”

      What?

      “Golden Age” is a thing people say. The “Gilded Age” also was a period of American history, but President Tang wasn’t making a reference to Mark Twain.

      Of all the things to criticize the idiot over…

        What the Trump admin put the country into isn’t a golden age, but instead something more akin to a repeat of the Gilded Age, with its rampant political corruption and extreme wealth disparity. The joke is that he meant to say “Gilded Age”—which is the more accurate comparison—but is so out of it that he instead said “Golden Age”.

          Fair enough, I guess the “intentionality” threw me off.

          I wouldn’t expect Trump to know about the Gilded Age (much less to align his administration with its corruption). My brain stopped at “that’s like a 10th grade school mistake, while Trump is usually stumbling around grade 4.”

        I think this is a “woosh” on your part. OP seems to have been joking about how this is a gilded age–not a golden one.

      The subtext is clear: if you dare speak out against me, your children will murder you. You see what happens Larry? You see what happens?

      You can talk about locking up, assaulting, or murdering people you don’t like for exercising their right to free speech. But, the moment you quote a dead hatemonger you are going to lose everything!

    With Reiner’s son being the main suspect, Trump could have just called him a lousy father if he really needed to speak ill of the dead. But no, he had to make it about himself somehow.

      Partially because he was deplatformed. People weren’t constantly reminded of his craziness for four years.

          It wasn’t quite that often and it wasn’t a new thing every time. It was usually the same thing over and over. Some new advancement in the investigations.

      They legally cheated with gerrymandering and throw in a little of illegal by his minions as well. They cheated in 2020 too, it just wasn’t good enough.

        Gerrymandering only explains how he can win the Electoral College. It doesn’t explain 77.3 million Americans going “yeah, I’ll vote for that.”

          Gerrymandering only affects the House. For the Senate and the Electoral College, the district boundaries are fixed as the state boundaries. (I’m not saying that low population states don’t have a disproportionate influence in either body, I’m just saying the boundaries are fixed.)

          Did you notice that every accusation is a confession? I would look at the voting machines his minions (musk, election officials, etc.) had power over.

          more people voted for Trump than live in the UK.

          just Trump voters alone would make them the 4th most populous country in Europe. it’s fucking INSANE.
