So, here's one interesting angle:

How can this be an important foreign diplomatic matter if the president doesn't know shit about it?

Reposted from Anna Bower

Trump didn’t seem to be familiar with the details of Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s case or the Supreme Court’s decision.

“I’m not totally well-versed as to the specific case. If they said to bring him back, I would tell them to bring him back,” Trump continued.

That's the whole plot! He created the case and knows everything about it. Especially how much focus there is on it in the media. After several weeks, he now plays dumb and can suddenly fix it. Ergo, the liar ends up as the great savior.

Oh. I know, I know. Because he's 78 years old and has largely delegated his responsibilities as president to flatters and ideologues. What do I win? Oh.

It's a grave national security matter according to the President, i.e. "Marco Rubio," a puppet crudely manipulated by Stephen Miller

We are again hitting the baseline of Trump 1, i.e. we don't have a president except to the extent that he notices something on the TV or someone hands him a notecard

I agree with this mostly, but I think there has been a nosedive in the number of instances where the president can even remember what he heard on the TV.

If these guys were really trying to brief him, they would have created a reality show. Video, not text

colinaut.bsky.social•2 days ago

They would have to hire Fox talking heads and make it a show that is all about great he is. Then maybe he would pay attention.

Wasn't there an informal rule that if you wanted to have Trump pay attention to you, there needed to be a young woman (preferably blond) in the room.

This is literally a joke in the Simpsons movie where the president doesn’t wanna read more than 2 possible solutions

But, crucially, and bad for all of us, there’s nobody trying to distract him any more and make him do slightly less evil things.

Miller/Rubio/Bondi/Noem are freelancing this shit and they’ve cleared out everyone who could tell them they are fucking up

If we start making a list of ‘important things the president doesn’t know shit about’ we are going to be here a long time. And foreign diplomatic matters are a long way down that list.

Yes, they can lie, and get caught in the lies, and it still doesn't matter.

The speed at which Agent Orange switches from "I know more about everything than anyone else in history" to "I know nothing about that" exceeds the speed of light.

Wait isn’t the DOJ lawyer arguing that it’s unreasonable to meet court deadlines because this case involves three different cabinet departments? And the guy who will take the time to trash out individual protesters somehow isn’t across this case?

Because Stephen Miller is running the country.
