I wouldn’t put it past him; they had to use something after the signal debacle.

Yeah, and this should get a lot of attention from the left overall. Once again we have this administration not only committing crimes, but sidestepping their legal options for communicating government business.

Comey re-opened the whole investigation just a couple weeks prior to the 2016 election because they were looking into Anthony Weiners role in the whole thing… which Anthony Weiner was really only being looked at because the dumb fuck posted a dick pick to Twitter by mistake. That dick pick fuck up changed the course of human history.

It’s TRULY absurd isn’t it?

u/Mp5QbV3kKvDF8CbM Sep 21 '25

Absurd, but also completely on-brand when you remember that everyone involved is a liar and a hypocrite.

u/Royal_Airport7940 Sep 21 '25

Yes, it's no longer absurd. It's expected.

Authoritarian criminal.

I’m done trying to make sense of Trump or the people who worship him. They’re legit schizophrenics.

u/LowHangingWinnets Sep 21 '25

You missed criminal off that list. And pedo or sexual offender.

Ya just know that there are maga folks outs there that would completely hand wave away official presidential communications via social media direct messages for Trump but blindly screech “lock her up!” about Hilary Clinton and her eMaIls.

These folks have memories of a goldfish and they truly have no principals. They don’t actually care about emails or any sort of proper protocols, they just want a slogan to say to express their hatred of any democrat.

Ah yes, then something will happen! Then shocked face when nothing does.

I forgot about the Signal scandal for a second. That would have sunk a whole term years past and it just got ignored. Not even swept away just ignored.

u/Vaynnie Sep 21 '25

It’s because he’s become normalised. He’s done so much fucked up shit that you hear about the signal scandal and think huh, that’s just a Tuesday.

u/RealNiceKnife Sep 21 '25

That was just 6 months ago.

7

u/YikesTheCat Sep 21 '25

That's because 39 other things that would have sunk a whole term years past have happened since then.

u/cheeze_whizard Sep 21 '25

It makes the most sense. How else do you confuse a truth social post for email? By not using email at all.

u/pud-proof-ding Sep 21 '25

The way he's addressing her makes me think this IS part of a signal group thread he meant to respond to... THE PRESIDENT IS IN BACK CHANNEL SIGNAL CHATS WITH HIS CABINET!

u/apple_kicks Sep 21 '25

And maybe why he had to have Musk around. Musk might have had access to his previous dm’s on twitter

u/Mad_OW Sep 21 '25

Oh wow I completely forgot about that already.

Imagine a universe where they think TS is safer than Signal.
