A source close to the MAGA administration suggested the president’s “deals” are all theatrics.

Duh.
Is this the con man’s way out of his disastrous economy
shocked…,not
Not surprised.
Reality TV. That's his real passion. Apparently his Apprentice show was #1 in the ratings at some point & he yearns to repeat that success. 😡
No shit.
Nah 😱 it can't be 🙄
And water is wet. Who did not know this?
Ya think?!!!
Fat druggie Elon Musk, misogynist,racist,fascist, is in war of words with fat drunken slob Steve Bannon,misogynist,racist,fascist.Interesting that SB opposes EM starting a political party cuz he's a foreigner while Kushner gets $billions from S Arabia & Trump will approve SArabia buying the PGA!
Okay, Captain Obvious.
yep it’s all performative dick wagging for this mushroom dick.
"And that's the outside scoop - thanks for your report, Captain Obvious!"
Having all these TV people in cabinet isn't just because he's an idiot that doesn't know anyone else. It's also having people around who can craft a TV product.
And his cabinet & VP are 25th Amendment proof. He can continue his mental decline in peace.
Pretty obvious to anyone who's been paying attention. Still the news orgs, including the local news, keep slobbering all over themselves to report about these "deals". Like any of this is actually normal, when he created the whole damn problem in the first place.
D’UH!!
Nooooooo…. Whaaaaa????
Seriously, is anyone surprised?
It becomes apparent each time they say they have a deal with so-and-so, who then says they haven’t a clue what the US is talking about.
You mean it's all a lie? 🤣🤣🤣
Surely, you jest.
Ya think? 🥴
Well duh. He can’t make deals, he’s too stupid.
Of course they are. The entire presidency is his personal reality show-he is the producer & star. Each episode planned for maximum attention, maximum ratings, maximum grifting. He does ZERO things to help the American people. It’s always & only about the attention. #performancepolitics
Ya think?
I’m glad that someone’s checking it out for certain, but I think everybody already knew this.
Trump’s entire career is a fake, why would anything be any different now.
Noooooo. You dont say!
Deflect & distract
With Trump, if it's not flim, it's flam.
He's trying to project an aura of arrogant infallibity but has no chops to make it happen. Result: buffonery and the entire world laughing at him. There's a joke in this, and he's the only one who doesn't get it.
It’s extortion, it’s always been extortion. I don’t understand why he didn’t just extort Silicon Valley and the other billionaires.
Just look at Bessent’s eyes and body language every time his interviewed about tariffs.
Surprise!
The entire administration is all theatrics come on.
Gee, d’ya think?
Theatrics to help his rich friends buy the dip in the market time and again,
Well duuuuuh- how long did it take you to figure it out??
And who was this surprising to?
But he is real stoopid..
Duh
File this under “No shit, Sherlock”
No kidding?
Just noticed? Damn I thought the Daily Beast was just a little shaper then this
Well duh. If this was serious, Wall Street would be worried. But they know this is theatrics. Which is why he has the name of TACO.
It probably is fake. It’s just a beta trying to look like an alpha and a dumbass trying to look like he has a brain. And of course, it will keep the lights shining on him. He is a Rhine Stone drama queen!
Shocked. Shocked!
I hate to say it but I'm starting to get the impression that this Donald Trump guy is lying to us! Do you know what I'm saying Bubba?
Nah, just give it two weeks
Shocking.
That’s obviously clear to everyone who can think and understand what a con artist is but it’s not for the general public, just the maga cult who are brainwashed to believe anything and everything that comes out of that felon
TACO has a rep. And people are finally getting wise to it
How is this a surprise to anyone, the Orange One acts like this is a reality TV show, it’s mind boggling
WITH,, ALL,, Makeup. TaxpYers can BUY
Like everything else he does. All hat. No cattle.
That’s why I say ya I get that people on news and opinion shows are aiming at creating “constructive conversation” but normalizing these nonsensical ramblings are not helping they are only stalling for time… Every news and opinion show or outlet? No, but a majority? Yes, Why, idk? Have some guesses.
Lol! *clutches pearls*. Say it ain’t so! lol!
Duh
Wall Street certainly has figured this out. Thankfully.
YA DON’T SAY!
Ya think
There is no place in journalism any longer to protect sources. If you have credible info from credible people at some point SOMEBODY must go on the record despite "fear of reprisals." Otherwise, your reporting will be ignored or dismissed as "gossip." Teachers & poll workers are that brave.
No shit Sherlock.
Of course they are. He’s a fake businessman that had a fake show about a fake company. He conned a whole bunch of stupid and greedy people into thinking he had skills when he actually has none. He blathers, he yells and he stomps his little feet, but he can’t make real deals. He’s a moron.
No fucking shit. Everyone with a brain knows that. How come the media doesn't?
I am speechless from surprise.
Duh.
I never believed they existed, everything is a lie in this regime!
It's leading to higher prices whatever it is.
Does this source's name happen to be "Captain Obvious"?
You think we all didn’t already know that?
Go Read David Cay Johnston, LA Times, 1978-81. Same Drumpf.
We know.
Ya think?
He is so disgusting… felon traitor
Duh.
Pretty sure we knew that 🙄
I’m surprised it’s taking people this long to figure that out
No! Really?
Really
No one is surprised
Shocker!
No shit, Sherlock
Duhhhh! Yaaa think???🤔
Really? Oh. My. Gosh. Now, where did I leave my surprised face?
Obvi
We watched him drop a bunch of blank pieces of paper when holding up his deal with the UK
I am shocked--SHOCKED-- to find lying in this Administration.
"I'd like to make it shorter." – Donald Trump bsky.app/profile/thed...
You think? Well I never! Trump couldn’t make a deal if he tried! He has the moniker TACO for a reason! He makes ‘deals’ when better people fold!
Yep! I was about to say the same!!
Those ‘deals’ are almost certainly better described as Godfather deals albeit without the horses head!
Duh!
Ya think? Derrrrrr
Gee, who could have guessed? 🙄
It doesn't take an insider to see that. Consider the Vietnam agreement that is totally in favour of them and not the US 🤣
As published in "DUH" magazine
Dear God. He’s going to completely crash the economy for ratings.
I never thought of them as anything else.
No, really... 🙄 And this is "news"?
Of course.
Ya think?
You don’t say…
No, the tariff theatrics are not the most interesting part. The most interesting part is how quickly the Turdists are turning the US into a fascist American Reich.
Shock horror! President Trump is a lying twat......
Imagine that...but maga believe the lies. Maga is misinformed, brainwashed,and severely lack intelligence and critical thinking skills.
...and full of racism, misogyny and bigotry. Like kind cleaves to like kind.
Apparently the press believes them too.
Nah press doesn’t believe them. Social media and the press have monetized our attention, and plan to keep going
He's panicking due to no deals at all before his deadline.
With 100% certainty I can guarantee that President Trump’s “deals” are not only theatrics to the many whose lives are being ruined and the very few wealthy who are now more wealthy because of his deals.
Thanks for that inside info, Cap'n O.
Did anyone really ever think otherwise?
Trump continues to huff and bluff. A lot of his peace deals aren't going to hold up -- but Trump has a need to believe that he is thee ordained peacemaker.
No shit, TACO.
Duh.
His WHOLE ADMINISTRATION is theatrics.
Suggested?
Also, water is wet and bears shit in the woods.
I find that hard to believe, you could see on The Apprentice that he was a successful businessman.
was his name Captain Obvious?
He is all fake.
Shocking.
Of course; he is essentially recirculating previous deals as new ones… when at times nothing changes! It is all a rouse…
Ya don’t say
Nothing new!
No shit!
we don’t need an insider for that. India and China have both said so recently
Oh, I think people are well aware.
As fake as his "sun tan" and as vapid as his "big bullshit bill".
What. A. Surprise 🙄
Fire up the polygraphs. It’s going to be a long week with all govt resources exclusively focused on routing out this “traitor”. Find Capt Queeg’s strawberries!
Shocking!!! 😮
Fake means Lies
Well don't exist
The markets have figured that out and so have most of the rest of us. He is an embarrassment.
Duh
Tell us something we don't already know. He's a convicted fraud who doesn't even attempt hiding his grifting.
Tell us something we don't know.
We all knew it was all BS
So don't cover anything he says or does, problem solved. Doesn't mean don't watch what he and his cronies do, just don't cover it unless it's illegal. Oh wait, NVM
Except the impact of tariffs isn't fake
good thing there are no real world effects
Would be consistent with behavior towards medical standards, environment, economic system, constitution, and so on. Dark. 😶
Gee, no shit.
oh, i had no idea...
well now that he’s lied to me for the first time, he’s lost my vote in 2028
NO WAY!! lol
Surprised? I thought it was just Taco.
Jacked up prices aren’t theatrics.
No kidding! Trump's as dumb as a box of rocks. Clearly, everything he does is like a low rated TV show..
I’m glad someone close to him is disclosing it, but you knew that. We all did. Trump says whatever will get him positive feedback from magas and correctly assumes that they have the same focus of a flea that he has and will never check later to see if his statements prove true. Tissue of lies
Anyone who listens to the fascist GOP is a self-destructive idiot.
Obviously
I’d like to be shocked but I’m not even surprised.
Ya think???
47 devious manipulation of the media!!
Duh!!!
No shit Sherlock, anyone who has known about Trump since his “apprentice” days know this well
No shi&. For insider trading.
Oh. Gee. Ya think????
Trumps idea of a good deal is not to pay his contractors & suppliers
Shocking if true
Just another episode of The Apprentice. When will we finally be able to yell "You're fired!"?
I wouldn’t be surprised if any “deals”’the orange shitgibbon “makes” are exactly what we had before or worse. What else would you expect from an utter failure trust fund baby?
clearly
no way!!!
The Trump administration guilty of theatrics?! (gasp)
Most of the country knows he's a liar.
No shit!
Manufactured crisis with a pretend plan to fix the problem, not unlike a firefighter arsonist. Applies to the border, tariffs, dog- eating Haitian immigrants, NAFTA, Iran nuclear program, etc.
Get outta here! What's next, someone trying to claim he's not really 6'3" and 215#? His tan is fake? That thing on his head is hair? He doesn't look like Elvis's identical twin? Color me just stunned.
No shit!
Uhhh ....no shit
Obviously. This whole regime is bullshit
Well, now he’s going to send letters. Could it be that no one will actually deal with him?
Lying ?
