*This is the political version of shooting someone in the middle of the street and getting away with it, and Trump will get away with it. The MAGA morons who are suffering for him, (and making the sane among us suffer as well), and celebrate his grifting, will not even give it a notice. The Republican sycophants in Congress aren’t even worth mentioning.*
“Not even a little bit,” Trump said, shockingly out of touch even for him. “The only thing that matters when I’m talking about Iran is they can’t have a nuclear weapon. I don’t think about Americans’ financial situation, I don’t think about anybody. I think about one thing: We cannot let Iran have a nuclear weapon. That’s all. That’s the only thing that motivates me.”
“ABC News’s Karen Travers asked Trump to clarify his comments and he doubled down.”
““What about the pressure on Americans in crisis right now? What they’re paying for food—”
“Every American understands…. They just had a poll, like 85 percent…. They understand that Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon. If Iran has a nuclear weapon the whole world would be in trouble. Because they happen to be crazy,” Trump [said](https://x.com/Acyn/status/2054263747204858225?s=20). “When it’s over, you’re gonna have a massive drop in the price of oil…. Oil is gonna drop, the stock market’s gonna go through the roof, and truly I think we’re in the golden age right now.”
How can anyone read this and think yep! That’s the guy I’m voting for!

No way eh? I mean who is surprised? When someone shows you by their actions they don’t care, you certainly don’t need a verbal affirmation.

He’s Beyond narcissistic, beyond sociopathic. Just him, only him, always been that way. MAGAs are a bunch of dumbfucks for the “he’s just like one of us” bullshit. They love the racism/bigotry/misogyny and they fucked the rest of us for it.

His only consideration is if his actions will keep Netanyahu from putting his blackmail material out or not.

Saw that live earlier, probably already being turned into ads. Speak your truth Donald.

People’s finances aren’t his finances so he doesn’t give a shit.
I’d wonder what his supporters think of this but I assume they would just say Trump’s playing 5D chess and that he’s a military genius. I’m convinced he could light their houses on fire and they would just salute him with tears in their eyes.

He’s finally admitting what we’ve always known about him – but his cult-base would still gladly pay 20 bucks per/gal. of gas as long as they get the satisfaction of knowing those they hate also have to pay that much ..

But, he does care about your healthcare.
That’s why he’s kicked 15 million of you MAGA Fuckwaffles off your healthcare.

Well shit, he can tell the truth.

Midterm advertising gold.
Every Republican running for re-election will have to answer for it, and there’s no way to explain it away.

Baffling how the roughly 30% of people still worship this disgusting piece is traitorous crap

I’m convinced he’s the anti-christ but the twist is when the rapture comes his supporters are the idiots that won’t get to go to that chuck e cheese in the sky
Freddy-Borden on
Yea because he’s a legitimate sociopath that only cares about himself. Thanks for making him President, MAGA. At least all the billionaires will become trillionaires while we all get more and more poor, right MAGA! Winning!!!

And this will continue because Congress and the Supreme Court are so inept/corrupt they allow/want this to happen.
There is nothing good happening in American politics, and those who should be punished are being rewarded, while those who suffer, suffer more. Our children see this and it becomes the norm.
If nothing is done to remove Trump from office and impeach the “justices” that keep shitting on the constitution, we won’t have another election…we will have a World War because there is a pants shitting, rapist, criminal tearing down EVERYTHING, because he knows the drugs will stop working soon.

Is this somehow new to people? He’s never given a crap about anyone his entire life.

Now that Trump doesn’t care his supporters swear paying $90 for 20 gallons of gas is “all worth it.” Without knowing what “it” is.

His administration also says if you’re against them. They will find you and kill you… how is that sitting with you all?

I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot 77.3 million people, and I wouldn’t lose any voters, OK?

He says we’re in another golden age. Anyone who is not a robber baron doesn’t want this.

Of course, he doesn’t. Anyone thinking he did is an idiot.

“When you’re negotiating with Iran, Mr. President, to what extent are Americans’ financial situations motivating you to make a deal?” a reporter [asked](https://x.com/Acyn/status/2054262313788768765) Trump before he left for China on Tuesday, alluding to the [skyrocketing](http://newrepublic.com/post/210299/inflation-trump-approval-economy) inflation caused by the fallout from the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran and Lebanon.”
“Not even a little bit,” Trump said, shockingly out of touch even for him. “The only thing that matters when I’m talking about Iran is they can’t have a nuclear weapon. I don’t think about Americans’ financial situation, I don’t think about anybody. I think about one thing: We cannot let Iran have a nuclear weapon. That’s all.

“As of May 12, nearly [every](https://www.natesilver.net/p/iran-war-polls-popularity-approval) %5Bpoll%5D(https://www.reuters.com/world/us/americans-dont-think-trump-has-explained-iran-war-goals-reutersipsos-poll-shows-2026-05-11/) shows that the majority of Americans oppose the war on Iran.”
Yeah, no shit.
Color me shocked.
