(78,673 posts)Goes after women who cannot fight back.
Or are not very popular.
Michelle Obama is loved, admired, respected, and highly popular.
Going after her serves no purpose and will only hurt him.

Since his cognitive test word lists are apparently things he can see, I wonder where CAMELTOE came from?

(8,872 posts)No online search for that text finds it, it doesn't show up anywhere on Twitter, where some folks mirror his Truth Social posts, and folks are reposting genuine screenshots of his rantings and reposts, which are bad enough:




I'll break my habit of not posting tweets on DU nowadays as I can't find this elsewhere:

President Trump has posted hundreds of times in the last two hours.
Here is a screen recording of the posts.
The video is nearly five minutes long.

I don't think we're quite at "BABOON, SNAKE, OBAMA, SALAMI, KAMALA!" yet, but it's probably just a matter of time.

(38,620 posts)it did seem beyond the pale, and more like a spoof done by his social media interns

Emrys
(8,872 posts)The only screenshot of it I can find on Twitter is from that same account, MP Arizona. He doesn't seem to make a habit of posting spoofs, but is generally anti-Trump. Either he got taken in himself, he knows it's a fake but what the hell, or he generated it himself - in which case, bravo!
leftstreet
(38,620 posts)It's funny, but then not funny
The X Grok bot says it's not a hoax, but who knows. You should go sign up at Truth Social and get us some screenshots. Take one for the team!!
(just kidding)
Emrys
(8,872 posts)and I'll come back here and let you know if it gets picked up by anybody reliable and/or goes viral.
If legit, you'd hope it would be all over the media, but who knows nowadays?

(7,997 posts)Never once believed him that he doesn't do drugs. He just thinks the drugs he does aren't really drugs, kinda like how some alcoholics insist beer isn't alcohol.
Irish_Dem
(78,673 posts)Said to snort it instead of taking it in pill form as prescribed.
Last time he was in the WH, the list of drugs prescribed by the WH doctor
was eye popping in terms of the strong psych meds being used.
Uppers and downers.

(78,673 posts)it would explain his erratic behavior, the manic activity and the falling asleep.
They have him in go and no go drugs as it is called in the military.
Uppers and downers.
This is very dangerous for Trump. At his age with his health risks, they could kill him.
And we know what he is doing with the date rape drugs.

(17,353 posts)he is becoming more and more desperate, which makes him more and more dangerous.
I'm thinking, and this is just my opinion, the next few weeks/months are going to see him get so bad that even the repigs in Congress are finally going to take some action against him, it's already started, but it's only going to get worse for him and his toadies.

(8,872 posts)I'm guessing the latest polling has somehow broken through his dense skull and defences and is freaking him out. His hold on the Republican Party is slipping and reps are bailing. Name me a success he's had recently, even in his own terms. He sees threats from potential lawsuits and the payback for his past behaviour, which he's always been able to more or less avoid in the past, but the walls are closing in.
So he's trying to keep hold of and rally his base, because even some among it are growing disillusioned, and the only way he knows to do that is to try to feed it (not physically, of course) and fling shite at any hate figures he can dream up and that he can't shake from living in his brownfield head rent-free. It seems to have worked for him in the past, and he has nothing else at all to fall back on.
He's not familiar with the concept of less is more, has no functioning filters, is evidently gaga, and has no one around him who dares to gently or firmly remove his phone from his tiny paws and encourage him to go do something, ANYTHING else.

Hugin
(37,229 posts)Hes loony-ing. Sort of like sundowners, but worse.
I take it as more proof that the bulk of his Gaslight Social posts are written by someones else (autopuke) or less likely he had written them previously and had them on a timer. Hoping that the outburst would be noticed and become a news item. Which, alas, it has.

Democrats need to push the drug trafficker's bullshit pardon.

You'd think the Republicans who continue to enable him in Congess would realize it's not only Democrats who will suffer the consequences of his instability. He's putting us all in jeopardy. I get power and money are important to them, but as the saying goes, "you can't take it with you."
They need to put the pressure on someone to invoke the 25th ammendment.

(420 posts)It seems most of last nights post were reposts (Im having a hard time finding many without social media), so my thoughts are on his posts in general. Whenever Ive seen a post by Trump this term, especially longer ones, I have sensed another voice. Cheung?Scavino? Miller? Someone else? AI? All of the above? Sometimes they read like somewhat intelligible right wing screed with an attempt to Trump it up with a few weirdly placed uppercase letters and Trumpian insults or self aggrandizement. Sometimes they read like Trump has an editor. But, recently Ive noticed some that read like a kid using AI to flesh out a point theyre trying to make. At least, I hope its AI, because some seem too strange to be human edits but also too carefully worded to be Trump himself.
