Weird how language works. There's so many words for so many things but I certainly can't think of anything that could express "permanently paused" in a better, more concise way....
/s (if it wasn't obvious)
Trump couldn't even accurately describe what a third world country is. He's a special needs toddler trying to do a 4 pc puzzle of a much more complex picture.
Except we all know what he means by third world: brown.
Careful or hell send the military after his diapers.
So... no more Irish or Norwegian immigrants?
I kind of wonder if the shooting was planned when looking at the facts
- shooter background was an Afghan CIA operative
- shooter was vetted and given asylum by Trump administration in April 2025
- months ago Trump deployed National Guard to DC without justification citing "crime", despite crime rates dropping
- a week ago, a judge ruled the National Guards deployment in DC was unlawful and he lacked authority or cause for it
- two days ago, operative shoots 2 guardsmen not far from white house and immediately surrenders
- Trump and Hegseth immediately respond saying not only are the national guards presence there legitimate and justified, but they are activating 500 more to head to DC
Curious.
I’ve no doubt in my mind that this was entirely purposeful. Just like his “attempted assassination”. I’m fully convinced that that kid was promised a load of cash and had no idea he’d be taken out.
Don’t forget that less than 24 hours earlier there were the reports about potentially firing kash.

permanent
pause
Pick one.
Does he even know what words mean?
Both he and he’s loyalists think he defeated a hurricane with a sharpie. I’m not really sure we all exist in the same reality as they do.
Does he even know what words mean?
Some maybe, most probably not.
You can tell when he learns a new word because he's like a first-grader and wants to tell everyone the "new" thing he just found out about.
Groceries, affordability, magnets ... The list of basic concepts he's learning at 79 is kind of shocking.
Bastard gets another reason to be a bigger asshole.
Orange twat is turning THIS COUNTRY into a third world country...
But we are a third world country… Last month there were churches all over the world raising money to help feed American children while our government was shut down and couldn’t help cover subsidies for food.
Make it make sense 🤡🌎
Third world means "brown people country" to him, that's how it makes sense for them. Almost every question about why this administration does or says anything can be answered with "racism" or "pedofilia".
"third world" is an outdated Cold War term that referred to countries that weren't aligned with either the US or USSR.
It's loosely bandied about these days to indicate an undeveloped country. Out of the developed countries, the US cares the least about its citizens. But anyone who thinks it isn't a developed country hasn't been to undeveloped one.
As someone who was born and raised in an undeveloped country, and also has been to Europe, the US, Africa, Asia and all over Latin America. US ain't all that.

"decimate" is an outdated term that means to destroy one tenth of something.
Language changes over time. With the Cold War being over there was no longer a need for a term that referred to countries not involved in the Cold War, so the meaning changed to something useful
But anyone who thinks it isn't a developed country...
And speaking of meaning, 3rd world does not mean underdeveloped. However, one of the criteria for a country to be considered "First World" is "having a stable democracy." So whatever you want to classify the US as it sure as fuck isn't a First World Country.

So how does that work since he's turned the US into a third world country?
Nobody in or out. North Korea style.
They're certainly trying to trap all trans people inside for some reason. I say this as a trans citizen who fled and is still getting fucked over by their passport policies.
for the same reason the Jews had a hard time fleeing Germany.
All that being said I'm very happy for you that you were able to get out. Good luck I'm hoping the best for you.

Should be noted that his justification is a lunatic the CIA hired and then brought back from Afghanistan.
Should be noted this is a lunatic brought back from Afghanistan, who Trump threatened to vet refugees from before the attack. If returned back to Afghanistan now would likely be put to death. That adds a lot of fear into these people. And life and death level of fear is dangerous.
Does this whole scenario seem sus to anyone else? There was NOTHING about this on Wednesday and by the time I saw reporting on Thursday they'd already resolved thr situation, somehow captured the guy without killing him (he's got the wrong skin colour to be captured alive), and spun the whole thing into their typical escalation of anti-immigrant rhetoric.
Am I slow in hearing about this, or did they work with this formar governmental collaborator? Seems like a false flag?
Sadly everything that’s happening during this administration is highly questionable, even if it’s 100% legit it will always come with a shitload of questions.

Clearly that was one of the goals
Does he even have that power? I feel that’s a very important question that no one is asking.
Per all his bullshit. He can get a little done until the courts stop him, then endless legal battles. He has no real policy and it all can be erased by the next admin.

I am getting whiplash from how quickly this man contradicts his own statements
So this was staged?
The former CIA asset who was just recently granted asylum? Yeah, it’s a false flag.
