Septuagenarian who once threw rocks at babies takes a victory lap for being an incoherent, unadulterated prick

During a rally-style appearance before uniformed U.S. troops in Qatar on Thursday, Trump floated the idea of a “fourth” term and falsely claimed victory in the 2020 election he lost. The appearance drew swift criticism for blurring the line between military service and political theater.

“As you know, we won three elections, okay?” Trump told the largely silent troops (video below). “And some people want us to do a fourth. I don’t know—I’ll have to think about that.”

“You saw the new, the new hat. The hottest hat is, it says, ‘Trump 2028: We’re driving the left crazy.'”

“When you see that. We didn’t need that hat, but, uh, it was it’s been an amazing period of time,” he concluded.

This is why most of the performative BS they do should actually be ignored. They are the epitome of the phrase “let’s give them something to talk about.

Like Trump having a McDonalds trailer on his recent visit overseas. Or him Musk and Jr. eating McDonalds on a flight together. Or them wearing the clown 🤡 suit … and countless other examples.

Reacting to their most contrived antics lessens reactions to real malfeasance.
