Trump: “Tucker's a low IQ person that has absolutely no idea what's going on. He calls me all the time; I don't respond to his calls. I don't deal with him. I like dealing with smart people, not fools.”

On the backs of veterans who sacrificed their health and wellbeing for this great nation.
You are part of the problem .
Anyone but MAGA!

@SpencerHakimian George Bush had respect for the office he held & the institutions under it, and the other branches of government. Bush worked within the framework of the Constitution. Bush treated those who opposed him with dignity & respect, which reflected more on Bush than those opposed.
English
Question for my Republican friends.
At this point, what significant differences remain between George Bush and Donald Trump?
English
@McFaul He’s not insulting him, you’re just insulted by reality Micheal 🤡
Just like Barnum Zelensky is a media showman who knows how to sell a narrative no one considers him a serious statesman.
If the truth offends you maybe it’s time to reassess your ideology.

There’s a debate over the legality of the actions against Iran but the law is clear. While it appears intense, this is in fact a limited action, not an occupation, and not an open-ended war. The law is clear, and the President is operating within it.
English
@RepDanCrenshaw Might you call it something like a “special military operation”?
English
@BulwarkOnline This is cosplay for Hegseth. He is way out of his depth.
Trump has called for regime change, to a Western friendly regime. That will require close oversight by Western forces.
The US is now responsible for the devastated infrastructure.
Hegseth does love the cool cliches.
English
Hegseth: "No stupid rules of engagement. No nation-building quagmire. No democracy-building exercise. No politically correct wars…An effort of this scope will include casualties. War is Hell and always will be."

@Smittie @JenniferJJacobs This is the school bully divvying up the school yard - this is Trump’s mentality. He wants to impose that on the world.

"If we don't take Greenland, Russia or China will, and I'm not letting that happen. If we don't take Greenland, Russia or China will take Greenland," Trump says in AF1 gaggle. "I'd love to make a deal with them. It's easier. But one way or the other, we're going to have Greenland."
English
@KenGardner11 It is his pretense for what he has previously described as a real estate deal.
English
Where does he keep getting the notion that Russia or China would take Greenland unless we first take it? We already have military bases in Greenland. Moreover, Denmark is a NATO country. This whole obsession with taking it by force is insane and very dangerous.

@JohnAmMe547 @JenniferJJacobs Haha. I remember that commercial.
This is your brain.
This is your brain on drugs.

Trump telling Raytheon how to manage their finances and credit card companies how much interest they can charge are FAR left positions.
The Constitution doesn’t give the Executive that power.
You can make all the excuses you want, but you know that’s true

Q: Have you seen the Melania movie yet?
Trump: I’ve seen pieces of it. It’s incredible….It’s going to be doing the premier at The Trump Kennedy Center. It’s a very hard ticket. Everybody,Wayne Gretzky and his wife. Beautiful wife..everybody wants tickets
English
Q: "Are you okay if…NATO effectively ceases to exist?"
Trump: "I'm the one that saved NATO."
Q: "Would you pull the U.S. out of NATO?"
Trump: "Maybe. NATO would be upset if I did it…I like NATO, I just wonder whether or not if we needed NATO, would they be there for us? I'm not sure they would."

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but Trump issuing stupid policy ideas on social media is not “the law.”
Scratch that: I know lots of people who need to hear that.

Reporter: On the credit card rate cap—what if the credit card companies don’t respond? Trump: Then they are in violation of the law. Very severe things.

Trump on taking over Greenland:
If it affects NATO, then it affects NATO. But, you know, they need us much more than we need them
English
@NorthStarRight @PollTracker2024 You suppose maybe the citizens of Greenland should have a day in what happens?
English
@PollTracker2024 Best case scenario is Denmark realizes we're not playing and decides to get paid.
Everyone walks away happy (well, sort of) and we have an orderly transition.

“Sources say that the policy 'hawks' around the US President, led by political adviser Stephen Miller, have been so emboldened by the success of the operation to capture Venezuela's leader Nicolas Maduro that they want to move quickly to seize the island before Russia or China makes a move.”

Daily Mail: President Trump has ordered his special forces commanders to draw up a plan for the invasion of Greenland but is being resisted by senior military figures dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1…

@charlescwcooke @actingliketommy Doesn't change the fact that blue states did not, on the whole, vote for what is happening in their state. The voted for something else.
English
@actingliketommy It’s because federal law applies in every state, irrespective of whether that state voted for the incumbent. Hope that helps.
English
Maga keeps saying "we voted for this" but, no... Minnesota actually voted against this. They voted against Trump and his agenda.
So did Illinois, and California, and Oregon, and New York.
So why is Trump sending ICE everywhere that voted against his agenda?
English
@Bubblebathgirl @atrupar Trump desperately wanted the Nobel Peace Prize. He is still miffed that he didn't get it. As indicated by the snark toward Norway each time the prize comes up.
Journalists just like bringing it up to see him react.
🤔🤨😏
English
@atrupar President Trump doesn’t need awards. Peace is the award.
English
COLLINS: If Machado gives you her Nobel Peace Prize, will that change your view about her running that country?
TRUMP: Well, I have to speak to her. I think it's very nice she wants to come in, and that's what I understand the reason is. Because Norway is very embarrassed by what took place.
