Mounting evidence suggests that the man-child president, the president of peace, is living in a made-up reality that is usually experienced by those who have never moved beyond the mindset of a child, wanting a pat on the head for everything they do and if not getting the pat on the head, taking their toys and holing up in butt-hurt-land where they take sticking pins to voodoo dolls to wreak havoc on anyone who who doesn’t think they’re the greatest person on earth.
President Donald Trump, rejecting criticism from within his own party, the economic challenges facing the American people, and polling on Greenland, suggested that his second-term accomplishments were so extensive that they should render the 2026 midterm elections unnecessary.
In an interview with Reuters, President Trump “expressed frustration” that Republicans may lose control of the House of Representatives and possibly the Senate in the November midterm elections.
Calling it “some deep psychological thing,” Trump told Reuters that “when you win the presidency, you don’t win the midterms.”
He’s got that part right. It is some deep psychological thing.
He then “boasted” of his accomplishments, telling the reporter, “when you think of it, we shouldn’t even have an election.”
Trump, Reuters reported, “repeatedly dismissed concerns by the public, business leaders and even his fellow Republicans on issues ranging from the future of Greenland and the criminal investigation into Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell, to the state of the economy.”
He deemed “fake” a Reuters/Ipsos poll that found little support — just 17 percent — for him seizing control of Greenland.
He repeatedly declared, “I don’t care” when confronted with news that some Senate Republicans oppose the Department of Justice’s investigation into Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell, and “when reminded of JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon’s concerns that White House interference in the Fed could harm the economy.”
Ah yes! “I don’t care”. The delirious mantra of fucking idiots because they lack the mental capabilities to discern anything beyond the twisted mind-fucks their brains send out each day.
Trump also dismissed the concerns of the American people over high prices they are facing, instead incorrectly declaring the economy the strongest “in history.” He told Reuters that he simply needed to do a better job promoting his achievements.
He appeared to suggest that “he follows his own compass” rather than put much stock in public opinion.
“A lot of times, you can’t convince a voter,” he said. “You have to just do what’s right. And then a lot of the things I did were not really politically popular. They turned out to be when it worked out so well.”
On actions by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), Reuters reported that Trump “said he would continue sending armed agents into cities, claiming that his efforts had taken ‘thousands of murderers out of our country.”
Reuters noted that there is “no evidence to support that assertion.” – alternet.com
There’s no evidence to back up any of his bent claims, and not enough Americans to tell him to take his toys and go fuck himself. Bummer!
So, he gets to continue on his bloodlust campaigns, all over the world.
