In the moments before trump posted that, HUGE purchases were made into many index funds and to energy futures. Billions and billions of dollars executed almost simultaneously minutes before he announced that bullshit. That's why the stock market futures went thru the roof. Billionaire oligarchs being billionaire oligarchs and making money while the world burns.
So, the president is publicly reporting the contents of fully imaginary conversations relevant to critical international diplomacy. Is he incapacitated enough *now*?
He's tweeting bullshit to try to bump up the stock market. Futures went up over the weekend after he posted this, and we can probably watch all those gains collapse after Iran's response
Normally we call people who give performances for money actors. That would make Trump a bad actor. Jokes aside, normal left the building. If we survive to the end of his term, the corpse of a country that will be left will be less than a shadow of itself.
They probably went up simply because he backed down from shear insanity for whatever reason. He seems perilously close to his own Waterloo. So he will pivot to Cuba, etc., and bully the helpless there and in the US
I don't understand how the stock market doesn't see through his bullshit yet. Its been ten years of his garbage! Once more, the stock market has proven to be run by neurotic idiots, and I motion for it to be mostly abolished.
The people running the market are the ones making money from all of this. Beyond just taking a cut of all market trades in general, also by letting an industry tank because they're shorting stocks in that industry.
I think it’s moved on to full-blown confabulation and dementia. Either way, he isn’t fit for office and should be in prison for: treason, fraud, murder, rape, pedophilia, lying, more fraud, theft, more treason, more murder…it’s truly unbelievable at this point.
It's sad how obvious a twist this is. I don't think anyone expected him to have actually talked to anyone. It's basically expected at this point that whenever he says
"I talked to them and they said everything I needed them to say" is immediately followed by a narrator saying "he in fact talked to nobody"
As Iranians have now said plainly and multiple times: why would anyone negotiate with the US regime? They don't honor any contracts, and more than once now the US has killed the negotiators during the negotiations. That isn't "negotiating in bad faith", it's much much worse.
Exactly. The sad thing though is that their mistakes have massive consequences around the world and all normal people of other western countries now suffer because of some morons decisions
It is in New Zealand! Also I have no idea why anyone is trying to rationalize the crap he says about negotiating with Iran - I just heard one broadcast saying that maybe there were back channels to tackle the negotiations. We have seen often enough that he regularly makes up lies from whole cloth, no shame, no kernel of truth.
There are no "back channels." He talks a big game, makes empty threats, and when those who are threatened don't back down, then he chickens out, says there were "good talks," and the problem was solved. Every time.
What do you get when a LOSER of a president person who FAILS to admit they where WRONG to all the BAD things they have done? You get Donald fucking dumbass Trump.
Who would lie about shit like this? Oh, right, they have a felonious, pedophile, Russian asset running their country 8nto the ground, while they watch and do nothing.
Trump’s false or misleading claims total 30,573 over 4 years (the first 4 years). if this were a Dem the corporate media would be 24/7 demonizing and trump would never won over Harris 100%. for some reason so many americans r weak minded and easily influenced, cannot see fact out of fiction. https://www.congress.gov/118/meeting/house/116231/documents/HHRG-118-JU13-20230718-SD002.pdf
the only campaign promise i heard harris speak was (tax credit for small businesses). the DNC doesn't deserve our support. 90% of the Dem/GOP in my rural county don't know what a tax credit is and surely would never use one. many don't file because below poverty line. my neighbors understood Bernie and many maga supported him. understanding the exact policies that would help them! https://truthout.org/articles/dnc-autopsy-finds-kamala-harriss-silence-on-gaza-genocide-cost-her-votes/

There's no one to talk to anyway, he blew up all the negotiable leadership and now all thats left are military and religious fundamentalists

In Europe, we say exactly the same about Russia. Looks like the Soviets won the Cold War after all - by transforming the US into Russia.

The Trump-Harris debate: Harris told ONE untruth/lie, Trump told 30. AMERICANS DON'T GIVE A FLYING FUCK. 70% still wanted this (or didn't stop it) and the world has to suffer for it.
