      I’ve been of the mind it might actually be a reminder of a previous agreement. Remember when they bought a shitload, or there was a transfer of billions for a shitload, of Trump shit coin? Yeah. I think that was when the agreement was made and the customer has reminded him of his obligation.

      Certainly he went over there cap in hand, that’s why he had his team with him. He needed them.

      Well I hope he keeps speaking with Mamdani and Xi because it’s only been after them that he’s actually had actual reasonable takes.

      “I’m not flying 9000 miles to fight a war” might be the most reasonable thing he’s ever said.

      Unfortunately, you can hear his comments directly after China and he keeps saying “I haven’t decided” and “I’m not going to say yet”. Which basically means he hasn’t been told by his billionaire friends and neocons in Washington what to do yet.

          I know it’s a joke. But, there is always a little bit of truth to good jokes. Moments like these really expose the people that are playing “team sports” with politics. A lot of people that haven’t been paying attention for the last 10-20 years try to place all of America’s problems on Trump that in moments like this (or Mamdani) they are not able to understand what Trump really is.

          These types of moments really expose that he is a vessel for the totality of the ruling class made up of Zionist, Boomers, Neocons, and more generally capitalist interest. He is the perfect vessel for following those interests. And every once in awhile, his dumb brain gets exposed to advice that convinced him that it will make him popular.

    [Trump] added: “I’m going to say I have to speak to the person that right now is, you know, you know who he is, that’s running Taiwan.”

    How is he so completely unprepared?

      Nah, a cheque or large buy of trump/melania coin or a tacky ‘gold’ trophy would do it too.

        Simply being the most recent person to talk to Trump is enough. Maybe tomorrow Trump will talk with the president of Taiwan and have the opposite opinion afterward.

        Have you seen him after the talks? He looked completely defeated. They have something on him. Probably pedo stuff.

      No Chinese on the Epstein list, they probably don’t have it, unlike Putin. What they do have however, is a blank cheque.

        They have their own list, and prostitution is way more out in the open there, so it’s not blackmail material to them. But, they (and Russia and Israel) have a lifetime of recorded proof Trump is a sleazeball…and they’re cashing in.

          Prostitution? You think that’s the big evil thing Epstein files are about? You think the billionaires are killing people and destroying the world to cover up sex with prostitutes ?

    He cannot retain information for longer so whatever the last person he talked with said that’s what he’ll repeat.
