    What’s the big deal? He has his own way of doing it, which is wrong. That’s all reporters need to point out.

    Trump is an idiot who can’t do basic math. OK. Seems on-brand to me.

    He is surrounded by silver-spoon idiots who think it’s OK to defend his discalcula. Again, OK. On-brand.

  2. “Has his own way of calculating’ percentages”

    sounds like something youd say to elegantly insult someone intelligence

  3. He calculate things the same way he always has been, by pulling it directly out of his ass.

  4. Imagine spending a decade getting your PhD in mathematics just to be called up by a journalist to confirm that politicians cannot, in fact, magically alter the rules of arithmetic

    “If you have a $600 drug, and you reduce it to $10, that’s a 600% reduction” according to Trump’s braindead “calculations”.

    We have complete dumbfucks running the country and it’s hard not to laugh despite the real world implications of these idiots making important decisions.

  7. I would love some journalist who still has their balls to ask Trump “what is 15% of 200?” then press him for an answer.

    *”He has a different way of looking at things.”*

    Yes, an *incorrect* way of looking at things.

    Seriously, this has been the problem from the start,  “versions of *truth*” is literally baked into every single of their viewpoints. 

    Their perspective is at war with reality and we all pay the price.

    The stupid among us should never be seen necessarily as inferior. They surely have as many survival instincts, but the choice of tools and how they’re used is absolutely awful.

    He just throws out random numbers, one day its 500% the next its 1000%, hes not calculating anything lmao

  10. I knew propaganda was over the top, but it’s still amazing that Republicans can take the sentence “we just make shit up,” give it a quick soak in a thesaurus, and it’s accepted as a valid answer.

    what a scam….

    *Warren’s analysis of TrumpRx’s pricing scheme echoes a March report from the Center for American Progress (CAP), which* [*found*](https://www.commondreams.org/news/trumprx-drug-discounts) *that the president’s prescription drug website offered genuinely lower prices on “exactly one” of the 54 medications listed.*

    *CAP also found that nearly one-third of the drugs available on the TrumpRx website have generic alternatives that were cheaper than what was being offered, and that the website made no mention of this.*

    what a healthcare plan.

  12. cant wait to tell my parents I didn’t fail those exams in high school.. the teacher just wasn’t calculating the percentage differently

    We all damn well know that there are some triple trump voters reading this and staying quiet on purpose.

    I need to hire him to go into court with me and appeal a DUI I got years ago… You can’t just calculate BAC in one way….

    The most powerful man in the world is an absolute goddamn moron who can’t do basic math and wants to nuke anyone who doesn’t agree with him, and everyone just nods and acts like it’s business as usual.

    I feel like I’m taking crazy pills. How is this real life?

  16. It shouldn’t take a mathematician to realize this. Any 4th grader studying fractions can grasp this

  17. starliteburnsbrite on

    Why doesn’t someone ask him to define “percent” and describe how the two ‘methods’ are different?

  18. Ah. The age old question: is RFK just fucking stupid, or strategically lying because he knows maga won’t understand?

  19. Trump does not read..does not know math…does not believe in science and can’t give a single quote from the Bible. And then there is the raping and felonies and the underage girls….plus Putin owns him and he wears a diaper.

  20. Next time when his cabinet needs medical treatment, let Trump do their pharmathutical math to measure the dosage. Maybe they will find their own way of cure.

    His way of calculating the age of consent is different than ours, that’s for sure.

    *He fucks children because he’s a criminal pedophile*
