we're cooked

I literally broke an accidental streak of not logging into x for like a year to make sure the last three ‘screenshots’ of trump weren’t real, including this one. Seriously though, was the ‘praise Allah’ one real or not? I honestly can’t tell for sure if it’s satire or just something one of his handlers deleted.

not only is it real (imo) it’s the default reaction from anything insane from this man.

I hope he drops dead on stage with cameras rolling and he’s unable to be resuscitated. That shit will play everywhere.

He would be remembered as a martyr. Someone who gave up his life for all of us.

He’ll be remembered as the giant piece of shit he is.
BCsven@lemmy.ca 1 month ago
Not sure why you got downvotes, that’s exactly what his followers would think.
I saw a video of a young girl in the middle easyt conflict who’s mom had died. Her response when asked if she was sad about her parents being dead, was less emotion about loss and her words were I’m glad she was martyred, I hope someday I get to do the same. That’s what MAGA will be like.

I hope he shits himself to death on the toilet so all the upper staff have to look at the stupident fucking photos of this idiot on a toilet and we don’t ever have to see it.
Strider@lemmy.world 1 month ago
Do you think resuscitating him would go well (it mostly doesn’t anyway)? So don’t dismiss that option.
Tigeroovy@lemmy.ca 1 month ago
True, but I’d rather it just be definitive.
seggturkasz@lemmy.world 1 month ago
I don’t get it. This guy is completely nuts. Why make shit up? Just give it an hour and you’ll have something tremendously fucked up that he actually posts…
BananaTrifleViolin@lemmy.world 1 month ago
Yeah it makes no sense; he literally posted something as bad as this:
Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!! Open the Fuckin’ Strait, you crazy bastards, or you’ll be living in Hell - JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah. President DONALD J. TRUMP"
We don’t need a fake variant of it.
Asfalttikyntaja@sopuli.xyz 1 month ago
That’s something funny to be honest. I understand that it’s supposed to be that way, but I picture him being jumping angry like some toddler and screaming this out red faced and I can’t get that out of my head. I think he’s really loosing his marbles because he can’t get out of that stupid war he started and he’s been realizing now that it was a mistake and he doesn’t have anyone to blame for it.

Conspiracy brain thinks of a few reasons:
-
To preemptively establish what “real crazy” looks like so that we tolerate what he’s actually saying and doing more
-
To muddy the lines between fake and real so that everyone is too confused to fact check anything
-
Garden variety people being stupid and wanting to exaggerate something because exaggeration=funny, and they’re not aware of the harm this does
-
To bait the left into accepting the same sort of “the fact that this is believable (to me) PROVES that this is valid possibility and worldview” mentality that the right adopted a decade ago, which ultimately makes people much easier to manipulate
-
To position the left as yet another entity that promotes its views via misleading “jokes” that on the one hand legitimately misinform people, but when called out can be defended as “just a joke that you were too stupid to recognize” - that is, borrowing another successful but evil strategy that the right has recently made use of

To be honest, i ment it as a rethorical question. But this is so cool.
I think this particular post is in category 3, as most of these are likely not made with malicious intent, but i might be naive…

This does not appear to be real. He did have a similar truth social post:
Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!! Open the Fuckin’ Strait, you crazy bastards, or you’ll be living in Hell - JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah. President DONALD J. TRUMP
The posted image doesnt exist at the date shown in the picture. Its effectively misinformation as its similar to but not actually a thing he posted
Someone posted this archive tool, this links to 100 items per page, you can scroll past the date in the photo and the post doesnt exist: https://www.trumpstruth.org/?per_page=100

We really can’t differentiate between satire and misinformation anymore, can we?
Cris_Citrus@piefed.zip 1 month ago
Its not really satire I’d its almost exactly what he said but slightly worse, theres not really a joke or commentary and it does succeed at being misleading, I feel like describing it that way is unreasonable.
There are people in this tread litterally claiming its true because there are sources that substantiate him saying something very similar.
myotheraccount@lemmy.world 1 month ago
How would we, we can’t even differentiate between satire and REALITY anymore recently

The real one was far worse.
Cris_Citrus@piefed.zip 1 month ago
That may be fair I don’t fully understand the reap one- is the point that hes gonna bomb their power plants and bridges? The fake one suggests hes going to nuke them…

… the Trump bomb means he literally explodes where it stands with the force of “5 magatons” (he shits himself 5 times).
The very surprising part is how the Tsar bomb had any magatons at all.
thedeadwalking4242@lemmy.world 1 month ago
Is he threating nuclear war???
Doomsider@lemmy.world 1 month ago
This is the guy who threatened to nuke a hurricane because it wasn’t going the direction he wanted. I think we can safely assume all options, no matter how batshit crazy, are on the table.

What I don’t get if it’s really such a priority from him and he is so mad…doesnt America have enough bombs to just level the region? Can’t he just make a call and say “kill everyone, make it glass” and it would be done?
That would be horrible to do. I’m not condoning it and thousands of lives would be lost. That said in the 80s America could literally destroy the earth… With advancements in technology and the money we spent couldn’t they just say “do it” and make the whole area done for atleast a few generations? How do they lose wars? If they are so dead set on this can’t they just carpet bomb the entire country?
Bluescluestoothpaste@sh.itjust.works 1 month ago
I think the military is pushing back on him, that’s why they fired four generals yesterday. If it were up to him we would have dropped many nukes already.
vrek@programming.dev 1 month ago
Seems systemic… Spend trillions every year and never win a war since desert storm or ww2 before that. It’s not budget, it’s not man power either the military are doing something really poorly or there is some type of corruption somewhere taking that money…
Heavybell@lemmy.world 1 month ago
I’m under the impression that no, the US does not have enough conventional weapons to do this. If he were to escalate to non-conventional weapons that would change things but I don’t want to think about how the rest of the world would react to the US carpet bombing an entire country with nukes…
vrek@programming.dev 1 month ago
I agree I’m just confused how us seems to spend so much on military yet lose every war. It’s like a jock spending 12 hrs a day in the gym and losing every boxing match against the local chess club.
Not to mention so much news that we “rescued” one airmam from a down helicopter. Great, now compare that to D-day or any battle in the US civil war…no contest. We are using so many resources for “war” rather right or wrong doesn’t matter, we do nothing but lose. I’d fire every officer in the military, you have an effective unlimited budget, you have millions of man hours at your disposal but consistently fail at every “war” since… Desert storm? Even that is questionable. Even before that have Vietnam… Lost… Korea… Didn’t actually lose but still didn’t win… Ww2 ok yeah we won with cooperation from most other countries.
US is a “super power” and spend more than the 9 countries in the top 10 of military spending but we always lose…wtf??

DandomRude@piefed.social 1 month ago
I couldn’t agree more, especially since, for anyone not from the US, even the most moderate White House posts are so utterly absurd that these days it’s really hard to tell the difference between satire and real-life clown show.
I can assure you that everyone is trying their best to adjust somehow, but it’s really hard given this level of absurdity.
lemsip@sh.itjust.works 1 month ago
I don’t follow US politics very closely, but the other day I saw the official whitehouse twitter account posted footage of them bombing someone, with wii sports ‘nice shot’ shit over the top.
These cunts have no concept of remorse, they’re having fun and joking around.
Seeing that shit doesn’t make anyone respect them, it makes us wish somebody did the same thing back to them.
