Trump is not just ignorant about history, science, and reality itself, he is also mathematically illiterate. I also notice that his followers are equally innumerate as they swallow the ridiculous fake facts and figures Trump and his trucklers throw at them without question.
Let us begin.
1) Claim: “We’re gonna get the drug prices down — not 30 or 40 percent, which would be great. Not 50 or 60, no. We’re gonna get them down 1,000 percent, 600 percent, 500 percent, 1,500 percent. Numbers that are not even thought to be achievable.”
FACT: No matter how wildly random you throw out magic numbers, reducing any price down more than 100 percent is quite literally unachievable.
Link: Trump is promising to slash drug prices by 1,500%.
2) CLAIM: "Since you have been in office, President Trump, your DOJ agencies have seized more than 22 million fentanyl pills, 3400 kilos of fentanyl, since you've been here last hundred days, which saved (turns and looks at assembled press, 'Are you ready for this, media?'), 258 million lives."
FACT: Every Trump Cabinet meeting is an embarrassing display of Politboro-level bootlicking of Donald Trump as he preens and glows at the attention. However, Pam Bondi set a new low with her claim that Donald Trump personally saved the lives of 75 percent of the US population.
LINK: Bondi Far Overstates the Impact of Fentanyl Seizures on American Lives
3) Claim: “Every boat we knock out, we save 25,000 American lives.”
FACT: Trump repeatedly makes the claim that for every alleged Venezuelan drug-running boat blown up, 25K American lives are saved. However, the maximum estimate of drug overdose deaths in 2024 was 80K. Therefore, it would take only blowing up three or four boats and we would have no more drug deaths! Yay!
What's more, fentanyl doesn't come from Venezuela. It comes from Mexico.
Link: There's no proof each strike on alleged drug boats saves 25,000 lives, as Trump claims
Feel free to add more fun math facts from the Trump Administration.

So much better on video............Trump is not just ignorant about history, science, and reality itself, he is also mathematically illiterate.

Yes, we are laughing at his stupidity. But the fact that he is president makes his embarrassing stupidity a bit less funny.Trump's exaggerations are often so off-the-wall that they are funny.
It depends if he is comparing prices elsewhere on the planet.I provided facts, rube. Wakey wakey!
Figure of speech. Is that what lies are called these days?FACT: Very low IQ people often lack the cognitive flexibility and abstract reasoning skills required to recognize and comprehend figurative speech.
OR.................Other PLANETS?It depends if he is comparing prices elsewhere on the planet.
And with realtor fees and such … you LOSE moneyMoar MAGA Math:
Our billionaire president claims there is no affordability crisis. No one has ever been more out of touch with the electorate.
Home prices are at record highs, forcing many of his supporters to live in their mothers' basements, or forcing other supporters to endure their 30-something kids to live with them.
Our crass demented president's solution to this problem?
50-year mortgages.
So let's do some math.
If you borrow $400,000 for a house at 4.5% interest for 30 years, your monthly payment (ignoring taxes and such) will be $2026.74.
If you borrow $400,000 for a house at 4.5% interest for 50 years, your monthly payment (ignoring taxes and such) will be $1677.56.
You're saving about $350 a month, right?
Sucker!
Over the course of the 30-year loan, you will pay $729,626.85 to the bank. On your $400,000 loan the bank nets a $329,626.85 profit.
Over the course of the 50-year loan, you will pay $1,006,535.44 to the bank. On your $400,000 loan the bank nets a $606,535.44 profit!
Now you may be thinking you won't actually live in that house for the next 50 years, so having a lower monthly payment is a win.
Here's the thing about amortization. In the beginning, most of your monthly payment goes toward the interest, and barely makes a ding in the principal.
The average home owner sells their house or refinances after 8 years.
After 8 years, the remaining principal balance on a $400,000 mortgage at 4.5% interest on a 30-year term will be approximately $309,600. You've knocked out almost a quarter of your principal.
After 8 years on a $400,000, 50-year mortgage at 4.5% interest, the remaining principal balance will be approximately $380,314.90. You still owe almost as much as you borrowed!
More and more of his supporters are catching on.
Trump calls 50-year mortgages no 'big deal' as right-wing conservatives balk
Never-Trumpers prefer Biden and democrats to Trump and Republicans, there is no other way to spin it.I didn't elect Biden.
You did, by being the most credulous rubes who ever lived.
Your “reality” is … suspectNever-Trumpers prefer Biden and democrats to Trump and Republicans, there is no other way to spin it.
That just shows how stupid Never-Trumpers are.
After seeing Biden's 4-years even a moron knows Trump is better, but Never-Trumpers are too stupid to see reality.
Hmm, no, I think people are bit concerned about Trump's grasp of reality.Nobody gives a shit about these sort of moronic TDS posts.
It always makes me chuckle when Trump cultists accuse others of having Trump live in their heads.Im just laughing that orange man has g5000 lib like never trumpers all torn into bits and its so hilarious that he dances in their heads 24 hours a day!! Lol.
If that is how you need it to be in order to deal with your TDS, then you do you.Hmm, no, I think people are bit concerned about Trump's grasp of reality.
Last poll I saw, it showed something like 1147% of people are concerned.
Tapout accepted.If that is how you need it to be in order to deal with your TDS, then you do you.
Whatever. I get tired of talking to mindless twats easily.Tapout accepted.
You guys have the mental fortitude of a dried turd.
Sure, that's the reason you're having a little baby tantrum.Whatever. I get tired of talking to mindless twats easily.
That one has chronic TDS. Trump lives in his head 24/7.Cool story bro.
