How much did YOU Spend doing this Ted?

I hope it was a lot. And I hope you feel really fucking dumb about it.

If you had listened to me (and yet another correct prediction), you would have known that the Democrats were going to cave on the shutdown in the week after the election and food stamps would be back in place.


But no... I know I won't be getting that satisfaction here.

We all know you didn't spend a fucking dime buying food for anybody else, don't we, Theodore?

You did your part. You posted marching orders to 7 people on a long-dead fan site that they should go out and buy other people food and got your little dopamine hit every time you copied and pasted it in the tags and all over the RWED board. Your job was done.

I believe in solving problems, not sharing them.


This whole thread is mis-titled.

"Why Trump is stupid" is promising an explanation ... the CAUSE, if you will... of Trump's presumed stupidity.

For example, "Trump is stupid because he was dropped on his head as a baby", or
"Trump is stupid because he was born with severe ADHD".

What you really mean, THGR, is "why I THINK Trump is stupid".

Then you could come up with a lot of examples.

Just, yanno, a philosophical comment on the question "why", and how you misunderstand the word.

Because you cannot come to the obvious conclusion on your own, I'll tell you why I titled the thread "why Trump is stupid." It's very simple. I guess you haven't noticed that I keep posting evidence that shows why? Each post is a, this in why.

This being the case, the title of the thread is apropos since he keeps saying and doing stupid things I can post about that shows why he is stupid. I guess I could have called it, stupid is as stupid does, but I didn't lass.

Sorry if this simple, straightforward concept confused you comrade.

too funny...

President Donald Trump’s morning penchant for firing off controversial messages on Twitter potentially derailed his administration’s policy Thursday, after he came out against a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act renewal his own Administration is pushing.

The tweet came just hours before the House was preparing a much-anticipated vote on a six-year extension of Section 702 of the FISA program, which allows U.S. intelligence agencies to monitor foreign communications.

You don't have a single idea what Trump is doing.

You've already proven yourself far too stupid to be contemplating such things.

Don't you worry your silly little head about the daily news anymore, Jaynez. It will only confuse you.

I recommend you focus on pop culture stuff and only give your attention to politics one day per month and catch up.

The president doesn't read: Why Trump’s illiteracy is a disaster for Americans

As the war on Iran inflicts harm around the globe and the domestic political situation continues to spiral, New York Times columnist Jamelle Bouie asserts that President Donald Trump’s illiteracy has played no small part in creating a “disaster.”

“He doesn’t really read,” said Bouie, pointing out the widely reported fact that during his first term, Trump rarely managed to read and receive his daily presidential briefings. At the time, his aides even began to “trick” him into reading them by including lots of pictures and peppering documents with his name.

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/opinion/the-president-doesn-t-read-why-
trump-s-illiteracy-is-a-disaster-for-americans/ar-AA1ZxmaF
?



Time exposes all. Since Trump has taken office, his illiteracy has been front and center. Some of us saw this going back to 2016 and earlier. Others are just starting to see it. The morons are just starting to see it because they too are not too bright. That, and their hate towards others blocked them from seeing his/their sickness; seeing Trump for who and what he/they, are.

Trump Doesn’t Believe in His Own Foreign Policy. Does That Matter?

here have been a great many odd things about the first year of Donald Trump’s presidency, but one of the oddest is the vast distance that has opened up between the president and his own policies. Presidents never fully get their way on the entire range of foreign policy issues their administrations confront, although they do tend to get their way on the issues they care most about. But as I discuss in my new book, American Grand Strategy in the Age of Trump, this president’s core geopolitical beliefs and the foreign policy executed in his name have in several cases seemed 180 degrees apart.

The president clearly loathes NATO and believes that protecting the European allies is a fool’s errand, yet his administration has continued and even expanded efforts to reinforce deterrence along NATO’s eastern flank. He has repeatedly called for a new relationship with Russia, but his administration has now decided to sell lethal defensive weaponry to Ukraine and is taking initial steps to develop a land-based, intermediate-range nuclear delivery system to counter Russian violations of the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces (INF) Treaty.

King Charles just delivered a pointed message to Trump: CNN analyst

An analyst was surprised after King Charles III directed comments at President Donald Trump in his address to Congress on Tuesday.

David Chalian, senior vice president, Washington bureau chief and political director for CNN, commented that King Charles encouraged Trump to support Ukraine, praised his country's Navy and military after Trump had questioned it, and reinforced his dedication to preserving the world's environment, areas where Trump has disagreed with the monarch.

Chalian described the significant moment in a conversation with CNN anchor Jake Tapper.

"And did not hide from them at all," Chalian said. "I mean, I think a speech that was putting democratic values, the rule of law, the power of alliances, even a specific — on the support of Ukraine's defense — these stand in complete opposition. And in fact, some of them are the very things that Donald Trump sort of rails against when he's complaining about Europe or the UK, specifically."

Trump’s Irrationality Is Dangerous

The president’s recent rant is a sign of serious dysfunction in the Oval Office.

By Tom Nichols | August 4, 2026, 6:03 PM ET

https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/08/trump-reflecting-pool-irrati
onality/688180
/

Many Americans—and much of the rest of the world—have become inured to Donald Trump’s strange rants. When he shouts about sharks, when he drones on about his brilliant uncle, when he casually ponders violating the Constitution, his supporters try to dress his statements up as some kind of strategy: He’s not lost touch with reality, you see. He’s doing the weave, or he’s owning the libs. He’s fighting the fake news and flooding the zone. He knows what he’s doing.

These excuses have never really held much water. But his rant yesterday about the Reflecting Pool (speaking of things that don’t hold water) was a warning that the president has encased himself in the hard amber of irrationality that inevitably surrounds authoritarian leaders. He has become detached from reality—and that detachment is extremely dangerous.

The Reflecting Pool mess is different from other Trump obsessions because it reveals just how immune to evidence and logic his beliefs have become, even when a trusted lieutenant wheels an entire box of supporting evidence into the Oval Office. In Trump’s world, nothing is ever innocent. If something went wrong, the fault must lie with Americans conspiring against him, not with a contractor who did shabby work. And so the boss put out the order: Find the criminals who destroyed my lovely pool.

The task of prosecuting this inane case fell to Jeanine Pirro, who has known Trump for more than three decades. She has long been one of his most loyal defenders on Fox News, and she was his personal choice for the job of U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia after the failed nomination of Ed Martin. She dutifully charged multiple people with vandalizing the Reflecting Pool, including the Olympic athlete David Hearn. But last week, she moved to drop the case after admitting that the pool’s condition was “the result of a botched installation” and not of criminal activity. Trump immediately turned on her. In a Truth Social post after Pirro’s filing, Trump said he disagreed “100%” with his old friend. “I don’t know what she was thinking? To me, it was a pure case of VANDALISM.”

This outburst, however, was merely a warm-up for a nearly 10-minute performance yesterday afternoon in the Oval Office that went well beyond Trump’s usual whining. Pirro, he said, “choked” under pressure from the court. She “made a mistake. It was vandalism.” He continued:
Quote:

One of the things was, the Reflecting Pool hasn’t worked since 1922, because it always leaked. It always leaked from 1922. You know, it’s the largest, longest pool ever, all that. The concept is beautiful, but it always leaked because of the size, because of maintenance, whatever. But it was built in 1922, and from the day it was built, it was—it leaked. Biden spent $58 million. Barack Hussein Obama spent much more than that. He said, “I have an idea. Let’s take the river from, let’s take the water from the Potomac.” So they took the water from the Potomac, and it was putrid. It was putrid. It was a disaster. Biden was a disaster.
But how did Trump know that Pirro was wrong and he was right? “We have photographs or tapes,” he said, “like moving cameras, right? We have them where people are on the side, cutting it with a box knife.” Trump then admitted that he wasn’t “thrilled” with the work the contractor did, but “in addition, there was vandalism.” He complained about some damage to the grass nearby, but then came back to the pool, where “they took knives or cutters, and they cut the material—it’s material. And they put their hands and they pulled it.”

Pirro undermined all of this in a lengthy filing to the court that accompanied her request to withdraw the case. Perhaps in an earlier time, when Trump appeared more amenable to listening to the advice of friends and trusted advisers, he might have been satisfied with the harassment of his opponents. As the New York Times reporters Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan wrote in their recent book on Trump, he admitted that he wanted charges filed just to harass perceived enemies such as New York Attorney General Letitia James, even if the charges were unlikely to stick. “I want to make her life miserable,” they quote him as saying to an adviser.

But Trump has now passed from being a stubborn narcissist to a cocooned authoritarian. Political scientists since World War II have studied the problem of “irrational” leaders, people in positions of power who seem unable to accept any version of reality that conflicts with their assumptions. Irrational, in this sense, does not mean “stupid,” or “incompetent,” or “psychotic.” It refers more specifically to leaders who have become so trapped by their own self-regard, so isolated from the outside world, so imprisoned within their own sense of infallibility that they refuse to consider any arguments or information that conflicts with their beliefs.

Trump reportedly relishes being compared to some of the great dictators of the past, but he apparently does not comprehend how their stories are also warnings. Joseph Stalin was so certain he had outfoxed the Nazis that he fell into catatonic denial for several days after the Germans attacked in 1941. Saddam Hussein refused to believe that American troops were crossing into Iraq, even as tanks rumbled toward Baghdad. Nicolae Ceauescu of Romania was one of many leaders throughout history who refused to believe that he was about to be deposed, despite troops advancing on their palace. (He and his wife died shouting orders at their firing squad.)

Trump’s detachment from reality is sometimes amusing and often alarming, but the price of his irrationality until now has been mostly economic and reputational (or, in the case of the Reflecting Pool, aesthetic, now that the cases against innocent Americans have been dropped). His belief in tariffs, for example, is a flatly irrational attachment to a tool that has been proven, over and over, to harm Americans. Likewise, his fixation on NATO has undermined decades of careful diplomacy and weakened the strongest alliance in history.

The war in Iran, however, has shown that Trump’s inability to perceive reality has become truly dangerous. He led the United States into a disastrous conflict because he thought his “gut” was smarter than the advisers who warned him that deposing Iran’s regime was unlikely. He continues to mislead the American people, and perhaps himself, about America’s strategic defeat at the hands of one of its worst enemies. The world economy and the balance of power have been changed, perhaps for many decades to come, because Trump cannot draw links between cause and effect; he does not understand that his actions and the failures that follow are somehow related to each other.

Iran is a disaster, but Trump’s irrationality could create other, even more perilous situations. When the water systems in seven states were recently subjected to cyberattacks, Trump blamed his fellow Americans, despite evidence of foreign involvement. What if America suffers another mass-terror attack, and Trump decides that it, too, is the work of disloyal Americans instead of foreigners? Will his underlings round people up based on such a delusion? Or perhaps Trump, if his party is beaten soundly in the midterms, will make up his mind that such a loss is impossible and call for invalidating the election’s results. He might even inspire his supporters to violence—as he did on January 6, 2021.

More worrisome is the possibility of a military crisis that unfolds quickly and threatens U.S. allies or the United States itself. If Russian President Vladimir Putin decides to test NATO and attacks a member of the alliance, or if China begins to move in the Pacific, could anyone in Trump’s inner circle contradict the president’s presumptions and biases? If, say, Russia or China or other powers go to a heightened state of nuclear alert, Trump would have to make decisions of potentially cataclysmic importance. Would he listen, even to basic information, if it conflicted with his omniscient gut?

Trump has always been notoriously un-briefable, but in his first term, he had people who would try to speak the truth to him. More important, he was capable, at least to some limited degree, of occasionally listening to those assistants. All of that is gone. Trump slamming his old friend Pirro shows that when even the most trusted allies offer him the truth, he won’t accept it.

Trump is not going to have some sudden epiphany about the need for an open and honest policy process. Like other authoritarians before him, the president has retreated, irrevocably, behind the walls of his own Forbidden City of the mind—a place where he is the emperor, his judgment is always right, and his commands must always be obeyed.

Wow. It took two of you idiots to write that article, Ted Bundy Golem. Too bad low-IQ brains run in parallel with each other rather than in series, so instead of doubling the IQ by having two writers on the story, they just have two 30 IQ idiots that needed to get paid for this article instead of just one 30 IQ idiot.
