Summary
Seventy days into his second term, Donald Trump faces growing internal turmoil and public backlash. Allies report he’s making late-night angry calls, upset over negative press and policy setbacks.
The “Signalgate” scandal and GOP resistance to new tariffs have shaken his administration. Trump blames National Security Adviser Mike Waltz for a messaging blunder and resents criticism of his deportation efforts.
His attempts to end wars in Gaza and Ukraine have faltered.
Republicans fear economic fallout from his trade policies, raising concerns about recession and inflation.
He is surprised that he’s getting bad press. That’s how stupid Trump is. Not only does he think the things he’s doing are good ideas, he legitimately thinks people will actually praise him for doing it.
Once he sees not everyone will he’ll start censoring those who don’t. He’s fixated on getting things done his way regardless of how it affects anyone else.
And to anyone who has eyes to see with, the press is largely sanewashing Trump and toadying to his imbeclic destructiveness.
Wouldn’t be wild to say that there’s some dementia and cognitive decline going on with Trump. I’m not saying this as a joke or insult, the guy is seriously behaving randomly and people around his are too scared to disagree.
It wouldn’t be wild, it’d be accurate. The man has dementia. I’m on mobile and not inclined to tap out all of the indicators, but remember when he abruptly stopped speaking at a campaign rally, and just kind of swayed to his music playlist for 39 minutes, or when he described in detail the literal, giant faucet in British Columbia that he seemed to think that Canada uses to control water to the West Coast? (Or the literal dome over Israel?) Both losing track of time and losing the ability to process metaphorical speech are symptoms of dementia. Why else would his doctors have administered that cognitive test that he bragged that he aced?
Like when no one wants to take Grandpa’s car keys.
It’s definitely possible. We may just be seeing his true self more though
That’s how Fascism works.
I mean… Why doesnt he just stop doing things that give him bad press.
If he were smart enough to do that, he probably wouldn’t have bankrupted a casino twenty years ago.
Four casinos, depending on how you count his six bankruptcies.
I can think of one thing he could do that would get him lots of good press, but it’s typically a TOS violation.
It’s probably a TOS against something he signed after taking elon’s money but firing Elon would be a really good first start
Rhymes with mooicide?
Narcissistic psychopaths gonna narcissistic psychopath.
Trump doesn’t have friends; he has lackeys and people who want to gain something by getting in his favor. Others follow and agree with him out of fear of retaliation.
Carry on with the negative press about the fucking neo-Nazi filled GOP. Fuck them.
How does this old ass dude have so much goddamn energy? I am in my PRIME and I need naps.
It’s not like he really does anything except golfs, eats McDonald’s, possibly gropes or sexually assaults young girls (some habits are hard to break - grab them by the pussy right?). He doesn’t read, doesn’t think - he basically signs whatever heritage foundation and his rich friends put in front of him to sign.
For all the time he spends golfing, it’s amazing how bad he is at it.
Stimulants. Where do you think Jr. gets it from?
How do I get some and what are they called? 🤣
speed, some guy called “Squigz” who you can find under the bridge after 10pm every night.
Squigz is in charge of US drug policy now.
I thought that was Leon’s dealer?
Most likely ADHD meds. They will keep you up and running for awhile. He will eventually fall to time though, like we all do.
“Nothing fucks you harder than time.” -Davos Seaworth
30mg Lisdexamfetamine (Elvanse/Vyvanse) every morning.
It’s like a cheat code for life.
Drugs. Adderall, mostly.
Hate.
And the media is playing softball with him. This is the media not calling him out on all his bullshit.
Exactly. If we actually had a real oppositional “liberal media”, they’d be tearing this asshat a new one for his dumbfuckery.
The owners of the media are not on our side.
But Trump is starting to hurt their treasure hordes.
I thought he would’ve been impeached by now. I am a bit surprised he hasn’t been.
By the Republicans? Pull the other one, it’s got bells on.
By anyone. It’s not like democrats were particularly interested.
Well he has been twice so they tried I guess.
It will end up like brexit. Most people who voted for him will stay in the sect no matter what. When enough people finally switch to hand power back to the democrats it will be too late to simply reverse most of what Trump did and slow rebuilding will start. If Democrats elect competent leaders they will actually fix things. If not they will just continue working with what Trump left for them (like with Starmer)
and slow rebuilding will start.
And then Democratic voters will get complacent, or get all pissy about how their pet project for change isn’t getting enough attention fast enough, and not vote the next time leading to a Republican getting back in office BECAUSE SURELY THAT WILL HELP THEIR FUCKING PRECIOUS INTERESTS. It worked out so~ well this past Fall, didn’t it? Nothing at all~ to be concerned about, worried about, uncertain about, or terrified about now.
If Democrats elect competent leaders
Pelosi and Schumer, and all their fanbois (people listening to them even when they aren’t in office), would need to go.

Brexit is like herpes. It just keeps on giving.
The fact that McHitler hasn’t stroked out by now is all the proof I really need to say that there is no god directing all this shit.
Around 13,000 children under the age of 5 die every day. I’d love to see god explain that lol
Lucifer: I’m not in the business of murdering innocent children. That’s God’s jurisdiction.

“We didn’t start the fire. It’s always been burning since the world’s been turning…”
God: “No, yeah, that was me. I started it. Flicked over the first domino. Still watching the picture unfold. Quite the sight, wish you could see it.”
My dad is 60 and has had a stroke in Janurary. He’s far from perfect, but he’s been a good role model for me, made me a better person, and helped me when I realized my mom was more insane each passing day.
This fucker is the oldest president, looks worse than his age, is angry 24/7, and hasn’t had one.
Life is a cruel joke.
Been thinking about that myself, with my shitty religious upbringing. This is what god wants. And, if you’re Jewish and you’ve at least heard the phrase “god’s chosen people,” I just wonder how you square that with one of the worst people to live having killed 6 million of them. God was really looking out for the chosen people that day, let me tell ya…
My ex, who is Jewish, told me “chosen” is more like “singled out.”
God realized they fucked up with all us uppity hyper-hierarchical monkeys and is going for a hard reset, or never existed. Change my mind.
If god, in the christian, all-knowing and all-powerful sense even exists, she must fucking hate us, because she allowed Drumf to happen. I could never venerate a god who is that callous and spiteful.
He - and if there is a God, I am convinced he is a he, because no woman could or would ever fuck things up this badly.
St. George Carlin
LOL. What a treasure !
If there is a god, he’s incompetent at best, and more likely, an asshole who is doing this shit on purpose.
Unless Trump is the antichrist, then God intended for it to happen.
hes a low-level demon escaped from hell, anti-christ would have been able to warp reality one of the key feature of its powers
He’s able to do that for 1/3 of the US population.
Maybe who you think god is is all wrong? Maybe it’s the other guy or girl or it who’s really in charge.
The only justice in this world is the justice we make.
Maybe God isnt all powerful and is forced to watch all she made kill itself over and over in ever more savage ways.
God realized how badly She fucked up and died of Chrstian pity.
He has two options: 1) Stop doing stupid shit, or 2) Destroy the media, replace it with propaganda outlets.
Guess which one he’ll do.
You forgot #3, do something else crazy to try and distract from this failure. But #2 is definitely in the cards as well.
#2 is happening, but it’s too hard for Trump - fortunately for him there are people with their own agendas to do it for him. #3 is his only move because he can’t conceive of a better strategy.
People with their own agendas = opportunists who can see that Trump is 78 years old
Henry Kissinger lived to 100 …

They’ll have him killed if his lifestyle doesn’t do it for them. He’s only alive as long as he’s useful to them.
as putin sees fit.
What’s more interesting is what happens to Trump and his goons if Putin predeceases him. What will the puppet do when the strings are cut?
They are hoping to squeeze 2 years out of Trump, so they can give Vance two terms instead of one.
The orange cunt would have an aneurysm if only the “Press” actually treated him fairly. Instead they sane wash his bullshit, and tiptoe around him without ever using the words “Liar”, “convicted felon” or “rapist”… The press have never treated anyone so favorably, and still he whines and cries like a stuck little pig. He gets $1 billion free publicity every single day. Fuck him with a cactus. No lube ! Edit: And fuck the press! They are responsible for Drumpf!
MSM heavily benefited from trump being center of attention, and most of them are owned by conservatives anyways. just like fb, youtube, reddit right wing gaffes drives traffic.
Time to make their actions criminal imo, although that is just a pipedream currently. They are all traitors.
If we ever get out of this mess and have our own version of the Nuremberg trials I hope to see many media execs and on-air personalities (obviously especially but not limited to those of Fox News) hanged for their part in all of this.
Amen, bro !
Leave the poor cactus out of this. This is why man invented angle grinders.
What about providing him gympie-gympie toilet paper?
D. moroides is notorious for its extremely painful sting which may leave victims suffering for weeks or even months. It is reputed to be the most venomous plant in Australia, if not the world.
…
The trichomes stay in the skin for up to a year, and release the toxin cocktail into the body during triggering events such as touching the affected area, contact with water, or temperature changes.
3 words: Gympie-Gympie enema
a cholla cactus.
Mea culpa! I bow to the almighty angle grinders!
Oh, to be a ketchup stain on the wall…
It’s probably like this downfall scene, except with dementia and pants-shitting.
100%
And Hitler was known for sharing the contents of his bowels.
Literally Shitler
I’m supposing this dumbfuck really thought he was going to get praise for this?
The problem is that he’s been safely ensconced in a bubble his entire fucking life. He’s Patient Zero when it comes to rich white failsons failing upwards, FFS.
He thought he could make more fake deals and get good press, but the nihilist tech bro backed death cult had other ideas.
yeah some progressive senator/rep was saying this was actually 10d chess on trump’s part to extract concessions from industries in exchange for tariff relief, and, maybe, but also, you know, there is the other explanation
this was actually 10d chess on trump’s part to extract concessions
It’s called a shakedown. Instead of actually talking to someone, start by threatening them then extract concessions. Best deal maker ever
If, by “concessions,” they meant bribes, that might be true.
I’m not American but, from what I’ve seen, Republicans seem to flip sides more than a quarter in a hobos pocket during an earthquake.
Having Republicans turn on eachother is about as shocking as the fact that it will be cold in winter.
After reading the article I found it quite amusing the fact he is disappointed his allies have not supported him
That’s how the rest of the world feels
It’s surprising how few supporters you get when they aren’t allowed to criticise you in any way
Especially since in his case “support” means unconditional loyalty and subservience.
