The President of the United States everyone… Deserves to be checked into the loony bin.
Hmm, projecting again?
Now that would be an interesting plot twist in the American Presidential Shitshow…
Republicans are some of the dumbest fucking people on the planet
… and yet, they keep winning election after election after election.
not exactly
Do people really believe that he shares these things because he honestly believes Biden is a clone? These nonsense rage bait articles are a big part of the problem.
It’s cult building.
Yeah, you’ve got to feed the Qultists from time to time to let them know you care about them. If you don’t, they’ll wander off into further, less useful conspiracy thinking.
A fraction of his followers might. It’s a signal, but plausibly ambiguous. And then influencers can point fingers at each other as ‘hysterical’ to rake in big bucks.
And yeah, tabloid sites like thedailybeast jump on the engagement train. They can’t help themselves. If they don’t, well, they’ll move closer to shutting down like ‘boring’ longwinded classical journalism that gets no engagement anymore.
Our information environment is so screwed. It baffles me that pundits, researchers, political leaders and such ponder what’s going wrong when they walk to work and see every single human being doomscrolling this trash away, all while the companies hosting it become the richest on Earth.

One of those is not like the others. As long as lobbying and kickbacks are legal or no worse than a slap on the wrist, politicians are more than happy to be paid to not wonder or care why. Heck, some of them probably welcome it—the algorithms helped them get elected.

Original post not made by Trump but shared by him. Reading it, it feels more like a joke/shitpost.
Everything he (re)tweets sounds like a shitpost. Everything he says can be read as an idiotic joke, too stupid to be real. Except some times suddenly he turns around and it’s deadly serious.
You’d think they’d have made a second clone once this one started going bad
Why is ‘notorious firehose of bullshit spews even more more bullshit’ still a headline anymore? Oh wait it’s the daily beast, firehose of bullshit is kinda their whole shtick. Carry on.
Because that firehose is now president. No matter what the president says, it’s relevant, BECAUSE he’s president. The founding fathers just never anticipated THIS EXACT scenario.
I’m not saying it’s not relevant, I’m saying it’s not worth generating 50 headlines every time the guy who literally only says crazy shit says something that’s a little crazy. Iono, put that shit into a daily/weekly digest or something.
I hate that I’m not sure if this fits the community.
I’ve heard similar about Trump. They keep the real one somewhere secret and put the shitty one out in public, because he couldn’t possibly be this bad, right? He’s still the great leader, just behind the scenes right? Guys? GUYS?
tumbleweeds
If we feed him enough insane conspiracy gibberish will they remove him from office.
I know they won’t, but we should still try and convince him that lizard mole people from Neptune are turning the Keebler Elves into gay wombats, or something.
😂 This is exactly the sort of madness I came here for.
Did they mix his DNA with a cold blooded creature to pull it off? Cuz that might help explain how he could support the genocide
