Here come the "deals!"

[Mac1958]

Oooo! Trump's tariff frenzy is wreaking havoc with the economy, and his worshippers are in a tizzy!

Trump tells them that they're "winning".

MAGA media tells them that they're "winning".

They tell each other that they're "winning".

They tell themselves that they're "winning".

So, they think they're winning. Absolutely incredible.

Trump promised 90 deals in 90 days. So far, nothing.
Now he’s saying he’ll just send out letters.

Wow, do they allow people to connect to the actual internet up there in Canada? Or do you just get to connect to the Canadanet like they do in north korea to be fed state news.

Meanwhile, I bet Trump must be on deal 300.

Just one of the blowhard's failures, after his repeated boasts that he could end the war in Ukraine "immediately," has proven to be a learning opportunity for Kim Jung Un's troops. Of course, before Trump, North Koreans invading Europe would have been inconceivable.

North Korean troops' progress — especially in drone warfare — has potential implications not only for Russia's war on Ukraine but also peace on the Korean Peninsula.​

Across the border from Kursk, in Ukraine's northeastern Sumy region, Ukrainian soldiers who battled those soldiers described how the North Koreans went from suffering massive losses to learning electronic warfare.​

​

They went from using World War II tactics to managing on the battlefield with drones," Capt. Oleh Shyriaiev, commander of the 225th Separate Assault Brigade, told NPR. "And they learned very quickly."​

​

Russia has now regained control of nearly all of Kursk. As ceasefire efforts stall, Ukraine's defense intelligence has already warned that Russia could deploy North Korean soldiers in a new ground offensive this summer...​

I do wonder if Trump, in his heart of hearts (so to speak), knows what foreign leaders and their people think of him.

He may believe what the flock believes, that he is revered and respected around the world as a great statesman.

Most of the world is not deluded by him.

Majority of countries have ‘no confidence’ in Trump’s abilities​

The lesson here is that a bullying, transactional foreign policy, headed by an ignorant, arrogant buffoon, is not a good idea for America.

Will we learn that? If I had to bet, I doubt it.

Any attempt at inserting some reality into the winning celebrations is met with cries of “fake news”.

I’m loving Broke Loser’s thread on “Trump can’t be trusted”. Like this is news.

We’ve all been saying the same thing, with links to back it up, for 10 years now.

There are always a few who manage to escape a cult. There are always a few who make some noise to save their self esteem, but stay.

The rest are a much longer process. For some, they never let it go.

Like Trump, the flock doesn't think there's anything wrong with the long list of dishonest, unpresidential, juvenile, unconstitutional, illegal things that he does. You could list them off and they'd back every one. That's what makes this a cult.

The tawdry spectacle of weaklings worshiping a blustering bullyboy is an embarrassment for America.

Where did the blowhard's Black immigrants eating their neighbors' pet cats and dogs ever go?

Trumps weakness and incompetence have never been more exposed than they have in the past week. Even his own staffers are overriding his policy statements and demanding anyone without a work permit be deported.

I don’t recall anyone when Biden was president telling people that Biden’s policy statements and directives and orders were to be ignored.

Trump tells ICE not to deport farm workers or restaurant workers and Steven Miller says ignore him. These are the same people who kept asking who was in charge when Biden was president.

Yesterday Trump had to be led off stage when he started ranting about things that never happened and blaming Trudeau for the Ukrainian war starting when Trudeau wasn’t even in office when it started.

But Joe Biden was senile. At least Biden knew who started the war.
