Hey, you need an archive link of this tweet (archive.is or xcancel are pretty good). I see that someone linked the axios article, but it's paywalled and I don't have the bandwidth to look for the link, etc. Anyone can help do this, everyone has an hour.

Edit: Someone else posted a direct link, so it's verified to be true. Archive.is isn't archiving it for some reason. https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/116351998782539414

Sorry, had to go reread SCP-1981 again for some inexplicable reason. What were we talking about again?

i like how the ever looming threat of epstein files, trump has made him more and more desperate and erratic, especially since BLANCHE is the new AG. even from the grave epstein is haunting/cursing trump.

Cheung saw the Lego videos Iran keeps making and blew his lid.

I am wondering if this is an AI generated text and AI trained on his posts finally cracked his intelligence level.

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 1 points 24 minutes ago

The good news is that now the AI only needs a kilobyte of RAM and can be safely stored on a single floppy disk.

[–] sickofit@lemmy.today 12 points 7 hours ago (4 children)

This doesn’t sound like the way he writes/talks at all. It’s too coherent.

[–] CaptainSpaceman@lemmy.world 6 points 5 hours ago

This 100% was written by Hegseth

[–] orbitz@lemmy.ca 5 points 6 hours ago

Also no thank you for attention to this matter. Heh that always made it sound silly anyways. Also I my spelling isn't always on point but no spelling errors?

[–] Skua@kbin.earth 2 points 6 hours ago

I can believe that he wrote this more than I can believe that some MAGA-loyal handler wrote praise be to Allah

And he announces the day he will do it, Iranians are rubbing their hands together right now. They will literally have perfect timing for when to counter-attack this moron.

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 46 points 12 hours ago (3 children)

He’s mentally ill. And not in a good way.

[–] M0oP0o@mander.xyz 5 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Wait, there is a good way?

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 2 points 19 minutes ago

I supposed the good ways if he goes completely off the deep end and starts talking about rat people living in his head, his handlers won't be able to hide it anymore and they'll have to remove him from office.

[–] rwrwefwef@sh.itjust.works 14 points 12 hours ago (2 children)

Question is, what does this say about the American population for electing, and continuing to tolerate someone like that?

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 26 points 12 hours ago (2 children)

It says media is insanely powerful and we were idiots for not understanding that at any time in the last 60 years.

Other countries - it’s coming for you. You’ll have your own MAGA cult soon if you don’t already.

Not too downplay the serious threat the hard right represent all over the world but it's not likely that they will get mega into other countries. Firstly because everyone can see what an absolute disaster they have been in the US but also because Trump isn't possible without a cult of personality and that's really hard to achieve.

Le Pen tried it in France and Nigel Farage is trying it in the UK and both have run up against the limits of support. There's always going to be the racists and the stupid who will vote for them (who then turned to inviting when things don't go their way), but they don't have the personality credits to convince the fence sitters over to their side.

[–] merc@sh.itjust.works 4 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Other countries don't have this problem because they don't have the free for all media landscape that the US does.

For example, in virtually every other country there's a well funded public broadcaster. And, even when that public broadcaster isn't dominating the viewership, it's normally seen as the most trustworthy news source. So, people can watch their favourite news channel, but when they want to fact check something they know they can tune in the public broadcaster.

Other countries are also not as insane as the US when it comes to defunding public education. Having a population that is able to tell fact from fiction is seen as important by most other countries, even if that means slightly higher taxes. The US sees well funded education as communism, and is trying to get rid of it, or defund it at a minimum.

The US is also one of the only places with a true 2-party duopoly with no other options for voters. Even in countries where only 2 parties have a realistic chance at forming a government, there are other parties that siphon off the crazies, and/or put pressure on the mainstream parties from both left and right.

I've lived in 4 other countries and have visited dozens more. The US is truly unique, and not in a good way. I'm not saying it couldn't happen somewhere else, but it's much more likely to happen in the US because of unique US dysfunction.

[–] Tinidril@midwest.social 3 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

What's happening in the US was based on what had already been done in Hungary. Every single thing you mentioned happened there first.

A former soviet republic that never managed to stabilize after their soviet time doesn't really count.

More like Uncle Pedo sold both of your kidneys to the triads and now he's trying to blame the family's anger at him on your asthmatic lungs not being good enough for the triad, so that's why he sold them the second kidney instead of 1 lung and 1 kidney.

[–] Shortstack@reddthat.com 42 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

I don’t think anyone has ever accused trump of being good at poker but this is a masterpiece in how to tell your enemy that their chokehold is very effective and you have no power to change that.

He claims the art of the deal but man when there's something that stops him in his tracks, is this supposed to be good negotiation? What page in his book is this from?

[–] GalacticSushi@piefed.blahaj.zone 29 points 13 hours ago* (last edited 13 hours ago)

Trump on Wednesday: But I want to be very clear about something. This literally means nothing to me.

Trump today:

[–] atropa@piefed.social 26 points 13 hours ago

What about releasing the Epstein files

[–] bonenode@piefed.social 38 points 14 hours ago (2 children)

Praise be to Allah? Trump apparently converted to Islam.

[–] rwrwefwef@sh.itjust.works 23 points 13 hours ago

During Easter no less.

[–] abbadon420@sh.itjust.works 18 points 13 hours ago

I guess he's trying to insult them. I think he's confusing praising allah with picturing muhammed. I gues he'll learn eventually and his next tweet will be some horrible AI generated depiction of muhammed.

[–] cronenthal@discuss.tchncs.de 63 points 15 hours ago (9 children)

I can't accept any screenshot of a Trump post as real unless there's a link to the original.

[–] teyrnon@sh.itjust.works 20 points 14 hours ago (2 children)

Yet you cannot dismiss it out of hand no matter how dumb it is, if he posted that he just launched nukes at the Sun in retaliation for solar flares that put out our Communications systems, one could not be entirely certain he didn't actually write that.

It's more likely he's had another stroke and is laid up in Walter Reed than he wrote this.

[–] Fredselfish@lemmy.world 16 points 12 hours ago

No he didn't write this, grammar use is to good and his would be in all caps, because he can't fucking see with glasses.

[–] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 4 points 9 hours ago

His death reports just had to be exaggerated, huh?

[–] timestatic@feddit.org 48 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

To see Trump say praise to allah is actually kind of hilarious if it wasn't for the circumstances. Chances are he's just gonna move the deadline again tho. Or just destroy civilian infrastructure but I doubt he'll destroy the oil infrastructure.

So will his trial in The Hague just be a bunch of MAGA Tik Toks covering his deranged posts promising he will commit war crimes?

[–] zout@fedia.io 11 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

I like your thinking, but he's never going to be tried in the Hague. The US has made clear it will invade the Netherlands if a US citizen is going on trial here, and besides, he's either mentally unfit or he won't live that long.

[–] Skua@kbin.earth 2 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

For what it's worth, the act only authorises the president to command that to happen rather than requiring them to do so. It has a bunch of prohibitions on doing anything to facilitate the ICC, including on extraditing American citizens to get them on trial, but if he somehow does end up in the Hague then the then-president is 100% within their rights to just abandon him there

Of course I don't expect him to ever come close to winding up in the Hague in the first place. What a beautiful sight it would be if it did happen

[–] merc@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 hours ago

They'd never do it. Plenty of war crimes have been done by Democratic-party run governments too. They don't want to open that door, even if Trump's warcrimes are 10x as bad and 100x as obvious.
