Dude fuck all of these people.
This guy going to start a nuclear war to keep people from talking about Epstein??
It would be pretty distracting.
Well, a lot of pedophile billionaires WILL die in that one, so I'm willing to be convinced
I really should get around to watching Wag The Dog.
Before it's too late.
How does a submarine release the Epstein files?
Let's all dance to "The Epstein Dodge"!
Trump's Truth is a public archive of Donald Trump's communications on TRUTH Social. We believe this is an essential part of the historical record, and that it must be preserved for its educational, journalistic and research value.
Ha! Totally agree, yet still somehow tongue in cheek.
Social media is not the place to release this type of inflammatory language. This idiot is going to put us in a major conflict. Anything to distract from Epstein. Billionaire narcissists need to be as far away from the levers of power as possible.
Honestly this is just standard posturing, no threat. Not revealing exact positions either. Putin probably does this sort of shit daily (not on social media though).
Anything to distract from more pressing issues as you said.
And he clearly did not write this one himself.
Taunting North Korea's leader in 2017 by calling him "Rocket boy"*, that was a different matter: for a moment we all held our breath. Ultimately nothing happened, he even stumbled into probably his one and only diplomatic win, but still: that was inflammatory.
* (and any number of similar tweets since then; that was just the first one while in office)
I propose a new amendment. A person must be homeless for a presidential term before they can be allowed to serve in a presidential capacity.
Then the least of us can lead with empathy, at least that is the hope.
Then maybe we can get fucking health care, including mental health.
Im no miltary strategist. But shouldnt submarine operations be.... like secret?
IMHO what Trump writes about is just business as usual. Standard posturing (both literally and figuratively) that is happening anyhow all the time on all sides. Anyhow, all it says is "appropriate positions", so I counter: shouldn't military submarines always be in "appropriate positions"?
Normally you wouldn't ~~tweet~~ ~~truth~~ lie about something like that at all. My guess is one of his PR people thought a little fearmongering might distract from other issues...
I remember back when Trump got caught with all those classified docs there was a story about him showing off some about submarines to a rich Australian dude. There was a comment about how everyone in the navy knows that you do not talk about subs. Everything about them is top secret, and if it were anyone else there would be very severe consequences.
Yeah. Also, happy cake day!
Boomers (ballistic missile subs) whole raison d'etre is to be the most powerful weapon platform of all time, be anywhere, be undetectable. MAD is predicated on not knowing from where the punch might come. Trump just said, "Sup bitch! We put boomers in your back yard and we're not afraid to use them!"
Of all the shit Trump has done, this makes my Gen X gut drop. He's playing with world-ending apocalypse. The height of the Cold War didn't see nation states fuck around like this. Never in my life, or history as I know it, has an American President or Soviet/Russian leader stated anything so provocative.
Hadn't been too worried about Russia's nuclear arsenal, but it exists and Ruskies are paranoid bastards. This isn't brinksmanship, nor Nixon's madman theory, this is a toddler poking a rabid dog with a stick. And that dog is already starving, ravening and scared shitless.
"Yeah, we have subs in the Pacific and Eastern Med. I know it. You know it. But now I'm telling you, telling the world." That's a fucking threat. In diplomatic terms this states, "Blink and I'll fucking end you."

Considering this, I would normally treat anything said about secret weapons a bluff. But given who's talking, I've no way to tell if it's stupidity instead

Words are very important, and can often lead to unintended consequences, I hope this will not be one of those instances.
Is he... Is he talking about himself?
Words are important.. covfefe.
Why does he end all his statements with that, "thanks for your attention to this matter" so fucking dumb.
English isn’t my native language, but to me it sounds like there should be an “on” in place of “to” there? Is it correct grammar? And if it is, does it still sound equally “wrong” to someone natively speaking English or is this some weird quirk of the second language experience?
there should be an “on” in place of “to” there?
No.
Is it correct grammar?
Yes.
is this some weird quirk of the second language experience
Probably connected to how your native language would construct a similar sentence.
Thanks! That’s surprising. We’d actually use the equivalent of “to” here too. Weird how our foreign language intuition works. I go by how sentences “taste” when I read them and it’s usually correct, this time somehow it has a weird encumbered taste with the “to”, yet it is correct.
If only the day-to-day autopilot part of the mind would work from what we’ve learnt literally as opposed to some weird personal associative “feeling”. Or maybe that’s just me..
Anyway, thanks!
I think either "to" or "on" would be acceptable in that context. English likes to use "to" with attention, like in the phrases "pay attention to" or "draw attention to", often emphasizing the change in focus. But you can also keep your attention "on" something.
As a native English speaker from the US east coast, I would probably have chosen "on". Just sounds better to me to use "on" instead of "to" when there is no associated verb like "pay" or "draw". Not sure why.
WW3 back on the menu fam!
Is it distracting from Epstein and his pedo rape island?. Then it's on the menu
Yes exactly! Anything Donny does or says is just a distraction from the list being released.
The fuck? Epstein, bitch!!
This is what's going, they're having a dick fight.
Medvedev:
“Trump’s playing the ultimatum game with Russia: 50 days or 10 … He should remember 2 things: 1. Russia isn’t Israel or even Iran. 2. Each new ultimatum is a threat and a step towards war,” Medvedev blasted on social media earlier this week. “Not between Russia and Ukraine, but with his own country. Don’t go down the Sleepy Joe road!”
Trump:
“Russia and the USA do almost no business together. Let’s keep it that way, and tell Medvedev, the failed former President of Russia, who thinks he’s still President, to watch his words. He’s entering very dangerous territory!” Trump wrote in the early hours of Thursday morning.
Medvedev:
“It’s not for you or Trump to dictate when to ‘get at the peace table’. Negotiations will end when all the objectives of our military operation have been achieved. Work on America first, gramps!” Medvedev fumed.
etc. Source
lol the insults.
So children. They're both children.
turtles all the way down...
I'm an idiot and it scares me the number of times i've been the "smartest person in the room"...
Oohh, we're about to start WWIII again? Using Twitter? Just to distract the public from the fact that the US president fucked little children?
Man these are such times to be alive! I'd be laughing hysterically if that wouldn't scare the shit out of everyone around me.
No, of course not, it's not Twitter, it's Truth /s
Not enough capital letters.
And way too coherent, grammatically correct, generally making sense.
It's always so obvious what he wrote himself and what some PR person wrote for him.
True. It doesn’t seem to be real if it doesn’t have capital letters in it.
And the lack of insults.
Why on Earth would you broadcast where you're putting your nuclear subs? The entire point is for enemies not to know where they are. I mean I assume he's lying, but fuck.
I see nothing in that post that isn't business as usual - except the fact that Medvedev and Trump, two man babies, apparently got into a fight.
Submarines are always stationed in "appropriate positions". This is just deflecting from other issues, you know...
That said I'm not underestimating the danger the Trump admin poses for the world, generally.
