Donald Trump ripped into Iran and Israel for violating a ceasefire deal within hours of his triumphant announcement.
“You basically have two countries that have been fighting so long and so hard that they don’t know what the f— they’re doing! Do you understand that?” he told reporters Tuesday morning on his way to the NATO summit in The Hague.
“Mission Accomplished”
Not that I don’t like to see him miserable but if saying fuck counts as a meltdown, I meltdown every time I speak. Honestly, its not even a signifier of stress, its more likely to signal your being genuine
Fucking hell, I’m having a meltdown in this very sentence.
Context matters. Someone using profanity more often than they otherwise would in the same context is generally a signifier of stress or excitement.
Eh… “Fuck” is just a filler word for most New York Natives in general.
How many times can you recall a president cursing when talking to reporters? Even Trump doesn’t curse much in his tweets or press briefings. So it’s definitely notable.
It’s one of those things. When you can’t find a better way to express your frustration as an educated person than resorting to dropping f-bombs, it is indicative of a low vocabulary.
Anyone else with a basic high-school education thrust into the spotlight would find a way to express themselves and their thought in a clear and cohesive way.
But they are obviously the ones who don’t know what the fuck they’re doing.
Yea. Its not that he used the word “fuck”. It is in the context of working with Netanyahu, then seeing that Netanyahu has no real respect for Trump or the US military as long as they support his wars. So Trump gets flustered realizing his Israeli buddy has no respect for the US and then says “fuck”. It just hows Trump has no international relations abilities and he doesn’t know what is going on.
Nice ego.
There was a time when I would’ve agreed with you. I still endeavour to this day to avoid profanity.
Today, however, I don’t agree that using “fuck” is at all an indicator of a low vocabulary (except in the case of overuse, but that’s true of any word). There are emotions that civil people aren’t supposed to feel, so we need words that we aren’t supposed to use to express them.
Fuck can be used to great effect, and should be.
There are no words that can express the same as curse words. Otherwise, we wouldn’t use them as much.
Words are words. And they are used to communicate. I don’t understand the American panic about this small set of words. They are words like any other.
Non-american countries also have some people that panic about curse words, but I don’t think they match the level of panic of Americans.
Your leaders curse to reporters? Lol, yea. I’m American but I am a dual citizen from Europe. No one is panicking here, but I appreciate your weird rant.
Ohhhh buddy , most of europe prides itself on their vast vocabulary of curse words/sentances and how they can say fuck your family in 50 different ways
There are actually studies that show intelligence and more explicit language go hand-in-hand, so it’s actually the opposite of your presumption. When I find it, I’ll link the study here in a comment edit.
[EDIT]
He seemed calmer than his normal demeanour
For fucks sake, me too.
(I apologise for the above meltdown)
Didn’t they settle everything in the middle east under his first term? The Saudis sent Trump’s inept, unqualified, security risk son in law nepotism hire Jared Kushner billions to manage afterward to get rich from to celebrate the long lasting peace they negotiated /s
Almost like the US hasn’t done anything fucked up to piss them off for decades…
Someone should probably explain to this moron that a tweet saying, “We’ll stop bombing them if they stop bombing us” doesn’t count as a “ceasefire deal”.
Almost like announcing something on “truth” social doesn’t automatically make it the truth. They probably didn’t even know anything about a cease fire until his post.
It’s an old grift. If you don’t want to actually do something, but you still want credit for doing it, then just say that you’re doing it. Many people will be tricked.
It’s the same reason the Nazis called themselves “socialists” despite never supporting socialism.
The 12 Day War cease fire ended in 12 Hours.
Fucking idiot
ICE will just round up some more brown people to make him feel better.
“You basically have two countries that have been fighting so long and so hard that they don’t know what the f— they’re doing! Do you understand that?” he told reporters Tuesday morning on his way to the NATO summit in The Hague.
Everybody has understood that for decades.
And now Trump has understood it for half a day. Being the way he is, this is a “Nobody knew…” moment.
If someone makes a parody Trump account just for his ‘TIL’ moments I’d subscribe in a heartbeat lol
The Media: “Coming up, more on our top story–Tr*mp’s brilliant deal! But first, the latest on Hollywood celebrities who you’ll never meet and who don’t affect you at all!”
I’m damn tired of how so many in this country just expect us to go along with this FARCE of a presidency.
MISSION ACCOMPLISHED.
He throws gas on a fire and doesn’t understand why it keeps burning?
Odd place to note his age? I mean, he’s been a dumbfuck for years, nothing new because he’s old.
