Trump Tweets

Some stories about the fact that in order to get outside and perhaps, even a little exercise, I played golf over the weekend. The Fake & Totally Corrupt News makes it sound like a mortal sin - I knew this would happen! What they don’t say is that it was my first golf in almost...

....3 months and, if I waited 3 years, they would do their usual “hit” pieces anyway. They are sick with hatred and dishonesty. They are truly deranged! They don’t mention Sleepy Joe’s poor work ethic, or all of the time Obama spent on the golf course, often flying to....

....Hawaii in a big, fully loaded 747, to play. What did that do to the so-called Carbon Footprint? He also played moments after the brutal killing by ISIS of a wonderful young man. Totally inappropriate - and it was me who shattered 100% of the ISIS Caliphate. I was left a MESS!

Trump Tweets

I love the Great State of North Carolina, so much so that I insisted on having the Republican National Convention in Charlotte at the end of August. Unfortunately, Democrat Governor, @RoyCooperNC is still in Shutdown mood & unable to guarantee that by August we will be allowed...

...made by many thousands of enthusiastic Republicans, and others, to head to beautiful North Carolina in August. They must be immediately given an answer by the Governor as to whether or not the space will be allowed to be fully occupied. If not, we will be reluctantly forced...

...to find, with all of the jobs and economic development it brings, another Republican National Convention site. This is not something I want to do. Thank you, and I LOVE the people of North Carolina!

To clarify, Trump is making another attempt at name-calling here (he's used this several times before.) It's actually MSNBC, a decidedly left-leaning network. But he calls it MSDNC because he's "cleverly" alluding that the DNC (Democratic National Committee) runs it.

I don't believe MSNBC is left leaning at all, except when compared to Fox News and OAN. They are more and more right leaning as conservatives flee from the Trump party and Trump networks to MSNBC.
 
Veteran's gave their lives for our freedom...Only to have Trump kill over 100K of us for his personal pursuits.

Plus there's an old saying, "better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than to speak out and remove all doubt".



I want to see Trump's tweets, the more the better. At a minimum it gives us an insight to what he really thinks, and something to laugh about. Hopefully it will also help turn people away from him and convince them that he needs to be removed.

Much of the junk I see here quoted as being tweeted by Trump isn’t written by trump. I don’t know or care what a “retweet” signifies in terms of belief but it’s a lot less insight than his own words would give us.
 
“I will never apologize for supporting the issues that candidate Trump advocated, but I am deeply sorry for thinking that this shallow and broken man would show even some remote fealty to the promises that got him elected.”

Ann Coulter, May, 2020.

Ann has really turned on Trump, in a big way. I was surprised at the vitriol of her tweets, although vitriol and Ann kind of go together. For some more examples, see this article: https://www.mediaite.com/news/you-c...-and-broken-man-trump-for-attacking-sessions/

Her message, now, seems to be fairly simple. As a person, Donald Trump is thoroughly awful, regardless of his tendency toward conservative policies. Furthermore, she has grown to recognize that his conservatism isn't even authentic or held out of an ideology, but is totally self serving.

I only hope that among people who voted for him in 2016, more of them grow to see that.

Most of the stuff written by Trump isn't written by Trump. He is not exactly the kind of deeply introspective man who fills his words with gleanable insight.

"We want authenticity in our corrupt, racist demagogues" is not the lesson I would hope they learn, but it would be a baby step in a better direction.

What it is, is an insight into what he's reading. The **** we see is just the **** he re-tweets, imagine what other **** he sees that he doesn't re-tweet.

We know he doesn't read anything of substance, like intelligence briefings, but it's scary to see what he is reading. Scary, but necessary.

At some point I'm waiting for the religious right to turn on trump. To say, "Hey waita minute. He isn't the chosen one. He's a false prophet sent by satan to deceive." :eek:

I'm not religious but that actually makes more sense to me. I have a sister-in-law who is religious, she belongs to an evangelical Christian church, but it's more of an inner-city variety with many Hispanic members. That's what she has come to believe, that trump is doing the devil's work. She's dismayed that so many Christians have "been taken in." That they really need to wake up and open their eyes. She said she's discussed this with some of her fellow congregants informally. Troubled by the thought, they spoke to their pastor. The pastor said he is conflicted. Not sure what to make of trump. He said he's praying for guidance.

They're not alone. Below is a quote from Pacific Standard website, though it's from last summer.
New research reports that, while 17.2 percent of Americans believe Trump's election "is a reflection of God's will," 27.7 percent believe he is "working for the devil." That same percentage replied affirmatively to the statement: "The devil is using Donald Trump for his purposes." [And] "32 percent of voters endorsed that 'the devil played a role in this election.'"Link to website report

There are some who think Trump is the Antichrist, and if you read the scripture, it is very easy to fit his description to Trump.
Very, very easy.
