Trump's Second Term

I Am The Scum said:
The explanation I saw that made a lot of sense:

Trump knows that this is the kind of thing that people care about, but deep down, he absolutely does not care about anyone who died or suffered on 9/11. So in order to talk about it in a way that he cares about, he has to insert himself into the narrative.

Isn't there a movie or play about someone who always inserts himself into events?

And of course The Lincoln Project has just put up the audio where Trump's response was, "now I have the tallest building in New York"

This is probably not true, but it's still funny:

'South Park' changes name to 'South America'

BREAKING: "South Park" is no more. Long live "South America."

Ahead of the premiere of the show's 29th Season, creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone have announced they are changing the name of the series.

"Inspired by the bravery and patriotism of Apple and Google, we are changing the name of ‘South Park' to ‘South America,'" the pair shared in a statement. "We especially want to thank our parent company Paramount - a Skydance Capitulation."

On Sept 13 Donald gave two interviews, claiming first he sent over 100 men, then inflating it to hundreds of workers at Ground Zero.
Years later, he added the claim that he worked the pile. FDNY logs prove the Trump crews never existed.
By now he's told the story so many times and his brain has degraded so far he probably believes it now.
 
DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin:

“To be honest with you, 9/11 isn’t a day that I just love to celebrate.

Because some people do celebrate success that America has. For me, it kinda puts a bad taste in my mouth.”

It's true, I just watched a news segment on it. I suspect it won't stay that way forever.

tl;dr Canada is getting under his skin. Good.


Donald Trump
@realDonaldTrump

Everyone knows that Canada doesn’t let our Great Dairy Farmers sell into the Canadian Market, and that the only reason Canada makes Autos is because of previous disastrous Trade Agreements while other Presidents were in Office. Canada has been ripping us off for years, but what many do not realize is that the Canadian Government, including Canadian Provinces, have banned American Small Businesses and Companies from selling into their Government Procurement Markets. This is the case even though Canada gets broad access into the massive American Government Procurement Market, including those of our States. That is not reciprocity, it is a Canadian Trade Scam. From now on, NO RECIPROCITY – NO ACCESS! I am hereby directing the GSA, working with the USTR, to take all necessary steps to REMOVE Canadian-origin products from GSA’s Multiple Award Schedules unless Canada restores full and fair reciprocity for American Farmers and Companies. Those schedules account for more than 50 BILLION DOLLARS a year. This should have been cut off years ago, by other Administrations, like it was by mine, only to reinstituted by Sleepy Joe Biden. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP

Hmm. This appears to be the musing of an honest-to-goodness imbecile. Has anyone tried to tell him that commemorating 9/11 is not intended as a celebration; that it's a different kind of thing from a celebration?

He's complete psychopath, these situations show it clearly. He has no concept of sympathy or compassion. The interview where he brags about having the tallest building again is another great example.
That actually applies to most politicians .. but since they usually are working as politicians their whole life, they usually learn to fake it. They understand what they should be saying in situations like these. Not Trump, he's from the business side. Sympathy is not used in business.

I was talking about Markwayne Mullin but I can't disagree with you about Trump.

People don't "celebrate the success" of 9-11, you dip-◊◊◊◊ Mullin. They REMEMBER it. It was a tragedy, not a Superbowl.

All he has to do is think of an event and in his mind it's true and already happened. Cemented there.

I presume you're referring to Forrest Gump?:)

Or Zelig. But I think both of those guys just happened to be in those situations rather than forcing themselves into them.

Trump just now, on a deceased 9/11 rescuer:
"The Man in the Red Bandana. Have you heard of him? He's become more famous than me. I don't like it. Very unhappy. But he's become much more famous than me."

This is a microcosm of how he immediately interprets each new piece of information he receives, no matter how trivial.
