This Is How Trump Goons Exploit His Mental Decline | The Daily Beast Podcast

LOL @ Xavi

@Devil's

Getting tired of winning yet?? Hahahahaha.

I had a chuckle when SNL pointed out that even in that AI generated meme of Bozo planting the flag, both Rubio and Vance are still wearing expressions saying "wtf is actually going on here?"

LMAO!

Trumpanzees squealing with joy at another Bozo "win" (for Bozo anyway, no-one else) would be well advised to wait and see what happens with Greenland. I suspect the current ejaculations are a bit premature.

It is pretty funny though @Rooinek, Trumps an obnoxious dick but he's the USA's dick and he's getting shit done for the US.

Meanwhile in the UK, we have this silly twat wishy washing his way through a parliamentary term.

". . . he's getting shit done for the US."

Oh? Like what? What has kidnapping Maduro done for the American people? What has slapping tariff's on any country opposing his takeover of Greenland (or Iceland as the stupid fool called it 4 times during his Davos speech) achieved? How have Bozo's ICEhole agents beating up and killing US citizens helped anyone? How has Bozo's belittling and ridiculing NATO and the UN benefitted the USA or the world? What has Bozo's incessant whining about the Nobel Prize done for US citizens? How does firing the Chairman of the Federal Reserve help the US economy? Maybe you think calling people childish little names or sharing private messages with the whole world is "getting shit done"?

Please don't quote any of the nonsense from the "big book of 365 wins" that Bozo was waving around the other day - anyone with an ounce of intelligence knows that is just garbage that he and his spin-doctors put together to try and avoid an embarrassing and humiliating defeat in the midterms. Rather focus on what the clown has actually delivered, not what he has claimed to deliver. They are always two different things with Bozo.

He's tanked not just the US economy but the global economy with his ignorant, delusional and self-serving attempts to get Greenland; he's withdrawn budget and/or support for anything pertaining to a cleaner environment; he's destroyed all confidence in NATO or the UN; he's abandoned Ukraine; his ICEholes are either killing or beating up protesters or anyone who speaks out against him and all he's achieved with his stupid tariffs is to alienate former allies and send them off to China to find a new and reliable trade partner.

But go on, enlighten us . . . explain this stuff that Bozo is doing for the US that none of the rest of us can see or understand.

I'm quite sure Keir Starmer is as incompetent as Boris Johnson was (but hopefully not quite as incompetent as Liz Truss) and I'm quite sure he has many faults and failings . . . but he seems like a decent enough human being, he's capable of taking advice from other people and he doesn't make bizarre and harebrained decisions that plunge the world into a crisis of his own making.

Recognise when you're well off, xavi. Starmer along with the British systems and institutions may not be perfect but they're a lot better than anything the Yanks have today . . . or you could have Ramaphosa if you're happy to trade.

@Rooinek

4.3% GDP growth in a year

Oil price is 20% lower than it was last year

Unemployment is below 4.5 %

The stock market has risen by 20% during his first year.

Inflation is down at 2.7%

Trade deficit is lowest in 17 years

94% drop in illegal migration in a year

Homicide down 25%, aggravated assault down 6%, firearm assault down13%, sexual assault down 4%, domestic violence down 19%, robbery down 36% and carjacking down 29%

I wish we had those numbers here in the UK and so would you wish the same for SA.

One of the things that he's been really good at is stopping huuuge corporations from hoovering up homes making it easier for first time buyers to get on the property ladder.

NATO and the UN needed no help from Trump in embarrassing themselves, they've been an embarrassment since the fall of the USSR and as for Chiynaaa, any leader that wants to invest in that economic bubble is not worth the paper their vote was counted on.

Why should the Trump administration give 2 fucks about economies other than that of the US.

It's so retarded that here's America going in this upward direction and instead of the rest of the world following in their wake/slipstream, the west is wringing their hands over orange man bad and Trump is a bully, fine, he is, but he's only got 3 more yrs and he's already in his 80s, FML he'll be dead before the golden dome is even completed. Europe is starting to wake up to the fact that the US want allies that are actually beneficial to the US and not a drain on them. Being an ally now means bringing something to the table. Europe is 12% of the worlds population, 25% of the worlds GDP and 60% of the worlds welfare spending. Those numbers are economic suicide. Europe is heading in another direction to the US.

One thing I think we can both agree on is that...

ALL POLITICIANS ARE CUNTS!

All of that sounds like it comes from Bozo's "Big Book of wonderful achievements" . . . you know, the book he waved at everyone, telling them that they'd never seen anything like it before and how much everyone was winning because of him.

Some of those stats may have some truth to them. I'm pretty sure they're all exaggerated but I can well believe that there's been a big reduction in illegal migration and probably less crime, but in general it's just the bullshit that Bozo's spin-doctors are putting out knowing that their support base will lap it up and treat as fact.

If there's less crime then that's probably due to the ICE campaign in some part. People are shit-scared to do anything wrong, knowing they might get beaten or even killed if they do . . . but it's not sustainable . . . and who wants to live in a police state?

The rest is either very exaggerated (like Bozo's recent claim that not a single illegal migrant has entered the US in the last 8 months) or else complete and utter bullshit.

I wouldn't say every single politician is a cunt. I've had some respect for certain politicians in my lifetime, recent examples being Madiba, Barack Obama, Jacinda Adern and now Mark Carney, but yes, in general they are self-serving opportunists who don't really give a shit about the people they supposedly represent.

@Rooinek

Not from his 365 days of Trump epic : ) , although I'm sure some of them might be in there.

"in general they are self-serving opportunists who don't really give a shit about the people they supposedly represent."

I have looked into those stats Xavi, and you are pretty much spot on.....

I wish our president was a bit more of a bully and put these fucking useless ANC cadres in jail and sort this country out and actually start serving the people and not his fellow thieves.

Trump's tax cuts alone have benefitted the average American household by $1 000 - $5 000 per annum

Crime has been reduced nationally by 20%, with homicides alone down 17%..... which is the largest drop ever on record.

This has a knock on effect of reduced medical and insurance costs and also safer communities.

Energy costs have also benefitted the average American household by $500 - $1 000 per annum

Increased wages have benefitted the average American household by $1 100 per annum as well

Spending power for groceries, housing and savings were boosted up by 10.4%

Record oil production resulted in a 4 year low oil price of $3 nationally for a gallon, which led to a 3% - 8% reduction in groceries due to lower farming and transport costs......

Yes, of course some things went up, but as a whole, the benefits for the average citizen was far greater, like eggs alone being down $1.80 per dozen

There are quite a lot of things that Trump has done as a president that has directly benefitted his citizens, and drug pricing is another big win for him as well, by forcing these large corporations to reduce their margins on certain drugs.... in some cases bringing the price down from $1 000 to $300

Trump can be an absolute prick..... and his ego is on another level.....and some days I absolutely despise the man because he is often insensitive, egotistical and downright arrogant and brash, because I often think that he could have done or said something in such a different way or manner that does not make him look immature and childish.

Then he does things that I actually admire him for, and I genuinely do......because if one had to just look at just how he and his entire family has personally been targeted and treated by the mainstream media and fellow opposition politicians over all these years ... no wonder he is like he is, and I get that 100%

How many people do you know that could withstand that constant scrutiny from everyone and their dog....... always out to crucify you or your wife and kids and at any given moment in time, and then still be able to smile and make fun of everyday issues.

America made him like he is........

I have no doubt whatsoever in my mind that I would 200% vote for Trump to have just one presidential term in SA, because I know how much he would achieve in that small amount of time....and those that say different are just lying to themselves.

Well let’s see. GDP growth an official stat measured the same way. Oil price ….hard to fudge that, it is what it is. Unemployment an official stat but it hasn’t moved that much. The Stock market is up exactly 20% from an S&P of 5728 the day before the election to 6875 yesterday…inflation is down to 2.7% but perhaps not as much as hoped. Immigration again is an official number.

Gosh it seems all this winning is upsetting you Vaccine, but unfortunately much as you Woke types want it, you can’t have your own truth

@DA

What make me laugh is the same people that when they were in her Majesty's opposition were slagging him off and saying some really awful things about him and his family are now wondering why they have little to no access to the goings on of the Trump administration and why the UK is now irrelevant in the plans of the US.

The whole drugs/pharma situation in the States is an absolute shambles and it'd be great if Trump manages to get that under control although I'm not sure if increasing the costs in other countries is the solution I'd like. However his mandate is to make the drugs cheaper for the American people and not everyone else.

The problem is not so much that the number could have been fudged, for liberals, it is the increasing gap between the metrics and people's perception of their own situation.

For example, it is very funny. With all the means available, it is easy to track one's personal inflation which must supersede any average measure of inflation. Depending of social status, one may be under the average inflation or above. Liberals have no autonomy, they are drown in their group, a group that less and less support them (hence the resentment of white people who own a lot of welfare to the white group)

Already stated, growth was a good number. Liberal economists are in a difficult as growth in the US rely on a fraction of the US population (around 25 per cent) And that 25 per cent has been thriving under Trump (as they had under Biden) and are increasingly weighing more and more in any growth number.

Trump, just as Biden or so many others before, does not serve billionaires, billionaires serve the same master in fact, that 25 per cent of population that keeps thriving and weighs a lot in many metrics which are now reflecting their welfare.

I'm not sure if increasing the costs in other countries is the solution I'd like. However his mandate is to make the drugs cheaper for the American people and not everyone else.

So Trump could have be given the mandate to increase drugs price in other countries... Liberals are getting and getting better every single day.

You betcha...if inflated prices in the USA are subsidizing lower prices in other places of the world, it's about time the scale is balanced.

"You betcha...if inflated prices in the USA are subsidizing lower prices in other places of the world, it's about time the scale is balanced."

Yep although it would be great if "Big Pharma " would wind their necks in when it come to pricing.

There are no evidences that the price of drugs are inflated in the US.

Many things are significantly more expensive in the US than in many other countries, including in Europe.

Food is an excellent point of comparison. Be it fast food (that are global US corporations) or restaurants.

A meal may cost 100, 125 to 150 per cent more in the US (and that is discounting tipping that grows the bill by 15 per cent)

In fact, once placed in context, it may be that the US drugs prices are relatively lower than in Europe.

When people move to the US, a deep investigation must be done. People with PhDs paid between 3500 to 4000 euros can be offered to earn 10 000 USD. Which they think is a good offer. Except when they move to the US, they discover that their standards of life have declined.

No, Trump works for big pharma. He is caught between a rock and a hard place so he gets others to fund his lack of political vision. Liberals are liberal with others' money.

Yep although it would be great if "Big Pharma " would wind their necks in when it come to pricing.

Spot on

“I wish he would take more interest in the US,” said Shoemaker, a Trump voter. “He’s made a lot of peace. He is a peacemaker. He says they got what they wanted in Greenland now.”

Wincing as she admitted she voted for Trump in 2024, Mallowe offered a more stinging verdict. “The people in Greenland don’t want to be part of the US. Leave them alone,” she said.

“His personality… it’s like he’s always mad. Always yelling. Always ready to fight with somebody. He talks about himself only.”

“Of all our passions and appetites, the love of power is of the most imperious and unsociable nature, since the pride of one man requires the submission of the multitude,”

Nixon spiraled into self-destructive mania at the end of his term. President Trump has reached those depths with three years left on the clock. For weeks, the president has been threatening the military takeover of Greenland, an autonomous territory of the Kingdom of Denmark. His reasons amount to little more than greed and vanity; he wants to be known to posterity for the territorial expansion of the United States.

“Dear Jonas,” Trump wrote, “Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace, although it will always be predominant, but can now think about what is good and proper for the United States of America.”

The uncomfortable truth is that the president of the United States is a man with the mind of a spoiled child. His debilitating solipsism is a threat to the stability of the entire world. A functional Congress would impeach and remove him.

We have three years left with a mad king. It does not feel sustainable.

Matt Walsh, the popular right-wing podcaster, wrote, “This lesbian agitator gave her life to protect 68 IQ Somali scammers who couldn’t give less of a shit about her. The most disgraceful and humiliating end a person could possibly meet.”

That’s how much parts of MAGA devalue human life. That’s how much they despise their political opponents.

We should certainly respect law enforcement officers, but we are not their subjects. We are not Trump’s subjects, either. But that’s not the president’s mind-set, and that’s not what parts of MAGA believe.

To the worst parts of MAGA — including people who exert immense power over American life — your worth is defined by your obedience. And those who don’t obey? Well, they deserve to die, and no one should mourn their death.
