    You would have to be pretty naive (and possibly a newborn) to get stunned by anything that pathological liar says.

      1-Too rough?! That psychopath deported dozens of united state citizens to salvador for their skin color! Majority are still there.

      2-His love of the village people and his long and intimate relationship with Roy Cohn (closeted) is why I believe Trump is most probably a gay narcissist who prefers to hide it and marry a playboy model he’s unattracted to, to silence rumors, just like kevin spacey until he got outed.

    First of all, no reason to believe a single word this narcisistic dementia turd has to say.

    In some cases, paying taxes

    THEY ALL FUCKING PAY TAXES. What they DON’T do is get most of the BENEFITS of those taxes.

    they’re working in a landscaping company, or working in a hotel

    He’s just pissed because he likes to use underpaid immigrants at his hotels and golf courses.

    He going to offer less obvious torture as his compromise. When rejected, he’ll cry about it then double down on the worst parts.

    I bet his McDonald’s order was late that day and he asked why and someone was like the immigrants are afraid to show up for to work or something. Like just before he went on camera. Something like that.

      My read is that he’s desperate. He’s aware of how badly the GOP lost and why, and is worried enough senators will flip that they can convict on impeachment. He’s trying to show he’s willing to cooperate with dems as long as they don’t make him, you know, die in prison in shame. He’s had all the power for two years and he’s used it like a toddler uses a bowl of crackers, slaming it around and making a mess until he gets what he wants - but now mom’s mad and he’s realizing that the US isn’t nearly as much of a fascist state as he lead his followers to think.

        He’s grieving, and flipping between the Anger and Bargaining stages. He’s already tried denial but was laughed at, though Pee Wee Himmler still tries the “Trump is more popular than ever” line to kiss his ass.

    Trump almost seems like the type that would flip his principles in a heartbeat if he personally felt that he’d look more popular because of it. Given their whole shtick fell so hard now in 2026 I wouldn’t be surprised if he starts trying to spin being “for” some more popular issues.

    Although he cares about personal enrichment over perceived popularity as well. So who knows what happens next.

      if by “look more popular” you mean “be less likely to die in prison after an espionage conviction”, then yes, I agree with you.

        Personally I could see him passing Medicare for all of a single payer system if his ego was stroked right. Fun fact I hate egotism so much this is legit a borderline foreign concept to me, the only reason I know its possible is because he is so egotistical that I legit can’t assume any other reasoning besides avarice and greed.

        I mean realistically it’s pretty likely anything longer than a three year sentence would have him die in prison.
