Endless reports of Trump melting down. Nothing about real news or change.
So sick of seeing that cheetoh-face dim-wit puppet. Dreaming of times when we never see it again.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

His tweets read like Donald Trump putting his own words into an LLM that edits text to sound like Donald Trump. Like he typed his normal nonsense into ChatGPT and said "make it sound smart but still like Donald Trump."
What could this guy do that could be illegal and punishable? What?
Trump: 60 Minutes is all lies and hate!
Faux News: Yeah, that's our thing!
“This is why we can’t elect women to power! They are too emotionally unstable and we’ll be in WW3 within a month!”
-Sexist chuds
Yeah, about that…
That's because, for some reason, people don't treat anger like an emotion
*male anger. Angry women are still emotional and hysterical.
Or rather they consider anger to be an emotion of strength, rather than one of fear
Yep, thank God A WOMAN doesn't have the nuclear codes. Just imagine how scary that would be.
Does anyone else remember when "senile old man yells at the TV" wasn't relevant political news*? I do. Can we please go back to those times?
Oh, pre-2016, how I miss you.
(It's relevant because he has toadies in place to enforce his insane whims).
I remember when hearing from the president was special and they would prepare a statement or speech. It made news because it was important and rare.
Now it's a multiple times a day occurrence of verbal diarrhea.
When people stop electing them into positions of massive power then yes, we can stop talking about them.
Except trump admitted the election was rigged.
And we’ve never really seen that go anywhere.
- with lack of well known evidence, I assume that there is no evidence of widespread direct fraud
- but we know there was voter suppression in many states. Why haven’t I seen anything about the impact of that?
- and we know there was vote buying, in any sane world, someone would be in jail already

He urged FCC Chair Brendan Carr, who was named to the position by Trump, to deliver “substantial” penalties to the network for what he called “unlawful and illegal behavior.”
“CBS is out of control, at levels never seen before, and they should pay a big price for this,” he wrote.
In Trump's mind, saying something he doesn't want you to say is "unlawful and illegal". And since both Congress and the Supreme Court have decided that he is never wrong, and law enforcement now operates by kidnapping people and trafficking them into life imprisonment and slavery without trial, that is the de facto reality.

This is fucked up and it's terrifying that's the new reality

Blatant threats of government retaliation against private citizens.
Clear violation of the First Amendment.
And nothing will happen.
Fuck Trump.

Cluster B personality disorders, specifically Narcissistic types, aren’t keen on truth, they create their own “truth” and gaslight anyone who contradicts that personal “truth”. Allegedly.
Cluster B, both borderline and narcissistic types, fear exposure of who and what they really are at baseline. The difference is a borderline will turn that anger and madness inward, possibly to the point of self harm and suicide, while the narcissistic type will turn that anger and vitriol at the source of potential or real exposure of truth. Allegedly.
It gets even weirder: a narcissists sense of reality checking is impaired such that they are unable to accept facts that contradict their viewpoint. If their statements/opinions collide with reality, they dismiss it as they hold themselves above reality. They don't / can't learn as this would imply there are gaps in their knowledge and whoever is the messenger of such contradicting facts will incur wrath to allow them to heal, no matter how tactful this is brought to them. Narcissists don't lie (in their mind) and this is akin to something like psychosis or delusion. This is different from psychopaths who are aware of their lies but the motivation differs in that a psychopath does it for external gain (to obtain a goal) whereas narcissists do this for internal gains (so called narcissists supply - feeding the ego). One could speculate that a narcissistic autocrat and his followers (Trump and MAGAs) suffer from shared psychosis.

Hitler was notorious for his temper tantrums. He is confirmed to have watched Charlie Chaplin's iconic 1940 film 'Thr Great Dictator' but never said or wrote what he thought of it. Charlie Chaplin said that he would have given anything to know what he thought of it.
Trump is born almost exactly 1 year later after hitlers death coincidence? Reincarnation baby, no quick saves.

"maximum fines and punishment"
Sure. Those are both 0, jackass.
He should just go ahead and have that stroke he's been foreshadowing for years.
Science will later tell us he was having a 60-year-long stroke. Ironically, the “greatest” stroke of all time.
“They are not a ‘News Show,’ but a dishonest Political Operative simply disguised as ‘News,’ and must be responsible for what they have done, and are doing,” the president wrote.
Isn't this clown being sued by the same firm that sued Fox "News" and won?
Trump needs to be removed from office and we should be out in the streets calling for nothing less
This guy has himself surrounded by yes men and is locked into his own disinformation bubble for most of the time. Getting a glimpse of what people who aren't kissing his ass really are thinking about him must have been quite the whiplash for his tiny sick mind to take.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe this is the 60 minutes in question?
This week on The Americans, they discover that they elected the old man who yells at the TV! Hilarity ensues when he chucks the remote and breaks the screen then goes on a wacky adventure to buy another TV under the new tariffs!
We need to protect these 60 minutes people. They’re very brave and patriotic. We owe them protection for their service to America right now
“They are not a ‘News Show,’ but a dishonest Political Operative simply disguised as ‘News’”
Shocked pikachu used “projecting”
I thought this was the onion for a good 2 seconds.
