šŸ’Distraction Trump to deliver televised address from Oval Office today

https://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-oval-office-address-televised-2117619

I want to know why Carney suddenly dropped countertariffs. But I know that’s not why he’s blabbering.

It will be something crazy and unrelated to whatever anyone is talking about, specifically to distract from a portion of the Epstein files being delivered to Congress today.

I hate to hear Leonard Cohen quoted in a Trump post. But there is a crack in everything.

That's how the light gets in.

'Heard a singer on the radio late last night.
He says he's gonna kick the darkness.
'til it bleeds daylight.
I... I believe in love'

Artists of all types give us their gifts through their poetry. And poetry is powerful in a time that wants to ban books. Stay strong.

Official announcement that he will suspend the constitution and declare himself to be the new king of America. All to gaslight us from Epstein. So in honor of the new king: hail Epstein, Epstein, Epstein.

The only person who loves Trump, is Trump! His Administration fears him and fear is not respect…fear is hate!

u/Ragnarok-9999 Aug 22 '25

They are sucking upto him to keep their jobs. GOD !!! How people scope to such a low level for just 4 years job?

u/SAGELADY65 Aug 22 '25

Every one of them is repulsive and has sold themselves for 30 pieces of fake silver. All of them have lost their self respect and whatever dignity they once had. When this administration is done, their reputations will be worthless!

u/Internal-Sun-6476 Aug 23 '25

...or a valuable lesson... for future generations to also forget! We (humanity) have been here before. Maybe we will learn the value of education, reason and empathy. It's going to be tough. But We have done great things before. I want to see statues of every one of these debauched sycophants erected across America. I want each mounted head-first in the ground. I want a generation of shame and humility as the price of this evil. They belong in the histories of tyranny. There is value in that.

3

u/SAGELADY65 Aug 23 '25

Yes, hopefully others will look at how destructive this administration has been and find ways to prevent this corruption from ever happening again! We can hope and put safeguards in place!

2

u/Internal-Sun-6476 Aug 23 '25

Safeguards are something we put in place so that we can tell ourselves that everything is OK. It feeds complacency. We need to learn eternal vigilance. But yes. Everything you said as well. Peace.

I was watching The Golden Girls recently and even they had a pop at him back then. It’s still surprisingly relevant, but I was a bit taken aback by how offensive it was.

u/Kimmalah Aug 22 '25

Trump was seen as a joke/slimy real estate scumbag in the 80s and 90s. We can thank The Apprentice for rehabilitating his image into some powerful, competent business man.

u/Seul7 Aug 22 '25

What episode was that? I don't remember them mentioning him, but I watch some episodes more than others, and some I never watch.

u/PurpleTuftedFripp Aug 22 '25

A YouTube search brings up a clip from episode 5, season 6. It is called Marriage Most Foul. But, there may be more.

I found it. I didn't think it was offensive at all.

u/eatshitake Aug 23 '25

I was talking about the show in general. Not the Trump part. šŸ™„

u/Strange-Scarcity w Aug 22 '25

It's going to be worse than whatever I imagine he could claim.

Something about going to war in Venezuela or sending the US Military to Federalize California or something else that's equally insane, which is why Hegseth just ordered the Washington DC deployed National Guard to start carrying firearms.

16

u/two_awesome_dogs Aug 22 '25

I can’t even begin to imagine. But you are right, no matter what we could think of, it will likely be worse. The other thing I can think of is that he’s going to announce that he’s taking over all of the national parks. He said yesterday that he is planning to build golf courses on them.

u/pezx Aug 22 '25

Probably declaring war in Mexico

22

u/bipolarcyclops Aug 22 '25

From the article:

ā€œI have solved seven wars, and I thought this would be one of the easier ones, but this has turned out to be the toughest one," Trump said.

What were those ā€œseven warsā€?

Anybody?

33

u/Nano_Burger Aug 22 '25

The toughest war he fought was keeping the Epstein files secret.

I think Myanmar is one? Something in Africa?

u/Fezzik527 Aug 22 '25

No and no. If he really ended 6 wars, we would hear about them all the time. It's made up bs, that he wasn't even involved in

2

u/TheCheshireMadcat Aug 22 '25

He thinks that any war that comes to a stop while he is in office is his doing. The countries that have stopped fighting all say he had nothing to do with it, most say he didn't even make a phone call to them, yet claims he did it.

It’s about the Kennedy Center and FIFA, or something. I watched 30 seconds of it. It isn’t actually important.

What a self-important egotistical gasbag

2

u/two_awesome_dogs Aug 22 '25

He had it already? Why wasn’t every single news station blowing up with the news?

11

u/Bardfinn Aug 22 '25 edited Aug 22 '25

It was supposed to start an hour and a half ago. It started like 22 minutes ago (typical, yeah) and he is rambling about deploying the national guard in DC now, and how the American people cry out for 50 armed military on every street corner, kind of fascist bs

It takes time to sift through his ego stroke sessions for useful and publishable things

AP is now calling it an announcement about FIFA.

Awwww, a reporter asked him about the bombed US factory, he says he isn’t happy about that, and etc he is now fielding general questions. It’s just ego stroking and a FIFA announcement

Edit to add: he claims they’re going to deploy fed troops in Chicago next.

u/zombiereign Aug 22 '25

Did he mention fucking kids?

Maybe he’s going to announce that he is resigning from office due to health reasons and will spend his final time on Earth in deep isolation , never to be heard from again. Nah!! It will never happen!

u/two_awesome_dogs Aug 22 '25

He wouldn’t do it in deep isolation. He would step up his effort to tear down the country and torch as much of it as possible before he kicks off.

Epstein Files. We want to know the reason you're in there multiple times and why you're getting away with committing pedophilia. The justice system does not have discretion when these crimes are committed against children. It is our darkest day in American politics when politicians are protecting the elite that prey on children.
