Fake news.
Trump will get his new bestie to design some sort of floating platform so that his entire estate rises above the waves.
To this day even with the Covid bleach comment, his repeated misunderstanding of the Clinton server story, or even the suggestion that he thinks immigrant visas are credit cards, the funniest example of this was a biographer standing in the oval office with him and telling him Bush Sr’s comments that the office is oval so that it has no corners because as president you cannot retreat to the corner and hide. Trump then started examining the room to try to find evidence of corners or any other spots where someone might hide to see how accurate the statement was.

Shoehorning Lara Trump into co-chair of the RNC suggests you might be onto something.

He should have got “Britain Trump” to send him a fridge.
Spot the difference :
The whole Putin thing - ‘no way’ ‘way’
was hilarious, and what was that about Hiroshima and Nagasaki not being so bad?

Good thread connecting the dots on what benefit Sisi got for allegedly helping Trump get into power in 2016.
https://x.com/gm_silverman/status/1825356011554697630
TLDR - Egypt have benefited from a close relationship with the US for several generations, but that broke down in recent years after Morsi was removed by Sisi in a coup. Sisi knew that a Trump presidency was open for business and was a cheap investment for the legitimization a Trump admin would do of their “favourite dictator” if they just pad the entry fee.

There’s no ‘de facto’ about it … he is one. When that dickhead was boasting about Orban singing his praises the other night , that came hot on the heels of a meeting between the two at Mar-a-Lago where it’s almost certain that Orban was acting a proxy for Putin who he had a meeting with a couple of weeks earlier.
It’s astounding to me that because Bill Barr was able to dismiss the Mueller investigation in such a deceptive way that people are still unwilling to admit what is patently obvious.

Definitely a Russian asset, but not in the sense of recruited, trained, knowing… as McCabe said. But why so friendly to Putin?
At the least, it’s economic. There are lots of ways, and lots of reasons, why Putin could enrich Trump - business, natural resources, military secrets. And we all know that Trump likes money and will do anything to get it.
Beyond the most obvious, an old agent like Putin will know everything that any high profile western person ever did in Russia, and I’m certain he has the goods on Trump and could sink him without trace if he chose to reveal the evidence. Hotel rooms. Beauty pageants. I’m certain as can be Putin has footage.
And finally, Trump is a wannabe strongman, and he would love to be a dictator too, so there’s an affinity with Putin’s style that appeals to him.
Robert Mueller ran a lengthy and very detailed investigation, and it should have sank Trump but it was too much for the public to consume. We’ve been conditioned to bullet points and sound bites, and appallingly Barr hopped in at the end to give the most biased and sanitized take possible, and Trump got off scot free. Mueller was studious and detailed. He was from an era when people actually read, and were informed. A simple act of PR at the end undid the weight of his work.
Anyhow, Trump is definitely a Russian asset.
In terms of this election, Harris would do well to mobilize the hundreds of thousands of Poles who live in swing states, and let them know very clearly that if Putin is allowed to annex significant parts of Ukraine, it won’t be long before he is looking at Poland.

Well, she’s already mentioned them in the debate, which is probably a first for that community.

Swifties and Poles. Should be enough!
Because he helped him win the first time and he’s doing exactly the same this time around.
