I'm not doing this. He's going to say a thousand insane things every day and I'm either not taking them seriously enough or taking them too seriously so I'm just not taking them period. Let me know if my number's called up and I'll see you in Nuuk

same here. I was just thinking, well, another 4 yrs of flipping on the tv long enough to see what the SOB has screwed up today, then turning it off and doing something productive.
My sentiment exactly. He's really no different than before, and will make even less sense. His tired schtick is all he has. Nothing new, definitely nothing that will help the American people. Just a common grifter with the charm of a teenager's socks.
He is just doing the usual “look there” “don’t look here” mantra and don’t fall for it as his plans will unravel and he will increasingly resort to these diversion tactics.
Agreed! His one hour press conference full of INSANE ideas. I don’t know. Feels different this time. Hopefully, his kingdom crumbles quickly! We’ll finally see who the crooks & cowards are in the GQP😏
I'm not watching him make diarrhea sounds from the hole on his face. I'm just not. I'll be paying attention to what our congress members are actually doing because most of the insane crap he's spewing isn't even in his power to do. Not even with this shitty Supreme Court.
I’ve tried to take a break or at least limit my news and social media intake since the election. The sense of dread that we’ve finally lost and that we’re just along for the ride until some historical moment resets our trajectory has not diminished. So, smoke em of you got em, I guess.
Troll. And the oligarch-owned media are profiting from the anger. My tactic, as with all trolls... Say it with me, esp. those in the back... DO NOT FEED THE TROLLS. Looking at you NYT.
Turn off mainstream news, like completely. Limit social media intake. Connect with like minded people, emotionally take a rest and break. Only so much is in your control, focus on the power you do have but make sure you’re grounded first. If you let them wear you down, they win.
Same. I'm not listening to the stream of consciousness pouring out of his mouth. I don't care. He says all kinds of stuff. Talk to me when things actually happen, and then only when it really is a big deal not just offensive. I have better things to do.
I couldn't stand his voice so I tried reading transcripts of his speeches instead to stay caught up. It read like a stuttering 4th grader was trying to tell you a story and kept getting distracted by other things.
Haha, honestly, that sounds like the healthiest approach. Keeping up with the chaos feels like an Olympic sport no one signed up for. Nuuk’s probably got the right idea—quiet, cold, and far from the noise. Let me know if there’s room for one more!
It's exhausting. But it's all diversion and distraction, intended to draw attention away from the oligarchy of billionaires he's setting up, and so people forget he promised he'd lower their grocery and gas prices, and fix all their problems.
Please don't disengage. Find a way to stay engaged ... and stay healthy. We need you. Don't abandoned us. But ... take care of yourself first ... above all else.
Feeling overwhelmed. A lot of that about lately. We need to prop people up until they can get their sea legs under them & go on to help others. They'll be alright. Everyone has their weak moments. This is about to get ugly. It will test the stamina of our strongest, don't judge, help.
I think that is his game plan. Say so much crazy shit that people stop responding to it and even paying attention. Then, whatever he does, he can claim it was with the public's approval. They never complained!
It is, and always was. Thus the invention of personas to cross-talk about him, John Baron and John Miller, I think?
“Throw it all at the wall and see what sticks” is a life-long philosophy for trump. So “firehose of falsehoods” is 100% in his wheelhouse, it’s just rebranding at best
I hear you, but all I can think of is this quote I learned in Spanish: <> or “when the shrimp sleeps, it gets carried away by the current.” The distraction tactics are meant to wear you down! Come up with a way to stay vigilant. We can and must.
That’s a great point but when we can’t do anything about it, I’d hard to want to pay attention. He’s above the law and it’s been proven time and time again
We can do something about it. We have this platform comprised of like minded individuals. We have to find a better way of utilizing this platform to become more organized. Think about what they accomplished during the Civil Rights era. And they did that without the internet.
100% Gillian. Just ignore the nonsense and go about your business. Responding (positively or negatively) just feeds the beast. A lot of the outrageous stuff coming forth will not survive the 50/50 Congress and/or judicial review, and will blow over. Blowhards will blow hard.
You should take the threats somewhat seriously. The VPE is accelerating this conflict so he can make a deal to open a US Consulate in Nuuk, adhering to the Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025, page 190:
Yep, this is just distraction nonsense for his idiot supporters and the democratic pundits to clutch pearls over. It’s stupidity and won’t go anywhere and will be forgotten the next time he says something idiotic.
Just going to ignore him
and his presidency. If he presses that button I’ll be evaporated anyway. He was so incompetent the last time around let’s hope for more vacuous nonsense
I don't want to see or hear any of his attention seeking crap. He does it for attention and we feed that giant troll every time we share a clip of him. Ignore the turds he tosses out
We should keep one ear on the chatter, but both eyes on the movements of the government and its branches. He's going to talk game while pulling a fast one if we're not watchful. Don't take your eye away, or he and his will steal all that's ours.
What I worry about is that he says this insanity as diversion to some other seriously dangerous stuff, you know like the vetting of the lunatics he wants for his cabinet.
Yeah, I've already told my spouse who insists on following political news to let me know if I need to get my passport out and pack my stuff, but otherwise I'm just going to... not.
I’m actually a bit north of Canada, from my exact vantage 🙃
Big chunks of the War of 1812 were fought here, and The Underground Railroad had multiple stations and stops. Just dip into the icy Niagara…
I bet it’s lovely, never been but an old mate immigrated to Canada to be a long distance truck driver. He often sends me pics from inside his cab, -25c and tells me to stop whinging about the cold 🤪🥶
It’s a beautiful place. But -25c isn’t even that cold, so he must not be too far north 🙃
Long haul truckers do have plenty of space to roam over here, for sure
I said this years ago and again months ago. I sure was right after the election anyone freaking out fully since then about his diahreea mouth is about as dumb as he is...why the bleep would I listen to the words spewing out of a pathological self serving liar who isn't paying attention himself.
Know your own truth and stick to it. Don’t react to the thousand provocations every hour, instead call the strategy out for what it is and make sure an alternative world survives the unprecedented onslaught to come.
Agree, why did we elect a convicted felon & sex abuser to be president?
There tens of millions of dumbass rubes that will be the people that the Orange Turd will hurt the most.
Yes!!! This is the exact way to address his trolling, because that's all it is. You need to focus on what he's not talking about. That's what's important. I gonne unfollowed everyone but you. 😁
With you. Will not repeat the stupidity of his first term. He’s important but still not that important. Will not listen to him. And will stop following pundits who go into hysterics every time he speaks. We pay our elected reps to manage his crap. They can do their jobs.
I now watch Netflix and Paramount +
.. the news just keeps on showing his every day life and moves and words .. so l just listen to the weather forecast and either mute my TV or change the channel
Yup. The crazy shit that was said today was a distraction for the Smith report and Cannon’s illegal ruling. Greenland, Canada, Panama, the Gulf of America?!?!
It’s all crazy bs to distract from accountability.
Take to the streets. Stop buying shit. Both physical, and out of his Assmouth.
Apart from -everything- else horrible about this "person" I most absolutely, totally, emphatically hate his ultra irritating voice and imbecile/brain damaged rambling vocal diarrhea. So I am going to avoid, avoid, avoid. (Dive, dive dive!)
Agree. Are there any journalists out there who know how to cover this garbage? I don't need to know about the 10 insane things in the discourse, just the one that actually made it to policy
Keep in mind we are being groomed to allow Putin to absorb Ukraine. Rationalizing America “taking back” the Panama Canal and buying Greenland for “national security.” He is paving the way for Putin.

Start at 6:17 and watch until the end. Don’t give up.
But let me give him the benefit of the doubt too
so lets get organized @teamaoc.bsky.social
But we also all know that’s the plan
- Repeat the lies til they become the truth
- Overwhelm us with a new crisis every day
- Ban the books so we forget this has happened before
The pendulum is swinging
But rest, recharge, and rebel
Please don’t obey in advance
No matter how crazy the world gets, he seems to make it funny and palatable.
But otherwise, I don't blame you for wanting to tune out. This shit is depressing.
From here on out, it’s legitimate action or I don’t give a fuck
Giving up is not healthy being the point.
?????
K?
It doesn't mean 'has given up'.
It just means not allowing oneself to be a puppet/have one's strings yanked minute to minute. 🤷🏼
“Throw it all at the wall and see what sticks” is a life-long philosophy for trump. So “firehose of falsehoods” is 100% in his wheelhouse, it’s just rebranding at best
Let him do his worst, he will.
But we have to prepare to meet him with our best.
All of his lies are just a distraction from his insecurity and actual lack of power.
Nobody on his side gives a shit about Friday
The media made this bed. They can lie in it and rot along with him.
I refuse to be involved.
I don’t want to hear shit about his bloated deranged ass unless he croaks TF out
and his presidency. If he presses that button I’ll be evaporated anyway. He was so incompetent the last time around let’s hope for more vacuous nonsense
America, what have you done? 🤦♂️
ohhhh, you knowww, a wee fascism. I’m really near Canada and feel compelled to say “sorry!”
My advice? Move north 😊👍

And the media needs to stop giving the Musk stories any oxygen.

I wish I'd said that
