    Okay, what’s he trying to distract everyone from now?

    The midterms? The reflection pool? The Iran War? The Albania scandal? The Epstein files? ICE round-up? ICE concentration camps? Mitch McConnell being dead or nearly dead? The World Cup scandal? Something new we haven’t heard about yet?

    There are so many fuck-ups to choose from!

      Why do people keep saying he’s trying to distract us all? It’s not like yanks will do anything about any of his scandals even if he admits to all of it. It’s just a series of blunders or straight up evil deeds one after the other because he can get away with it.

        yes we have a party here that breaks the law including the core law of the land and further does not act to stop the behavior of its members. Them winning any election at this point is a straight out crime by those voting for them and everyone else should be protesting at least once a month. I get family and jobs but once a month is doable. If any of the protests had even 10% of the poluation that would be over 30 million people. Granted no kings have been millions and given children and elderly that is close but people need to do it once a month and keep at it.

      Its never been about distraction. They believe all of it. They are trying to do it all at once all of the time. So everything is kinda a distraction from everything else but its all serious and on purpose at the same time.

      He does it when he’s in a war of words with countries he feels threatened by.

      So last time he was doing this, he was in a war of words with China. Now he’s doing it over Iran.

      It’s his way of basically saying “Well my words to you can’t be THAT serious or important, because look, I’m saying more serious things about invading Greenland”.

      This is an idea/tactic a child or angry teen would come up with, but appears to be what he’s doing.
