He’s creating a trauma bond with the country by stirring up market volatility & economic uncertainty. It’s emotional abuse on a grand scale: “I’ll hurt you & scare you, but you know I’m the only one who can make it better.”

Catholics love them some drama! The Church just named Robert Prevost, a guy from Chicago, the new Pope…
…thereby displacing Trump as the most important American (at least for a little while), and he’s gonna lose it.
Brace yourself for the back-handed compliments & outright digs!

I have two 11yo girls. Let’s get a few things straight:
1. Don’t call 11yo kids “baby girls.” Ew. WTF?
2. IDK any kid that has 30 dolls. But stuffed animals… JFC they have way more than 30.
3. PENCILS? Only a grown ass man who writes with markers would limit pencils for kids.

Trump: I don't think a beautiful baby girl that's 11 years old needs to have 30 dolls. I think they can have 3 dolls or four dolls...they don't need to have 250 pencils. They can have 5.
Sounds like a true communist to me

The irony of The White House posting this pic of President & MAGA Cult Leader in Chief Donald Trump as the Catholic Pope (and the incensed reactions of many highly religious people) is that religion itself is often incredibly cult-like, and a great number of cults are disguised as religion.

Trump’s goal isn’t really about tariffs or deportations or tax cuts or healthcare.
All of this arbitrary, capricious governance is to create a nation where everyone anxiously, breathlessly watches Trump’s mood, his expression, to see if he frowns or smiles.

In Trump's America, the one thing you can count on is a potential market meltdown every 90 days.
