The stupidest people make excuses for the most incompetent people.

To wit

Comments

When an honest person is confronted with an inconvenient fact, they change their opinion.

When a dishonest person does, they deny the fact.

This administration is NOT competent, they are in-fact MORONS. Trump doesn't want competence, he wants loyalty.

Dude, which would you say was his most competent act: raping women, cheating on women, being drunk on the job, or drunk in uniform?

goldring.bsky.social•3 days ago

Sect mentality

chris-lansdown.bsky.social•3 days ago

100% Trump fucked up . Just add it to his 34 fellons and 6 bankruptcies.

jhface.bsky.social•3 days ago

Joey sounds confused.

jimcashel.bsky.social•3 days ago

So predictable:

1) We didn’t do it.
2) OK we did do it - so what?
3) OK we did it on purpose - brilliant!

jonreilly1313.bsky.social•3 days ago

Every damn time.

wolfiezero.bsky.social•3 days ago

if a politician you love never makes mistakes in your eyes, even when the evidence is all around you, you're a cult member.

thetomfrank.bsky.social•3 days ago

I really wish Joey would just run off and marry Ryan Walters the education chief from Oklahoma. They are both so singularly devoted to licking Trump’s butt until their tongues fall off and I think they could be very happy together.

Hear that Mike, it's called Media Strategy and he's famous for it. More of that 11D chess I've heard so much about. But I heard they were going to put him on the -$250 bill so there's still hope.

e6pete.bsky.social•3 days ago

So Waltz says Signal is secure but then the clowns attack the journalist for “somehow” managing to get into the group chat. Can’t be secure then can it genius?

That is some epic-strength Kool-Aid they be drinkin'.

bizfox.bsky.social•3 days ago

Maga falls for this horseshit every time because they desperately want to believe their dear leader(s) are brill but in fact they are nincompoops. Unfortunately, stupid people are dangerous.

wtf is a "Joey Mannarino"?

Why we need a laugh emoji.

shoulderdevil.bsky.social•3 days ago

I somehow doubt sharing extremely classified intel and a literal live view of military planning for an upcoming strike was a "media strategy."

No sane or competent person would risk telling the enemy exactly what they're about to do by inviting a member of the media.

noahgift.bsky.social•3 days ago

Sounds like a guy arguing that log function is exponential
because "he feels it".

mulvihill.bsky.social•3 days ago

Feels like they’re struggling to hold on to the illusion.

whosagrumpybear.bsky.social•3 days ago

If the stupid people, that think the people they worship are competent, actually had to admit that their heroes were incompetent, it would highlight their own stupidity to such a degree that they would shame spiral into a fetal position gorging cake icing & crying into a faded copy of The Federalist

bumper-21956.bsky.social•3 days ago

Hey Joey

In your second paragraph you made one mistake the word should be spelled “incompetent.”

Period

chingatudrumpf.bsky.social•1 day ago

They’re not even good liars! Then again, ignorant racists never are.

harrison-bergeron.bsky.social•3 days ago

If I didn't know better I would have thought he was being sarcastic.

snickeringdolphin.bsky.social•3 days ago

AA calls this “enabling”, and it’s common in families where there’s addiction and codependency. Members make outrageous excuses for unacceptable behavior. Enabling exists in organizations too, especially cults.

bonnyresister.bsky.social•2 days ago

Oy Vey!

john-schroeder.bsky.social•3 days ago

So 1 of 2 things must be true: 1) they were using a wildly insecure app/platform that a JOURNALIST (not a state actor/hacker) could hack into or 2) they were using a specifically disallowed platform & process that allowed someone to invite a journalist into their chat. Specific DOD memo on this.

pnwwestcoast.bsky.social•3 days ago

I spit my food out when I read the second paragraph.

Grown-ass man going by “Joey.”

redhead2255.bsky.social•3 days ago

Joey they DID.

coreymutter.bsky.social•3 days ago

Well that was Goldberg's first guess to be honest. Not that they were competent, but that they were playing him.

politicalpotter.bsky.social•3 days ago

So the next thing to ask is “if it’s not secure and a journalist could hack into and join the group, why are they using it?”

frankehen.bsky.social•3 days ago

Jesus Christ they will never learn. It's a Trump media strategy???FFS

damntam.bsky.social•3 days ago

I say let the conspiracy theories flourish and see what it does to its insides 🤷🏼‍♀️

darkglade.bsky.social•3 days ago

ROFL...

This is after the NSC has CONFIRMED IN WRITING that that is precisely what happened.

These people are not fucking remotely competent.

sverre-auestad.bsky.social•3 days ago

"competent"?

sverre-auestad.bsky.social•3 days ago

I'm not saying they have room-temperature IQs, but I wouldn't allow them to handle sharp objects.

mollagus.bsky.social•3 days ago

Everything is a conspiracy except for the ones they believe.

phoutz.bsky.social•3 days ago

Setting aside “the most competent people” part, I struggle to understand how you *accidentally* add Goldberg to this convo. Is it easy to do, like Reply All…or does it take some special talent? It sounds more like whistleblowing, though that would imply a level of competence.

internationaljesse.bsky.social•3 days ago

“Competent people”… such amazing accomplishments! Fucktards.

parkesy.bsky.social•3 days ago

Joey is real close to getting it. So close yet so far.

sfjulio415.bsky.social•3 days ago

Shit I don’t when know who Mike waltz is but I know he’s not Mike Walz

golfingjourney.bsky.social•3 days ago

Saving this for next time someone asks how did we get here. Will show this fucking idiot as exhibit A.

zeldaqueen.bsky.social•3 days ago

I mean, Trump is indeed famous for "this". It's just that "this" is indeed "gross incompetence".

fairecomments.bsky.social•3 days ago

So much of this administration is Through the Looking Glass. This one is not actually as bad as Elon touting the Babylon Bee story that the leak was planned by Trump as a 5D chess move & Trump reposting Elon's post.

xvf17.bsky.social•3 days ago

This argument entirely misses the point. They were having this conversation on Signal. Illegally. Who was included, intentionally or accidentally, is a distant second in terms of importance.

jjgass.bsky.social•3 days ago

“These guys are so smart that they must have had the mens rea for all the federal crimes they committed”

fargascollection.bsky.social•3 days ago

Oh, honey, no. Not the most competent.

andyroz.bsky.social•3 days ago

Walz said on TV that he accidentality added Goldberg to the chat.

deborah-c.bsky.social•3 days ago

Waltz did. Governor Walz was elsewhere, being *actually* competent.

andyroz.bsky.social•3 days ago

Yeh ... I copied the misspelling to complete the circle.

jbwoodford.bsky.social•3 days ago

And no one else in the group noticed when the "Walz has added Goldberg to the chat" message popped up. Right on top of things, they are.

morselya.bsky.social•3 days ago

Yeah, I'm just giggling (well, more like smirking) at the notion that this is competence.

freedomforall.net•3 days ago

Hegseth competent 🤣

lizardky.bsky.social•3 days ago

In what world are any of those people “competent”?

midnightplat.bsky.social•3 days ago

The same world where people think the administration is saving us from some "carnage" brought on by immigration and antifa, but I don't have a precise metric on who those people are and how they managed to live long enough vote.

emarbach.bsky.social•3 days ago

The biggest security breach that we know about and they will explain it away and MAGA will nod and accept and Rupert Murdouch will rake in the money off the backs of the lies these people will say to defend their incompetence.

gigithehun.bsky.social•2 days ago

He already admitted it.

mhawkinson.bsky.social•3 days ago

Part of me feels inclined to believe it. The way they just rattle off talking points about Europe to each other. I don't believe for a second they actually talk like that behind closed doors but I do think they want others to think that. Their threats against Europe aren't sticking and it

mhawkinson.bsky.social•3 days ago

could be being used as a "leak" to show them how "serious" they are. The plans themselves are irrelevant for what they want to show

Wow. Just wow. 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

Wow, that's such a genius strategy and the unbelievable success is out of their minds.

richph.bsky.social•3 days ago

"these are some of the most competent people in the country" is an interesting statement. It is either true or false, and in either case our country is in trouble.
