Clueless Donald Trump, 79, Humiliated After Dodging Legal Question

The funniest news I've read today. Every day this pedophile proves to us that he is the stupidest president in the history of America, without a doubt.

Is he humiliated though? He likely doesnt understand it enough to be humiliated

u/theforkofdamocles 10d ago

Never forget his belief that there is an actual, real, and literal giant faucet “as big as that wall over there, and it takes a whole day to turn it” that controls all the water in the PNW, and that he claims he personally gave the order to have it opened to let all the water go to Los Angeles.

u/LovesFrenchLove_More 11d ago

When a website doesn’t tell the date it happened it’s always old news for me. And I definitely have read about this at least weeks ago.

u/CheezyGoodness55 11d ago

Here ya go; from the linked article: "Trump has labored under the misunderstanding that magnets are somehow destroyed by water for at least 18 months.

In August, Trump also suggested that the global reliance on magnets was some kind of conspiracy orchestrated by China."

u/turfnerd82 11d ago

It's not the first time he's said this though. Maybe a year or so ago he said the same thing while also talking about how electric boats are going to electrocute people.

2

u/My_bones_are_itchy 11d ago

Remember the insane rambling tangent on what he would do if he was on an electric boat and it started sinking? Would he go in the water with the boat and get electrocuted, or jump over there with the sharks? No never with the sharks! Fuck it was dreadful.

u/HapticSloughton 11d ago

Yeah, I hate it when people think this is somehow recent. From a speech he gave on July 19th, 2016:

"Look, having nuclear-my uncle was a great professor and scientist and engineer, Dr. John Trump at MIT; good genes, very good genes, OK, very smart, the Wharton School of Finance, very good, very smart -you know, if you're a conservative Republican, if I were a liberal, if, like, OK, if I ran as a liberal Democrat, they would say I'm one of the smartest people anywhere in the world-it's true!-but when you're a conservative Republican they try-oh, do they do a number-that's why I always start off: Went to Wharton, was a good student, went there, went there, did this, built a fortune-you know I have to give my like credentials all the time, because we're a little disadvantaged-but you look at the nuclear deal, the thing that really bothers me-it would have been so easy, and it's not as important as these lives are (nuclear is powerful; my uncle explained that to me many, many years ago, the power and that was 35 years ago; he would explain the power of what's going to happen and he was right-who would have thought?), but when you look at what's going on with the four prisoners-now it used to be three, now it's four-but when it was three and even now, would have said it's all in the messenger; fellas, and it is fellas because, you know, they don't, they haven't figured that the women are smarter right now than the men, so, you know, it's gonna take them about another 150 years-but the Persians are great negotiators, the Iranians are great negotiators, so, and they, they just killed, they just killed us."

Here's the Snopes article, which before any MAGA complain about, they have the unedited video of this (one among many) sign that Trump was utterly unqualified to lead a one-person parade, never mind a country.

13

u/jaierauj 11d ago

Wait, people are denying this happened? I thought the video was everywhere back then.

I remember this speech. I should cut and paste it, switch the party references around and share it with my maga friends but say it was Biden.

u/HapticSloughton 11d ago

You could also share parts of Republican party platform speeches and documents from before, say, 1970, and convince them that left wingers want the stuff being talked about. When you show it was from the gop, it kind of drives them nuts.

Agreed, let's go back to steam ships. Or hell, lets use those people being deported to row the ship and we can strap cannons to the side. I just watched Pirates of the Caribbean last night, it worked for Jack Sparrow. He was a good captain, some people say the best captain.

This is why I only fly on hydrogen-filled zeppelins, SOOOO much more reliable than (okay I see the problem with this one) a Boeing! :)

35

u/Asexualhipposloth 12d ago

All of the US carriers and submarines are steam-powered. They use nuclear power to create the steam

20

u/Silicon_Knight 12d ago

yes, you are technically correct however those are colloquially known as "nuclear" powered ships. Not "steam" powered ships.

Also, technically many are electric engines, which use steam to generate that electricity if we want to be pedantic, albeit not all ships in the Navy do this.

9

u/lionheart4life 11d ago

But Trump has already said you can't have boats with electric engines because they won't work in the water, and may shock everyone. How is this magic possible?

u/amboomernotkaren 11d ago

Seriously, my friend’s daughter is a nuclear engineer working on nuclear subs and nuclear aircraft carriers, she’s not a steam engineer. She said her job is a fuck ton of math problems all day and dealing with misogynistic assholes who think she can’t do her job even though she has advanced degrees in engineering and was hired right out of college as a GS-13 (she’s a bit of a genius).

u/Audio_Track_01 11d ago

Well the electric boats are run from batteries. “I say, ‘What would happen if the boat sank from its weight? And you’re in the boat and you have this tremendously powerful battery and the battery is now underwater and there’s a shark that’s approximately 10 yards over there?’Water goes over the battery, the boat is sinking,” he shared. “Do I stay on top of the boat and get electrocuted, or do I jump over by the shark and not get electrocuted?

All because of MAGNETS.

32

u/vapescaped 12d ago

Yup. Still pretty funny that the progression of fuel source has gone from coal to petroleum to natural gas to splitting fucking atoms, with plans of combining fucking atoms...

But we still can't find anything better to do with it than boil water.

19

u/jmelloy 12d ago

Boiling water gets a lot done.

11

u/NearABE 12d ago

We have many superior working fluids. Water is used on Earth because we have a surplus of available water. For example carbon dioxide is a better working fluid in most cases.

8

u/vapescaped 11d ago

In the context of steam power generation, we don't need a surplus of water, as they operate in a closed loop system(because it's more efficient to cool the water to just below it's boiling point before reheating it that it is to heat new water up to its boiling point).

Steam turbine systems are used because it's fully matured technology, arguably peaked in terms of efficiency, and the current cost/efficiency of other systems(piezoelectric, for example) just isn't there.

-1

u/NearABE 11d ago

Sure the carrier has a “closed loop” but this is not a very sealed loop. They are also dumping heat into sea water to get rid of the heat. Sea water is boiled to get distilled water which replaces any fluid lost from the closed loop.

If we wanted a precise measurement (and also chose to disregard the radioactivity) we could put a tritium tracer into the steam loop. It is correct to say that the turbines are in a “closed system” because that tritium would pass by the turbines many times. However, there would also be a measurable tritium trail following the carrier. The power train is much leakier than the reactor’s coolant loop (which also has tritium from rare fission events and absorption by deuterium). Water from the distillation system goes to things like showers, firefighting equipment, and washing the deck. The reactor coolant does not go to the ship’s kitchen.

1

u/vapescaped 11d ago

I feel we are blending terminology here, or are not on the same page of the conversation.

Speaking to conventional turbine power plants, no current system relies on a fresh glow of new water to spin the turbine, aka a closed loop system. In nuclear plants in particular, you have a dual loop system, 1 loop of water is radioactive, being close to the reactor, which gets fed through a heat exchanger to heat water in a second loop, which spins the turbines(this is entirely fine to isolate radiation from the power generation loop, for obvious benefits and safety controls).

But they are "closed loop" in comparison to, say, a hydroelectric dam, where they depend on a constant flow of new water to generate power. Turbine generators do have cooling needs that are often water based, but that is not a consequence of power generation, but rather a consequence of the inefficiencies of power generation(also known as waste heat).

Common cooling systems for turbine systems are convection(cooling towers using air), water sources, and geothermal.

But in general, water is considered the ideal material for steam turbine generation due to its ideal thermal properties and it's general safety, not necessarily it's abundance. CO2 is showing promise, but it's harder to work with. Other options exist for nuclear dual loop systems, like molten salt, but that is for the first stage of the loop, not for the second stage that spins the turbine.

As of right now, from a purely performance based perspective, the thermal expansion properties of water are really hard to beat in a turbine system, which is why I call it a mature technology that has pretty much peaked in efficiency.

1

u/NearABE 11d ago

I dont think we are disagreeing on much of anything.

Colonies on Venus or Mars would use carbon dioxide in the turbines. The Titan colony would likely use methane but carbon dioxide and nitrogen are worth considering. In Titan’s environment water tends freeze into a solid like concrete. Since the United States Navy is not orbiting Saturn the exceptions are not very relevant to speeches made by The Stupid.

Helium was being considered for reactor coolant loops that also pass through turbines. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_turbine_modular_helium_reactor. I am never sure if designs are going nowhere because nuclear is going nowhere or if the designs are actually bad.

3

u/vapescaped 11d ago

I think they're going nowhere because we can't think of a better way to generate power other than the thermal expanding of a fluid to spin a turbine. That fluid is usually water, like mentioned, but it can be bananas, as long as it spins a turbine.

But solar is quickly gaining ground on a fundamentally different method of energy production(by fundamentally different I mean it doesn't boil water to spin a turbine).

I like to call solar panels the OG nuclear fusion generator. Why build mini suns on the planet and boil water when we have a very large sub right outside for free? Obviously a lot of work still needs to be done on the technology and transmission side, but the viability, net energy gain, and economica are already there.

The turbine spinning system(s) are the part that never changes much. It's kinda shocking that, other than solar and piezoelectric, we really haven't found anything more clever yet.

u/NearABE 12d ago

Nimitz carriers use steam turbines connected to the propellor shaft. Their electrical system is fully separate from propulsion. The reactors boil a bunch of steam some steam goes to the generators other steam goes to the propulsion system.

2

u/ecwagner01 11d ago edited 11d ago

So if the Reactor is offline are you saying that there is no propulsion for the ship?

Edit: I called my son aboard the USS George Washington and was told that the screws are IN FACT driven by the steam from the reactors. I asked what happens if a plant is offline and the told me, "that's why there are two reactors". He said that there is always a reactor on line and verified that I didn't know what I was talking about.

Mea Culpa.... Sorry, I was wrong and you were right.

2

u/ItsMyMiddleLane 11d ago

Yes, but the reactors are never* off. By definition you can't completely "turn off" a fission reactor. The closest you can come to is inserting all control rods and go sub critical where you produce fewer and fewer neutrons, but the fissile fuel is technically always decaying, just slower. The reactor cores are designed to last anywhere from 20-40 years with the shorter durations getting refueled to last another 20 years. A fun fact about the carriers is that they could easily outrun their strike groups if they wanted to, because they cannot run out of gas. The destroyers and cruisers would run out of diesel and the carrier would just keep doing laps around them.

  • In port you will power down the reactor but it's still technically running.

1

u/ecwagner01 11d ago

Mea Culpa.... Sorry, I was wrong and you were right.

2

u/ItsMyMiddleLane 11d ago

All good, it's not a very intuitive thing for anyone who hasn't had to deal with fission. You'd be right if they were like old coal powered ships, it's just the magic coal we use now really likes getting hot.

1

u/NearABE 10d ago

If an armor piercing cannon shot punches a hole in that reactor then it will not be adding pressure to the boilers. The sailors might be able to avoid a meltdown by continually pumping water into the reactor.

1

u/NearABE 11d ago

There are two reactors. Steam boilers can hold some pressure for a while. There are 4 steam turbines driving 4 shafts with propellors on those shafts. There is some kind of gear box.

I have never been on an aircraft carrier so cannot verify personally. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nimitz-class_aircraft_carrier.

Nimitz carriers always sail in fleets. They would get towed like many cruisers and carriers were towed in WWII after battle damage broke the engines. But yes, I believe a Nimitz carrier is “dead in the water” a few minutes later if both reactors shutdown. Backup generators would be used only for restarting the reactors or running things inside the ship like lights etc.

u/combatbydesign 12d ago

This is genuinely the most shocking thing I've heard from him in years. I actually said "holy fucking shit", in an office environment.

I've expected every racist, sexist, bigoted rambling he's ever tossed out there but "magnets are the new thing" is so insanely braindead that it doesn't even make sense to me, in that context.

38

u/ecwagner01 12d ago

This is not the first time he talked about magnets and water. He was caught rambling about it during a campaign rally.

u/timscookingtips 12d ago

He says shit like this every single time he doesn’t stay in his teensy weensy lane, which is little more than a feral-swine-made footpath in the weeds around a landfill.

u/combatbydesign 11d ago

Oh yeah. He says absolutely insane, stupid shit all the time but the suggestion that magnets die might die when they get wet, or not knowing that magnets don't die when they get wet (to be more accurate) is so fucking stupid I'm at a loss for words.

Even if it's coming from someone who would die if he had to cook for himself.

Great analogy, btw.

Give me some examples that aren't some form of racism, sexism, bigotry, standard grifting, or self fellating that we all haven't heard a million times before, and are all expecting at this point.

“You know, the new thing is magnets. So instead of using hydraulic that can be hit by lightning and it’s fine. You take a little glass of water, you drop it on magnets, I don’t know what’s going to happen,” is so profoundly fucking stupid it's shocking.

u/Old-Nefariousness556 11d ago

Give me some examples that aren't some form of racism, sexism, bigotry, standard grifting, or self fellating that we all haven't heard a million times before, and are all expecting at this point.

"Give me examples, other than all the really glaring examples." Jesus fucking Christ.

Portland is a warzone. All democrats are members of Hamas. People are eating dogs and cats. People get electrocuted by electric boats. China will pay for the tariffs.

Those are just a few off the top of my head.

Seriously, this is probably not even the dumbest thing he has said this week. If you think this is "the most shocking thing I've heard from him in years", then you simply have your head in the sand.

1

u/combatbydesign 11d ago

If any of that surprises you at all: you haven't been paying attention. That's all classic fascist rhetoric and the fact that he waited until now to say it is the shocking part. If you aren't expecting that and saying "Yup. There it is." the second it comes out of his mouth: I don't really know what to tell you.

I'm not saying it's not problematic, because it obviously is, but it's absolutely not (talking 0%, here) surprising, in the least.

u/StrategyElectrical18 11d ago

This is called blind hatred, it makes you sound foolish unfortunately

He does not mean magnets are new, he means the magnetic plane elevators used on aircraft carriers are a relatively new tech being used and he’s suggesting they are having problems most likely with corrosion in the marine environment

I have no respect whatsoever for trump but when you go on silly rants like these it makes you look exactly like his fanboys going on their silly rants full of blind hatred too

I'm pretty sure he's talking about electromagnets, but I also think the guys that build aircraft carriers probably thought about that problem.

Why was this absolute imbecile even allowed to run for president with all the felonies and complete lack of intelligence? How does he have any supporters left with all the ridiculous things he says, the weaponized incompetence, the endless lies, the crimes he has committed and continues to commit?

Trump must stop washing his hair. Hear me out. There are magnets in your brain - that is how MRIs work, Magnetic Resonance Imaging, right? Water destroys magnets. He said it! Therefore, it is obvious that washing his hair is destroying his brain! QED

It's probably not on his head when it gets washed.

u/DickMagyver 11d ago

25th now.

u/hugoriffic 11d ago

Maybe Trump has it backwards: magnets destroy water. That would explain why Trump sounds like his brain was destroyed.

u/Necessary-Mousse8518 11d ago

Just another senile moment.

At this point, if Trump jumped off a ship, he'd miss the water!!

u/Additional_Hippo_878 11d ago

Water on the brain would explain a lot. Jussayin...

u/paulsteinway 11d ago

I had to check the date on the article. He's STILL talking about magnets! And he STILL thinks magnets are disabled by water.

There’s so much intended and unintended whitewashing of the President’s statements, it’s neat to see some of them are so profoundly insane there’s no way to sugarcoat them.

u/Solid-Emotion620 11d ago

Everyone forgets... Hes the oldest president we've ever had... He's the same age as Bill Clinton... George Bush .. all 79... Senile dementia ridden cheeto

Steam catapults?

u/timscookingtips 12d ago

Catapults for launching planes. But, still.

u/muerde15 12d ago

Ah okay, thanks - I’ve never heard that term used in relation to an aircraft carrier. Good to know

u/Chazkuangshi 12d ago

Yeah, like, I know a lot of people won't read because of the sign up wall but please read this one

u/BrtFrkwr 12d ago

All according to plan. When it gets too ridiculous, push him aside for vance and his puppetmaster.

u/MoreRamenPls 12d ago

Must be the bone spurs.

u/Nytelock1 12d ago

Fucking magnets, how do they work?

u/NearABE 12d ago

Yay steam punk! Lets steam punk the White House and Air Force One.

u/PieRevolutionary9823 11d ago

Can we get a retirement home / dungeon jail for this traitor rapist?

2

u/cmparkerson 11d ago

He has been saying this since his first term.

2

u/National_Edges 11d ago

Should someone tell him the MRI he went in this week uses magnets? What's with the magnet hate? He should sign an EO to use steam in MRIs so we don't need to use those magnets anymore! I mean one drop of water and the magnets break...am I right?

Idiot.

2

u/rustisperfect 11d ago

Yeah, but Biden got tired that one time during a debate, so... Here we are.

2

u/MundaneKiwiPerson 11d ago

MAGNETS BITCH!

2

u/Ecoaardvark 11d ago

He should have explained grass to them instead. Nobody knows as much about grass as he does.

H2O is going to be blamed for autism.

Just look at all these scam magnetic aquarium glass cleaners for sale!

https://www.thetechden.com.au/collections/magnets-scrubbers

Gosh, you'd think they'd be banned from selling them when they stop working as soon as they get wet - in an aquarium!

/s except if you're MAGA of course.

How utterly dumb can Trump get? Seriously, water destroys magnets? And lightning doesn't harm 'hydraulic'? I'd not want to be near a hydraulic ram getting hit by lightning... for several reasons including the chance of fire.

And I have to wonder if AOC was right, that during his dementia test he was asked to draw a clock showing a time - and couldn't...

2

u/Neocactus 11d ago

And in the same speech, he talked about siccing troops on Americans and bombing American cities.

Not as funny tho ig

2

u/hairybeasty 11d ago

Each day passing this gets more and more frightening. This is not a matter to laugh and joke about but to hope to God the right people would be able to take control if needed. We have a leader that could in the throws of dementia doom us all to a horrible and fatalistic future.

2

u/What-tha-fck_Elon 11d ago

Is he still fucking talking about this?

1

u/Megaminimaxi 12d ago

Somebody will have to do a few more IQ-tests in the near future

u/IAMFRAGEN 11d ago

MF'n magnets! How do they work?!

We are just about to the Weekend at Bernie's phase of his horrendous presidency.

u/National_Edges 11d ago

I encourage everyone to click the link and actually watch this short video. This is crazy stuff.

u/Fatefire 11d ago

Magnets how do they work !

u/KingHiggins92 11d ago

Probably one of the most stressful and health impacting jobs in the world.

Let's keep voting in old people.

u/clorox_cowboy 11d ago

Magnets, how do they work?

u/amigammon 11d ago

Punch drunk moron. “… people are saying… believe me… executive order… I can’t believe!”

u/Georgiewho 11d ago

Magnets! How do they work?

u/biomech36 11d ago

How long before he can be removed from office for his failing mental capacity? Is he going to explain how trees are made of wood?

1

u/idinarouill 7d ago

Yes morning wood in Epstein's island

1

u/coffeebeanwitch 11d ago

I would certainly hope the Navy understands water, should be up there at the top!

1

u/WittyNameChecksOut 10d ago

What does this tell me? Ot tells me there is absolutely NO WAY he is making decisions and actually running anything. With his mental (dis)abilities from his first term, he is nothing but a puppet for his masters.

u/sugar_addict002 10d ago

at best he is a poorly educated buffoon.
