    Even if I assume Trump is telling the truth, that’s what we need as a president! Someone who sarcastically says one thing and only reveal it as a joke later when the people get confused. Shout out to when Trump told everyone to inject themselves with bleach to cure COVID-19. Gee, I wonder why people take his words seriously, it’s not like he’s the most powerful man in the world and should make absolutely clear that something is joke if you’re going to make one

      To this day it may be the single dumbest thing he has ever said, and that is saying something. Don’t forget he said at the same time something about “shining the light on the inside” when he learned that UV rays kill COVID.

          He did make one of his TV producer partners head of the intelligence service though, which went about as well as expected, with Kyiv literally the last to be told that Russia had invaded despite weeks of buildup.

      Could also be that he wanted this Dana White, this Dana White said no, and so now Trump is trying to pretend like nobody said “no” to him because it was “just a prank bro.”

      What a surprise, Trump doesn’t like people telling him “no.”

    It’s always a “joke” when there is backlash. Like his reptilian co-workers, he has no spine.

    Just think. There could have been an unstable woman in charge in 2025. Blasted libs!

    Charge every one of them, all the way to the top.

    Everyone needs to unilaterally stop reporting on him. Press pool needs to pack up and go home. Just total press blackout.

      Not sure if serious but no, absolutely not. We need to know about all of the unbelievably dumb and crooked shit he does.

        But the problem is that he makes so much shit up, lies, gets so many things wrong, that he’s completely unreliable. Like this Dana White thing. Sure, report what the cabinet members say, what other officials say, but at this point he’s just trolling. And when he spews verbal diarrhea, it affects the magats, the stock market, our image worldwide, and the reporting just has so be walked back when he says, “ha ha, just kidding. And you rubes fell for it.” It’s exhausting and damaging.
