I can't tell if this is real or not. Not my president so I don't keep up with everything he does

Hid did call apple CEO "Tim Apple".

It's hilarious but it shouldn't. I didn't know

Thanks for the source. After watching the video, the "Mr. Japan" bit was honestly much less noteworthy than the completely incoherent rambling about sending letters to countries congratulating them on the privilege of being able to "shop in the USA". He just kept repeating that and then naming random percentages. It felt like I was having a stroke trying to understand what he was even trying to say.

This. Also, he apparently still doesn't understand how tarifs work. Is he still under the impression the country he puts the tarifs on pays them and not the company who imports from them?

Have y'all seen the clip where a reporter at alligator aushwitz asks him how long detainees will be held there, and he doesn't understand the question, gets it repeated, and then still doesn't understand so starts rambling about how much he loves Florida and will be there as long as he can. He also takes the opportunity to say the oval office wasn't well cared for, but he's cleaned up and made it a "beautiful diamond".

I will give trump one thing, the comedic moments you get out of him like this

[–] LovableSidekick@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

I used to feel that way, but Trump has done so much damage he's just not fucking funny anymore, and I wish people would stop generating all the noise to point out how stupid he is. We know, and by now it's WAAAY past funny.

There was a lot of talk about his mental decline, so should anyone be surprised?

[–] billwashere@lemmy.world 26 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I’m terrible with names. I fully admit it. But if I forget a name I just ask “what was his name again?” or something along those lines. A normal person would just keep saying “the prime minister”, or I don’t know, just make the effort to remember the names of major world leaders since it’s your fucking job. Not Mr. Japan OR Tim Apple.

Why some people think he’s intelligent is beyond me.

If Biden had done something like this there'd would half a bazillion articles about how he's falling apart from the left and right. Trump does it and everyone's just "oh how quaint a trumpism"

[–] sharkfucker420@lemmy.ml 19 points 1 week ago (17 children)

Its almost like the people in control of this country prefer the far right over the middle right

We shall now refer to that one guy who golfs a lot and pretends to be president as Mr. Facism, man who pretends to lead the American Facist Party.

I remember when George W. Bush was grilled on the names of world leaders at the time and he flunked it hard... but even he wouldn't have made something as stupid as Mr. Japan...
