    “She’s not having success. I’m having success”

    Did he start that sentence with “nuh ah,” because that sounds like something a 6 year old would say.

      He’s just gonna keep repeating it…

      Real narcissism at Trump’s level is legit like this. They convince themselves that their version is real life, and just refuse to acknowledge anything contrary to that

      South Park actually did a really good job portraying it in the Fish Sticks episode with Cartman’s memory continually evolving to keep making him believe new versions where he created more and more of the joke.

      trump legit believes he’s succeeding, it’s why he’s such a good conman. It’s not a con to him, all his crazy promises he thinks he’ll follow thru on, and when he doest he rationalizing it as not his fault and he did everything he can.

          If somebody told me they based George on Trump, I wouldn’t even bother fact checking, it’s just one of those things that makes too much sesne to doubt.

          They’ve got too many similarities personality wise.

            I am currently rewatching Seinfeld and can’t see any similarities to be honest. George is a downtrodden nerd with very little self-worth always questioning himself and his decisions, thinking of himself as a loser and often saying so himself. Trump is the opposite of that, no?

              George is trump with the money stripped away

              And George wasn’t a nerd, he was a dork, there’s a difference

          Not enough people watch American Dad, but there’s an episode where the Dad (he’s from America) decides he could just decide to ignore people…

          It’s probably one the best C stories in American television.

          And trump’s story is probably going to end the same way Stan’s did

              I may or may not hear Stan in my head saying that everytime I stop typing a reply and just block someone.

              Such a cathartic feeling to know that person just blinked out of existence from your perspective.

    Got it. So he absolutely, 100% without a doubt called them first.

      Just like he’s trying to appropriate the word coup by saying Biden was kicked out in a coup.

      He uses it to soften his ACTUAL coup attempt during and after the 2020 election.

        I think that’s the origin of the “every accusation is a confession” effect. If there’s one thing they’re good at, it’s conditioning their base to ignore critics.

      They keep failing at reappropriating the word because the things they keep trying to say are weird are remarkably normal to regular folks with regular families, and they wind up looking weird themselves for trying.

      It’s like if I said “Get a load of Bob, hugging his wife without her recoiling at his touch. What a weirdo, right guys?!”

      He just tried to call something weird in the article, so most recent time was then. Though, even if I can’t recall specifics, I’m sure he’s done it many times when his brain runs out of new insults.

            Not really, because if it was “all of them,” then you wouldn’t have said “get one that works,” implying that not all of them work.

            Plus don’t pull a Sarah Palin. “Which newspaper do you read?” “All of them!”

            Just help the dude and give one working example.
