REPORTER: On Russia, are you worried about the reports of a military buildup along the borders of Finland and Norway?

TRUMP: No. I don't worry about that at all.

Fits in with the whole L’état, c’est moi thing he’s got going on.

He's envious of his puppet master

I do not own a golf course in Finland, so its cool.

marezila963.bsky.social•10 days ago

They have to reframe the question in "stupid" so the dunce will understand.

vagrantguru.bsky.social•10 days ago

"Mr. President, have you figured out how you're going to blame Finland and Norway for being invaded yet?"

sdambrosio.bsky.social•10 days ago

Trump ruined the WORLD 🌍

tombogee.bsky.social•10 days ago

Typical reply from Trump and to add; we keep thinking there’s a brain in there somewhere…to include the rest of the cabinet’s responses and actions. At no time in the history of U.S. have we seen cabinet secretaries and agency heads lack intelligence and required experience to do their jobs.

leerowan.bsky.social•10 days ago

He doesn't. He doesn't worry about anything and he doesn't take any responsibility.

BUT WE ALREADY KNOW THAT..

cherylord.bsky.social•10 days ago

I doubt he can find Finland and Norway on a map.

spottedfawn.bsky.social•10 days ago

Unfortunately I think official US policy now is we don't give af about things like this. The only certainty is that if Putin does try to seize territory from either country the rapist felon 8n the WH & his deplorable party will blame Biden.

stephonemah.bsky.social•10 days ago

And yet plans for a "golden dome"? Oh wait that's probably a money laundering scheme, right?

booond.bsky.social•10 days ago

He is actually saying, "I don't give a flying fuck about any of this shit as long as I keep getting the bribes. But, yeah, dumb fucks keep asking those questions."

overit1971.bsky.social•10 days ago

This is such a fantastic point.

"Troop movement? The troops are welcome to move freely because they make the best cookies. Thin Mints...Do-Si-Dos...S'mores. Tremendous cookies with lots of flavor. Sometimes I eat a whole box at 10 AM sitting in bed watching my favorites on Fox News talk about their favorite President..."

kozochkon.bsky.social•10 days ago

He doesn't know where Norway and Finland are.

seekerofnoble.bsky.social•10 days ago

Are you worried that your wife is sleeping with your best friends?

No, I don't worry about it at all.

BTW why did you say friends? I had only one friend and he is dead.

achfraser.bsky.social•10 days ago

Is the absence of policy a policy?

starant.bsky.social•10 days ago

Trump comment interpretation:
I work for Putin, so what do you think?

danrar.bsky.social•10 days ago

In this regime there’s no difference between official policy and his personal feelings.

nberlat.bsky.social•10 days ago

like, he just has absolutely no inkling that "president" is a job, or that he has professional responsibilities. he really just thinks of it as like a hobby but the hobby is that he's god.

liammci.bsky.social•10 days ago

It also clearly just leaves his brain the second he’s done answering. Lol.

poptart2nd.bsky.social•10 days ago

He literally cannot fathom responsibility to anyone but himself.

thewettanktops.bsky.social•10 days ago

To be fair, the media has given him literally no inkling for the past decade that anything from "umm i dunno" to "eh dont care" are not perfectly acceptable answers when being asked about a core function of the Presidency.

alissa914.bsky.social•10 days ago

Or like how he treats his responsibility as a father..... like it's someone else's job when he's got the job title.

kingedawg.bsky.social•10 days ago

We are now the audience to his own personal 24/7 reality show. He exists only to be interviewed, so he can give his thoughts about things to a camera in a way that seems official, and therefore credible to some

jay-baller-reborn.bsky.social•10 days ago

He’s never had a job so hard to imagine he would treat it as such

lawnguyland.bsky.social•10 days ago

I imagine that's because our beloved POTUS has never had an actual job in his entire life

mrreciprocity.bsky.social•10 days ago

In part, I think, because he's never HAD a job. He's never had any kind of responsibility. His entire existence has just been branding.

nzlawyergal.bsky.social•10 days ago

That is a very clear and concise way of putting what I have been thinking for a long time into words!

nataskrad.bsky.social•10 days ago

Duh, because if he actually represented or advocated for one person other than himself (let alone millions) he'd fill his diaper.

grandmabarbara.bsky.social•10 days ago

Of course he isn't worried.He doesn't know where those countries are.

merlnich1.bsky.social•10 days ago

Why in the world is anybody asking him anything? I would get more articulate and pertinent answers from a squirrel in my backyard.

grimalkinwyrd.bsky.social•10 days ago

Better question why isn't the unversal congressional support for his removal from office? He's clearly a danger to us all.

sfaccountant.bsky.social•10 days ago

He's the President. It really, really sucks that this is the case but these are necessary questions that people should be asking the President and it's a little late for the press to throw up their arms and say "this guy is too stupid to bother with this."

1republic14star.bsky.social•10 days ago

Trump thinks only of ME, ME, ME, I, I, I, ME, ME, ME, so this checks out.

judyhasthoughts.bsky.social•10 days ago

He has his I Am Competent Smirk on, to hide the fact that he is a complete fool who has no idea what's happening. Watch for it

jakeup.bsky.social•10 days ago

He's so remarkably dumb

retinco.bsky.social•10 days ago

He doesn't worry about anything. He doesn't know about anything. He takes no responsibility for anything. What is he doing in the office of the Presidency other than enriching himself and destroying this country?

readingwarrior.bsky.social•10 days ago

What [him] worry?

trishly.bsky.social•10 days ago

he doesn't worry because he doesn't care.
he can't make money from Norway and Finland until after putin attacks.

stiffelman.bsky.social•10 days ago

He’s incapable of thinking outside his immediate pleasure box.

thinxdinx.bsky.social•10 days ago

dpdiver.bsky.social•10 days ago

If you don't get/listen to intelligence briefings, it's easy not to be concerned about concerning geopolitical developments.

grimalkinwyrd.bsky.social•10 days ago

If he did listen he wouldn't understand them... he's dumber than a pile of shit and more useless than *thinks* well, he totally useless.

tchrgrrrl.bsky.social•10 days ago

He identifies with his businesses. He *is* the gov't. So yes, it's all personal--there is no other level for Trump.

suasponte2023.bsky.social•10 days ago

I bet dimes to donuts that if a journalist phrased the question as, "What's the official US policy on troop movements?" he would answer, "I dunno," for the exact same reason you cited.

Well spotted!

slingkong.bsky.social•10 days ago

I don’t know but I have the best generals working for me and they say that we gotta have Greenland for safety

jonsalvia.bsky.social•10 days ago

President Alfred E. Neuman

lukewanderer.bsky.social•10 days ago

Should reporters ask "Is the US concerned..."?

debraginsberg.bsky.social•10 days ago

Very safe those countries just like we have the respect all over the world when I came here eggs they said take a look at it groceries, a very old fashioned word but it means things you put in a bag...
