    Tim’s just using the same technique that Putin was told to use when dealing with Trump. Malignant narcissists absolutely love flattery .

      Reminds me of Sorrento-Gillis from The Expanse:

      He doesn’t care about treason—that’s just him parroting you because you talked to him last. If he spoke to a janitor he’d be passionately declaiming about a fucking mop!

          Except that I doubt Trump would ever actually talk to a janitor.

    This isn’t a U-Turn in the slightest. It’s an article manufacturing consent for fascism by an oligarch-owned propaganda machine.

    This sort of narcissistic behavior is textbook gaslighting.

    No different than the Mamdani meeting.

    His brain is tapioca. He probably believed whatever Fox was spewing about Walz until he talked to him and discovered that, no, actually Walz is working on this and not just eating bon-bons or something.

        I wouldn’t. I want him to survive long enough to get thoroughly humiliated in court, and I definitely don’t want him to become a martyr. I want him to die in disgrace doing something banal, embarrassing, and publicly stupid. Something so embarrassing that people erupt into spontaneous and uncontrollable laughter just hearing his name. I don’t just want him dead, I want his whole movement to be completely discredited. If he’s assassinated, then forevermore his followers will remember him with fondness and his enemies will remember him with fear. But if he wipes his nose on the Epstein Files, trips on a hamburger, falls face-first into a diet coke, and drowns, he’ll never again be any more than a punchline.

    One of my favorite commentators is historian Heather Cox Richardson and she postulates that given Trump’s advanced age and inability to contain his outbursts, the administration may be propping him up with stimulants.

      I thought everyone just knew that. They probably have the best docs and tech available to make it happen and he’s on borrowed time.

    “We have had such tremendous SUCCESS in Washington, D.C., Memphis, Tennessee, and New Orleans, Louisiana, and virtually every other place that we have ‘touched’ and, even in Minnesota, Crime is way down, but both Governor Walz and I want to make it better!”

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
