I can't accept any screenshot of a Trump post as real unless there's a link to the original.

My father in law never swore in good company before having a stroke. Afterwards his “filter” was off and he swore like a sailor for any reason.

I wonder if that’s why Trump was supposedly at Walter Reed Friday?

Yet you cannot dismiss it out of hand no matter how dumb it is, if he posted that he just launched nukes at the Sun in retaliation for solar flares that put out our Communications systems, one could not be entirely certain he didn't actually write that.

That's exactly the problem. He didn't launch nukes at the sun, though, right?

Would there even be a point to making a fake post? He can come up with stuff that's far more unhinged than anything a compos mentis person can, and he does it on regular basis.

It seems to be real, even though it's not available anymore. There are still levels to the insanity though and with Trump it's impossible to discern reality from fiction without sources.

It's the first post on his truth social account, which I won't link here.

It's still there.

Interesting: using a VPN in Europe I can't see the post when following a direct link to it. Probably just some stupid setup on truth social.

Change exit of your VPN , and look at your DNS settings

Is there even a point to screenshots of tweets?

I relate to this, but they almost always end up being real because this unfortunate reality is the one we're in :/
