Are we ever going to get to a point in this country when we understand that the man below has a whole reality he's created in his head that has no connection to the one we live in—that no one can dissuade him from—but that every fake emergency he declares to expand his powers draws exclusively from?
What? No 24/7 news cycle on how this dude is an unfit fucking moron? And has *been* a fucking moron! This is basic shit.
Look at his face as he speaks. The guy is way past it. He's not just lying. He has no idea what he is talking about or what those numbers represent.
I dare Trump to make an EO that reduces drug prices this far. It would be hilarious.
So he is going to make all medication free?
It should be criminal to be this ignorant. And this is the best GOP has to offer???
How can such a stupid and clueless individual make people ruin their life for him? He's a case study in social psychology for sure. Usualy cult leaders have some kind of intellect, maybe im wrong on this tho.
His fragile narcissistic ego has been coddled and sucked up and onto for so long I’ve always believed he actually believes most of the insane shit he spews out. When the MAGA media try to say otherwise, they are either fooling themselves or trying to fool us.
From the looks of him, he won't be around long
It's terrifying that Trump first revealed he doesn't understand how percentages work weeks and weeks ago and it was a significant news story across the country, yet not a single person who works for him had the wherewithal or the courage or the freedom to correct him in a way that he could even hear
Maybe the 25th amendment process starts with Trump repeatedly forgetting Just Dance Vance’s name before the VO seizes that moment to save Merica. And then the billionaires rejoiced their bought and paid for bet paid off!
That’s how you deal with Alzheimer’s patients; waste of time trying to correct them. They’ll soon be staging phony press conferences, speeches etc. so he can play Dictator & feel important. Then they’ll shove him on to the nearest golf course!
I have to wonder if anyone even bothered to try. And the fact that our so-called journalists in the WH Press Corp never once asked him about it is the epitome of failing at their jobs. (I'm having trouble suppressing my rage at the media today.)
Nobody around him wants to lose their job. They would rather save their jobs than save the country.
Not ONE reporter: “Mr. President how would a 1500% reduction actually work?
IMO it’s not that he doesn’t hear - rather it’s that he doesn’t listen and moreover he is NOT interested in any narrative that collides with the narrative he’s crafted
He probably confuses increases and cuts. You’re right the fact that no one told him is terrifying, or maybe worse, he decided his math is the best math.
All fun and games in the TL. Meanwhile he is still there. The whole gvrnmnt is still there. You.have.concentration. camps! Fascism has taken over. WHY? Who’s really fighting this? Literally fighting. Oh. No one.
Not one person in the room points out that it's impossible to reduce the price of anything by 1500%.
If only the SCOTUS didn't share his delusion...
I'm looking forward to getting a check with my pills, now that chicken is $19.00 a fucking pound.
As you clearly demonstrate, Mr. Abramson, we are at that point because you and it seems quite a few others do understand this well... the problem really stems from those who either have come to share his alternate, ever-evolving by whim and malice, reality and those who just like what he is doing...
Isn’t insistent belief in a make-believe world a sign of psychosis that would SURELY prevent one from serving in the #1 position in our country?!!
Yup, just like how importing lumber from Canada is now a national security issue. He just throws around stuff like this, and the press nod sagely, and scribble their notes. It is infuriating that nobody calls him out!
MORON PEDOPHILE CRIMINAL FELON RAPIST OF 13 YEAR OLD GIRLS LIES FOR PROFIT THIEF LISTEN TO THE VICTIMS NOT THE ACCOMPLICES
heck, we all cannot wait to be paid to take our medicines, at a profit even. What a nice side hustle piece of change that's gonna be. 1,500 percent off my drugs? AND THEY DON'T CALL HIM OUT ON HIS CRAZY. They smile, they nod. Good grief. Tick tock...death is on its way. Release the Epstein files.
After watching Mr. McMahon and The Family on Netflix, all that's happening in the US makes sense. Also, I believe Vince McMahon would've been a better president. 🤷🏼
Unfortunately it’s working for him.
Thank you! I’ve been saying that for a long time but I don’t have much reach, but you do. This should be repeated every single day.
I don’t think it’s a reality in his head. He only thinks in terms of snake oil salesmanship. Reality, even his own reality, has nothing to do with it. He’s lying to makes a sale. Always.
with all the vileness and cruelty, it's easy to forget that he paints his own face orange every single day and can't complete a coherent sentence. history will not just revile him and his cult. it will ridicule them.
Yeah it's called a Fox News fan
Drugs will be free!
The elites are getting rich from his rule, and the not so rich Whites are getting the satisfaction of having a President who panders to their racial and other prejudices. So I fear we are going to have to ride this streetcar right down to the end of the line.
The most perfect analysis of the 🍊🤡 administration that I have ever heard. Thank you
it’s so awful to have to live in this Emperor Has No Clothes Groundhog Day country
And when the hell will a reporter in the room ask him how that world work vs just ignoring the senile old man's rants and treat them as normal?
I agree, but he has the nuclear codes & extreme mental issues. Our country is in very serious danger. The people he has put in charge are not qualified to run a dog pound, let alone the country!! WTAF are we going to do??? #RESIST #PROTEST #VOTEBLUETOSAVEDEMOCRACY If not, we are all so screwed 🤬🤬🤬
No.
It’s not even that he “created” a different reality in his head vs the one he knows is outside …. It just IS His world IS the only world He knows no other He’s wrong never He’s omnipotent
They support this unfortunate circumstance because it furthers their own agenda. Period. They know the stench for what it is.
I’ll bet someone mentioned a drug that costs 1000% more for Americans to buy than it does to actually make so he just flipped that number in his idiotic brain.
That makes sense. He's still an idiot.
This 100%! We all really really need to grasp that Trump speaks and acts only ON HIS OWN PERSONAL BEHALF and in his mind, he is dictator. I’m telling you, Trump (gleefully) believes he has been accepted into the Strongman Club (with Putin, Orban, etc). He is more dangerous than ever.
I’m sure he believes he lives in a world created in his head from things he watches on television and in movies. In his world he is the ultimate hero.
End this presidency now.
🏳️🌈🇺🇦🩵Please someone teach that man percentages 🫣
That assessment describes a paranoid sociopath...demented individual who has no sense of reality...only his own and it's a narrow unsupported view. Mental illness plagues this unfit individual. Going forward, there should be a psychological test that is mandatory for all candidates for office.
The emergency's going to be real enough when he calls out the Military and Natl. Guard to suppress citizen protests after he cheats at the mid-term elections. He's turning the US into a 3rd world banana republic
This is like listening to my crazy uncle who thinks he's a balloon and my name is Elizabeth when he's off his meds. Eventually you just turn on the "uh huh" responses while he yammers on. This one is a puppet. There isn't enough of his mind left to craft this on his own. Smart money's on Miller.
Nope. Most of the press is cowering in fear.
No.
Are we taking bets on how long before they try to pass off AI videos of Trump as real?
A la Weekend At Bernie's...
That press conference was insane. He was more confused than Biden at the debate, he lied dozens of times, he was trying to hide a massive bruise on his hand and we had multiple authoritarian threats. Half the press love it, the rest are terrified of him.
Not sure it’s a delusion. It may be a construct devised by or fed to him and whoever created it (Putin/Miller) knows it sells in Peoria and Akron. Bc it seems implausible that he could keep hitting home runs with red America if he were only winning by chance as opposed to by plan, scheme and lies.
Seth: "Presumption of Regularity": There is nothing regular about him or his admin. Clearly they are not entitled to it. How can this be overcome? Who can do it? Etc.
we understand he's insane, if that's what you're asking. But not much is likely to change because those around him have learned to manipulate him & usurp some of his power, in my opinion.
Exactly, and to hell with the rest of us!! 🤬
His brain is the consistency of the overnight oats I had for breakfast
Not as long as paranoid delusional, Republicans continue to enable his cult of stupidity and corruption because billionaires told them to.
Oh goodie, I want that 1500% decrease please, your majesty .You're the dope !

Sigh - he said this again. Utterly delusional, ignorant, lying, dementia-ridden international embarrassment.

They don’t care if something is true or even possible. They just want their base to think so bc it sounds so amazing.
grimey grifter needs to reduce himself into the pile of debris he really is..🤮😱🔥💙
not until the billionaires that own the media allow it
no one can explain to him basic math
He won’t listen to anyone who bothers to try.
He’s giving 110%.
You can’t fix stupid
Nope! Only with people such as yourself keeping the populace informed, because the mainstream media isn't worth a shit. Journalists aren't even allowed to write that Trump lied, aren't given the opportunity to ask relevant questions, or call him out on his lies.
I can't wait to make $1,000 on a prescription!
What bothers me so much is that people, some of them with more intelligence, actually support him, voted for him & work for him. I really wonder if he actually won, or did Kamala?
Great,now we can drug ourselves into wealth. Where do I sign up for a shitload of prescriptions?
Oh, numbers have no meaning in that empty noggin of his. He just floats them around and uses them in whatever fashion divorced from the real world that he sees fit.
Here is an explicit example of a governor who SAID EXACTLY THE RIGHT THING: bsky.app/profile/acyn... Is it a surprise to most people that Trump ASKS for verbal approval from a governor BEFORE SENDING TROOPS to an imaginary "emergency"?
1500%. ;)
So he’s saying, “Our prescription medication will be free”
With 1,500% discounts they'll be paying US thousands to do drugs. Let that sink in.
When you drop the price more than 100%, it means the pharmas will be paying us to take the medicines
I think everyone knows but since his bat shit supporters like his version better, and his republican co conspirators can make money or gain power for their own Christo-fascist agenda, they don't care. Democrats are too busy infighting and blindfolding themselves.
Math is hard
Over the period of the last 10 years, he is lied so consistency that now saying you’re going to reduce something by 100% has no meaning it has no impact. It’s gotta be 1500% now.
Many mental health professionals tried to warn about it, but Jeffrey Lieberman, former head of the APA & disgraced former head of Columbia Psychiatry, squashed any meaningful public education of the dangers. www.madinamerica.com/2020/04/muzz...
So we will be paid to take them?
Good I can use the money to pay for our health insurance. 🙄
its about time. They've made billions off us...
