“Project Freedom” was only in force for a day.

    I’m sure I’m not the only one but I hate to listen to audio of him. His voice grates on my nerves, his thought patterns make feel like I’m getting dumber by the day every time I hear him speak, and it’s cringe worthy that a certain percentage of the population feel like he is an intelligent person.

      I can relate. We had our own trump-wannabe running things in Brazil for 4 years. I couldn’t stand hearing his voice (or of any of his shitty sons), it made my blood boil.

    Remember that republican could stop him at any time. This isn’t about Trump anymore - he isn’t running for re-election so disapproval has no direct effect. The only way we have in our legal framework to stop an insane authoritarian in the white house is for Congress to stop him. Their abdication of duty need to be laid at the feet of every R in office

      I completely agree except for the disapproval rating. I haven’t done the math but I’d suspect that a sitting president’s disapproval rating affect tickets down the ballot. Although that may just be wishful thinking.

    CNN anchor John Berman said Tuesday as the news broke. “We think that’s what the administration announced just moments ago.”

    No one is entirely sure exactly what the Dementia in Chief is ever saying.

    Macron added, “We are not going to take part in any forceful operation within a framework that does not seem clear to me.”

    Others have said Trump risks “humiliation in full view of the world.”

    That implies that he hasn’t already been an embarrassment multiple times prior to this.

        Why would he fuck with his embarrassment streak? Not like he has the cognitive capacity to understand what’s happening.

          He’s aced three cognitive tests, and he can tell the difference between a lion, bear, alligator, and…he thinks it was a squirrel, so that proves he’s the smartest president ever.

      He’s moving from being an embarrassment to being downright dangerous.

      He’s been dangerous to us for a long time, but now he is damaging every other country on the planet. Can’t one of those foreign intelligence agencies deploy an operative to “handle” this situation decisively? Please?

        A foreign agency has already been handling your leader—that’s kind of the problem.

        They can’t? Russian foreign intelligence put him in power in the first place and this generously assumes that billionaires don’t control these intelligence agencies

        Oh sure. No one outside of the USA elected him into office twice, but yeah, lets risk our people for your gleefully continued fuck ups. Put on your big boy pants and take out your own trash.

          Dude, I’m not asking you to save US from him, I’m asking you to save YOU from him. He’s now inflicting damage on YOUR country, too. I’m sure of that, and I don’t even know where you live, but wherever it is, he’s hurting you somehow.

    92-word sentence. I counted 92 words.

    This is a man who just starts talking/writing, and doesn’t really think about what he’s going to say, but just rolls with it.

    It’s like pressing the next word suggestion on your phone keyboard and talking like that.

      He doesn’t even have a plan to end the current sentence he’s working on and people wanted to trust him with military plans.

        I strongly believe that he doesn’t run his own socials, and never did while president. Possibly right at the very beginning.

        Edit: ahh. Ehh. You know what, I don’t even know. Could be him.

    Why does he keep singing his own tweets? We know it’s him. His name is on the top.

    Trump realised he doesn’t actually like freedom, at least not for others
