Trump just posted this and then took it down after the reactions started coming in. His response was, semi-quote”I saw this as me being a doctor attending to the sick. You have to really be twisted to see it any other way”. How much more do you need to see Trump as extraordinarily delusional. He really thinks he’s like Jesus, but better.

Trump at a gaggle spouting lies and old facts. I don’t believe anything he says. He blockaded the Strait!! Because Iran’s blockade wasn’t enough. That makes sense, just like most of the rest of the shit he does.

You’re the only one that calls it that. And those who are your sycophants or some Americans. Same as the Dept of War (properly the Dept Defense and Kennedy Center and the Institute of Peace. You can slap your name all over the place - we don’t care a whit. Once you’re gone, all of those will be ripped down and named revert back.

Fox News: You said hundreds of super tankers are headed to the Gulf of America to buy oil and gas from the US. What can you tell us about that? Trump: Well, I can tell you that it used to be called the Gulf of Mexico. Now it's called the Gulf of America because of me. One of my little sidelines. People are so happy. I must tell you, I was thinking about calling it the Gulf of Trump.

I'm starting to think Kushner and Witkoff aren't good negotiators.

Do you believe, as Trump has repeatedly shouted, “We won. We won the war!”.

I always liked Swalwell, but these are horrible allegations about repeated rape and sexual abuse. I believe in “Everyone is considered innocent until found guilty by a court of their peers”. Nevertheless, Swalwell should immediately drop out of the race for CA Governor. He’s young. If acquitted, he can run again. If guilty, he belongs in prison.

Trump is clearly insane. No joke. He orders the Armed Forces to effectuate his whims and as if they were servants. Trump had the bright idea that since the Iranians blocked passage through the Strait and it caused global problems, he ought to do the same. The nuclear weapon imagined and the ICBMs needed are years away. Iran was never an imminent threat to the US. There was no reason for us to attack Iran spend $30 mil and counting.

Trump: "I predict they come back and give us everything we want. And I told my people, 'I want everything. I don't want 90%, I don't 95%.' I told them, 'I want everything.' They have no cards."

Jesus. What the actual fuck Lindsey? You’re still trying to blame Joe Biden for I don’t know what. Trump won the election and has been in office this time for nearly 15 months. Soon after he was inaugurated Trump fired all of Biden’s administration, many of which had education and training at their specific jobs. Trimp simply fired them all and replaced them with billionaire friends of his. That’s the cabinet and other high level jobs. And somehow, Graham keeps dragging Biden into it, no matter what the problem is. Graham, you are passed your sell by date. No one cares what you say, You are a laughingstock in the Senate and they all talk about you behind your back. So quit blaming poor old Joe Biden and try focusing on some of Trump’s self-inflicted catastrophes.

Lindsey Graham: We're dealing with a failed presidency called Joe Biden. The Iranians have cash because of Obama and Biden. Now they are on their back foot and we're going to finish this job. I pray for a deal but if they refuse a deal—ask Maduro what happens.

Only if Trump actually pays for it. His own money. Not donations, gifts gifts from his billionaire cabinet and others, or from my tax dollars.

Anyone out there in favor of Trump’s 250 ft. replica of the Arc de Triomphe?

The jobs report is in chaos. In the 12 months recent, 5 months showed job losses. During Trump’s first year of his second term, we lost 34,000 jobs. The lowest hiring in 6 years. Unemployment rose to 4.3%. Inflation now 3.3%. This doesn’t look so good to me. Economist Nobel Prize laureate Paul Krugman agrees. More Trump failures.

“U.S. job openings fell more than expected in February and hiring dropped to the lowest level in nearly six years, ​government data showed”. From Reuters 3/31/26. So much winning.

In a surprise to all usual attendees of the White House Correspondents Dinner, CBS has invited Sec Defense Pete Hegseth. But of course it was really Bari Weiss, Trumpy Head of CBS News Division who made the invitation. Hegseth is sure to be the target of a few zingers. For the first time in decades, Donald Trump said he would attend. Trump and Hegseth together! The perfect storm. What a bonanza of targets for roasting, perhaps not all intended in a friendly way. I’ll definitely be watching when it’s broadcast.

I’m not sure that most of us Never-Trumpers ever expected that he would be so outrageously evil and insane. It’s a shock to me, even now. That sound bite about Cuba being next on Trump’s list of nations to be invaded, is one of the most psychotic threats he’s made this term. Rick Wilson is right.
Rick Wilson@TheRickWilson

I'm just going to say this a few thousand more times: Never Trump was always right. We told you who he was. We warned you what he'd do. Reap it.

Trump has posted that Iran and the US will co- manage the Strait of Hormuz. This is totally false. As in completely aspirational. No evidence that Iran has ever received that missive because there has been no refusal yet. Since Iran would never agree to such an outlandish proposal. So once again Trump has lied to us in prime time. Now there are constant calls for impeachment and exercising the 25th Amendment. Let’s move forward on both.

By 1972, after years of war and thousands of casualties Americans were sick of Vietnam. About 60% were against the war. Today, after just 7 weeks, disapproval of Trump’s was has a disapproval rate around 65%. And it’s rising. Another victory for Trump. Close to 2/3 of Americans disapprove of war. That number is likely to increase as more and more Americans disapprove and even international people and governments are protesting the war. HEY TRUMP. STOP THE WAR!!

@AntiTrumpCanada This is a common feeling. He has been a national embarrassment. He is incredibly stupid, a war monger, racist, sexist, traitor, alcoholic, vindictive, evil person. He loves violence and should be prosecuted for war crimes.
