    In a rare move, Michael Haley fired back at the former president, posting a meme on Twitter reading, “The difference between humans and animals? Animals would never allow the dumbest ones to lead the pack,” while mentioning Trump’s account in the caption.

    Yooooooooo… lol I’ll bet Trump is seething. XD

      The Trump campaign can’t afford her and she’s the only one smart enough to get paid upfront.

      And where is Melania?

      Waiting for her cash and prizes, which – given Trump’s current legal woes – might not happen.

    Notably, former first lady Melania Trump has not joined her husband for any public campaign events since his presidential announcement in November 2022 and has not appeared alongside him at any of his court appearances.

    I think his new goal since his last term is “let’s see how hypocritical I can be and still get elected”

      Yeah, at this point when he is elected America kind of has it coming. He hid nothing - as big of an idiot as he is, the bigger idiots are the populous that votes for this guy.

        Sadly I have to agree, but you know all these idiots will still turn around and blame the Dems/Libs for anything that goes wrong. They treat Trump like the North Koreans treat Kim Jung Un, he can do no wrong.

      It seems like Trump enabled GODMODE and is now just fucking about, trying to cause as much chaos as possible before he gets bored.

          That was a blast from the past. I was thinking that he had used either L+I+M repeatedly or AEZAKMI. Hopefully while he’s punching WORSHIPME and HELLOLADIES he could accidentally hit GOODBYECRUELWORLD instead of the BGLUAWML/AJLOJYQY combo that seems much more likely.

      His goal is to be as decisive as possible to encourage the fight because he thinks he can get more on his side through pure spite.

      Haley’s husband is an Army Colonel currently deployed to Djibout. Trump knows this.

      Trump thinks Haley is Pelosi. I’m not sure he knows what fucking year it is anymore.

      Of course, none of that takes away from the very real and key fact that the is an asshole…

        One of these days I’m still going to figure out how a 340 million people country backed itself into having to choose between a well-mannered great-grandfather whose mind keeps taking him to 1990 and a completely demented great-fascist-granduncle to lead the country. (In case you are American, and have to pick, the great-gramps that currently lives in the White House is the choice that still gives you another choice in 4 years)

      If he knew that, he’s just stupid to point that out. That just raises her profile among Republicans.

      Trump knows this. He’s just an asshole.

      I don’t think that he’s an asshole (well, okay, I mean, I don’t think that that is why he’s doing this). He did this sort of thing last time around too. I think that it’s a pretty-intentionally-planned tactic by his campaign.

      I think that Bill Kristol, a conservative commentator who intensely dislikes Trump, was the first I saw to summarize it shortly after Trump won the 2016 election. He called it “misdirection”.

      So, let’s say that you want to control the press, something that would be really useful in an election. You can’t just tell them “talk about X, and don’t talk about Y”, because they’re going to do whatever they want.

      So what you do is say something so outrageous on a particular point that they cannot help but talk about that particular, distracting item. The press jumps on it. The result is that they’re talking about (a) you and (b) what you want them to talk about. Now, the downside is that it tends to be negative, but that’s not necessarily the end of the world. In particular, you’re controlling the media cycle and steering them away from topics that you don’t want them to talk about.

      There are a lot of things that the press might be talking about right now. Trump’s potential criminal convictions, I don’t know. Some of those are things that the Trump campaign does not want them talking about. But they aren’t talking about those. Instead, they’re spending time talking about how Trump was politically incorrect in talking about a candidate’s husband, which isn’t something that people who might vote for Trump are actually all that upset about, and that his campaign will have planned around dealing with.

      Trumps brain is as mushy as bidens, I wouldn’t doubt at all if he, in fact, does not know this anymore. There seriously needs to be an age limit of 55-60 for elected officials this is fucking ridiculous.

    well see he’s out actually serving his country, unlike you, bone spurs.

    I’m not the biggest fan of our military, but I have respect for the hard working people who are a part of it, two things – respect and hard work – Donald Trump knows fuck-all about.
