“I can just see the fake headlines,” Trump said. “President Trump is talking about all the money they’re making while people are suffering at the pump.”
“But I said, ‘I don’t give a damn, I’m gonna say it: We’re making a frickin fortune,’” he added.
He said “we”. That doesn’t mean the United States is making a fortune.
The kleptocrats are the only ones making a fortune. Americans are all broke.
When he says we he means him.
By “US” he means himself of course. L’État c’est moi. He does not have a concept of the US as a state or cares about anything of that kind. Mobsters only care about their own financial interests.
let’s have fun reading about the Rhode Island Banking Crisis caused by, you guessed it, a mobster in control of people’s money and fraudulent “insurers” securing the funds.
edit:
these guys also came to prominence in the 80s, citing Trump’s deals in NY as a framework for how to use political connections to make money flow from out of the public pockets and into private accounts.
And still in most states, the elections are “neck and neck.”
Thanks, media. You got your exciting and profitable horse race election. We got fascism.
You are not included in the “we” that’s “making a fortune”, trump voters. You are the we who are paying for trump to rob you, still lose money in the end and call it profit.
The US is making such a fortune that its national debt is larger than it has ever been. But Trump only cares for Trump.
National debt growing at record rates, 99% of the population is having a harder time affording stuff, but that 1% is making bank. Especially the ones not afraid to jump into the new “morality” where bribes are ok
“Paging Dr Guillotin, code crimson on ward 1”
We? What we would that be? Not me. Never me.
He has DOUBLED the national debt, but he thinks we’re making a fortune. He’s like the guy who thinks he’s rich because he can buy anything he wants with a credit card.
He’s is enriching his tribe. Not the people. This is what amerika voted for
Tax and spend Republicans.
He doesn’t mean we the people he means him and his family.
Trump says he doesn’t ‘give a damn’
about gas prices as US making ‘fortune’Fixed the title.
Extorting a fortune from the working class. I can’t wait until an angry mob gives him the Mussolini finale
Here I wish they would sentence every member in Florida and U.S. congress to prison who read the report on Matt Gaetz traffickimg and raping a minor to prison for 20 years no parole. Every one of them is an accessory to raping a child at this point. If any of them voted to support the death penalty those ones should get it.
All of their families should be ashamed of their names for generations.
(Oh and for the record, it was read in U.S. congress, so all of them live in the district of the death penalty, they are the ones who didn’t vote it out… They should hope they had the chance to do so, or proposed to get rid of it)
Most people in the Trump administration and a good number of Congress is probably pedophiles
the Mussolini finale
The Gaddafi coda would also be an acceptable outcome.
Disturbing. An AI “ecosystem” is what the fascists say they’re building .
It baffles me that people see this guy getting increasingly unhinged the farther into his dementia he gets, and they just shrug. Congress could remove him anytime they want too.
His supporters don’t see this stuff.
They go to his rallies, can’t get more in your face real than that. His incoherent ramblings on a stage don’t lie.
They still just clap at anything he says. Must be nice, being in a cult and just ignoring or not realizing one’s struggles.
But actually, I’d rather be aware of them.
In their defense, if Trump is as bad as he appears at the rallies they attend that would mean they were wrong, enabled terrible people to do horrible things and are themselves monsters for cheering these people as they raped, stole and lied. So they kind of can’t afford to be wrong. Granted, they can’t afford anything alse,at this point…both financially and morally bankrupt.
MAGA faithful have been walking out due to boredom since his first term, it’s just physically impossible to get enough of them in one place at the same time because of all that empty land in the big beautiful map of cows that voted for him
I listened to an (american) podcast and on the side they talk a lot about pefophiles/guns because it was relevant. The point was always like: man pedophiles shold all just hang on the road, so other pedophiles would be scared. “When i was young my dad told me that they just made pedophiles dissapear.” And he was awefully proud of that. There was A LOT of talk about what they would do with a pedophile. Meanwhile they have the most famous pedophile in charge of their country, but not a single mention of that.
Yeah it’s almost like they don’t want to fix anything or hold any of these ghouls accountable at all because they all want their own piece of the money/power shit pie. Weird. Nobody can seem to figure it out. What in the world is going on?
Greed. - And it’s such a disgusting disease that raping children is ignored in favor of it.
Thanks for reminding me…I try not to think about it bcz it’s extremely triggering as a survivor of child rape.
Whenever he says America he means “me”.
For examle: Me first! or Democrats are the greatest threat to me.

Did that go well for him?
Trump seems to have a humiliation kink so he might briefly enjoy the consequences should he see any
A me rica you say?
Missing a word there I think:
Trump says he doesn’t ‘give a damn’ about gas prices as US BILLIONAIRES are making a ‘fortune’
How can a non-wealthy trump supporter hear this and continue to support him?
He’s pissing in your fucking face.
They don’t know he said this.
That’s right. The “editorial” for small town papers around here, which are mostly owned by super rich people now is a satire bit about the editor making fun of himself wanting to be king, to try and make fun of the no kings movement. Nothing of actual substance ever enters conservative owned media outside of them making fun of it so their base sadly thinks they are being clever by rejecting opposing views.
they’re stupid, a stupid person is one that does things to hurt others even if it hurts themselves. Trump’s not stupid, his supporters are, as long as he keeps hurting the people they dislike, he can keep pissing and they’ll cheer.
Because as long as he is pissing in minorities faces too, it’s acceptable for them.
They are just brainwashed.
I’m done with “brainwashed”. They’re fuckin morons.
It is important to clarify that they are hateful morons. The “hate”-part is doing a lot of work. You can be a moron and not be a Trump supporter, but it is very rare to see a hateful moron who isn’t one.
I agree there is nothing to wash there. Their mind has been a tabula rasa from the beginning and they will parrot anything.
They are indeed, but somewhere humanity failed them. You are not born a moron.
citation needed ? people are born with many things eg diabetes, who now go on to survive. You have asserted facts with no evidence.
I used to think a decent education etc would help but I see no evidence of that.
Critical thinking needed?
Obviously there’s many conditions people can have and some people are better learners than others.
Moron isnt meant literally, we are discussing the red voters who blindly follow Trump, that’s the context. People who were born into poor states, into poor families, who didnt get the chance to have good education. They became morons. Obviously babies are fucking morons by the definition of it. Whats with these comments completely ignoring the context???
Idk I’ve met babies and they are deffo morons.
You absolutely are born a moron LOL
Maybe you are right, I see your critical thinking skills didnt develop.

Leopards been eatin’ good since 2016.
What am I saying. These phat cats been eatin’ good since Reagan.
Leopards been eating good for far longer than that. At least since politics was invented. Probably even before then.
It’s quite amazing how dumb these maga people continue to be.
I’ve heard the saying that they all consider themselves temporarily embarrassed millionaires.
They love it, also Trump told them it’s raining.
He calls them stupid and they cheer.
They like it when he pisses in their face
They like the piss. It’s trickle down economics.
They’ve all eaten their bananas, it’s the antidote for piss in your face
Cells. Lack of them to be specific. And brain ones to be more specific.
Of all the cells, the brain ones really are the most important of the cells.
“The fake headlines that say I said the thing that I’m saying in literally this exact same breath.”
This isn’t even the first time he’s said something like this…
