I honestly can't tell what's real any more. Which is the whole idea, I guess.

    We're changing the name to "Schrödinger's Strait"

    It exists in a state of superposition until an oil tanker explodes

    Holy fuck, he really IS declining fast. The language in this post is even dumber and more childlike than normal. We gotta get this fucker out of the WH.

    He is no longer writing on 8 grade level. He is writing on 8-year-old level

    Trump's tweets become 10x funnier and 20x more sad when you read them in Chris Chan's voice

    So because China said fuck you were going through the strait anyways, he's taking credit for their entering? Lol The Nuh uh, is too strong with that one.

    Yeah so apparently China has also been sending Iran some weapons. Cause that's definitely in China's best interest.

    U.s so worried Iran would get nuclear weapons and literally created the situation that would hand them more weapons and possibly nuclear tech support from China.

    As well as increasing their economic situation by encouraging a toll booth.

    I'm happy that Iran is getting ahead, after all the U.S sanctions b.s. But the cost was very high for them.

    If Chinas Navy pulled up and said "We're here to get our tankers. Go on, try and stop us." That would be a slap in the face he wouldnt survive OR he starts WW3... which he also wouldnt survive.

    Every time Trump makes a tweet, I cannot gauge whether it's fake or real. How can a nation elect something like that?

    Oh, hey — I've gone through this since his first term.

    Yeah I asked my Trump loving office trog what he thinks about all the stuff Trump, Hegseth and the other sycophants say. His response boiled down to 'I don't pay attention to everything they say or do.'

    The average Trump voter will not be described as discerning in the history books. It's a shame they've been allowed to be the loudest Americans.

    *Women are actually pretty happy that I’ve decided to finally treat them with respect. I’m doing it for them, sure — but also for myself, and honestly for society as a whole. This kind of situation won’t happen again. They’ve basically agreed to respond better to me now that I’m acting different. I mean, when I show up, they’ll probably appreciate it — maybe not say it outright, but you can tell.

    We’re working together now, in a smarter way, and it’s going really well! Isn’t that better than all the conflict and rejection??? BUT REMEMBER, I could go back to how things were before if I wanted to — I just don’t, because I’m choosing the better path now.*

    Jesus fuckin christ, it's like a child wrote it. I was sure this was fake, it had to be fake. I just wish it was fake.

    I'd like to see Trump fight. It'd be funny.

    "I know fighting. NOBODY knows more about fighting than me. I was at the MMZ the other night. Big guys came up to me, tears in their eyes, "MR PRESIDENT, can you give me some advice for my next fight?"

    "Don't get in the octagone with everybody's favourite president", I told him. I meant it as a joke. I do that self-depreciating humour, because I'm so humble. Lot of people don't think I am, but I am. I don't like to brag, but I'm the best at self-depreciting. Believe me. Believe me.

    Anyway, you could tell from the fear in his eyes he thought I was serious. Which is okay. If I was there, it would be MY ring. I wouldn't want to be in my ring with me either".

    That's not from Trump. While it uses his phrasing, sort of, the whole thing stays on one point and is generally cohesive.

    I'm pretty sure he uses an llm to write a lot of his posts. The ones like this one.

    The rest are voice-to-text.

    You say that with such effortless confidence without even having bothered to check, and not one of those 10 people who upvoted tried to check either. golf clap

    His team can post on his behalf. It might be posted on his account by someone else.

    Sure, and if you want to argue "a staffer did it", then "staying on point"/"generally cohesive" is a stretch to make the argument work. This has extremely jumpy flow, and trying to move the standard further back and say "bUt NoT fOr TrUmP" just turns this whole thing into an unfalsifiable hypothesis facilitated by an infinitely movable goalpost. I can point out why it's so jumpy (any literate person should be able to), but I'm confident it'll be met with, again, "tRuMp StAnDaRdS tHo!!".


    Edit: More importantly, though, saying confidently that "it's not from Trump" is hilariously unfounded. I'm not arguing it is or is not from Trump, but rather that saying anything definitively like that is absurd.

    This is so dumb, he can make an account for each staffer that wants to post so we can see who is posting what garbage.

    Without a clear indication of who is posting he is likely violating the law in regards to record retention.

    I think they're claiming it isn't from Trump's official account, just that he didn't write it

    I believe that, in which case "that's not from Trump" is something they're in no position to say matter-of-factly; they're just guessing (and I think poorly, at that). It's just palm-reading the post and then giving a definitive, with no caveats, "Nope, Trump didn't write this."

    I linked to the article because trying to definitively say Trump didn't write something definitionally has to be reserved for fake posts, not real ones that come from his account with no disclaimer and no later admission.
