"Many people call it Pennsylvania okay. Some call it Arizona, but many call it Pennsylvania too. Most say they don't even know what it's called but the ones who do, they call it Pennsylvania, okay? and you know that, and I know that and we know that, which is why nuclear, because my uncle, John trump, okay, and this guy was rough okay? Rough and tough, and BIG. okay big tears in his eyes and he says, "ummm Mr trump sir... Ummm ummm". But you can't do that anymore right, they don't let you, but that had, they called it Wharton business school. And you need to know business, you need to know DEALS okay, and they say, I mean you hear this, you hear many people saying this, that, "trump does deals". And the greats say it, you see orban, and they call him strong okay, I'm strong, she's not strong okay, golf it's heavy, you can't just do golf if you're a lady and you know that. But yeah, lady marmalade was what me and Jeff called this one girl, and she was.... I mean, you could do it in those days, and they'd let you and you did it and we all did it and it was great. And that's why okay, that's and you see the shirts and they say it, MAGA okay, MAGA, and it says "make an elephant grapes again" and that's really it. But the whole thing is just a hoax okay, and Hunter Biden did Hillary emails and it's, of course it is right? And it's sleepy joe ON STEROIDS we call it, and where is he now? You don't see him anymore, it's like he's not even running for president, but that's why I think Tim Waltz is gonna be the future vice president."
I make it a point to not actually listen to Trump if at all possible, but I have to know. Is he a "nuclear" guy or a "nukular" guy?
No he pronounces nuclear correctly, like that one time he said "my nuclear button is much bigger than his" about Kim Jong Un on national television marking the first public threat of nuclear war by the US in decades. Ah, the old days were fun. /s
I tried to find a video of this on youtube, which I could not. I did however find a video of him making the same mistake 3 weeks ago in Pennsylvania, this time confusing it with North Carolina 🙄
https://www.youtube.com/live/9nfm-6_8mWg?feature=shared&t=14414 time code is in the link but its at 4:00:30 if it doesn't follow
Not sure really if its a gaffe or he just thinks he's talking to a national audience at these, either way what he says is stupid
Gotta admit that made it even more funnier
there was only a 2% chance to be correct, don't bash on him with such low odds!
Were he able to read he could have had the place names on a card or autocue
Were he able to keep competent staff that cars or autocue might even be correct and updated since the previous stop
“Hellllooooooo Saint Loooouiiiiiiis!”
“Uh, it’s Springfield, Steven.”
“Oh. Yeah, right. Are You Ready To Rock?!”
Are You Ready To Rock?!
"Not yet! Give us a few more minutes!"
what does texting Trump to 88022 do? Is that like one of those 90s sex lines?
Realistically, it most likely signs you up for a deluge of spam texts about donations and the like to trump
I get that shit already, and I've never texted any of these 5 digit numbers lol. They seem to come in waves (like I'll go months without getting any, then get them nearly daily for a few weeks, then quiet again), I've blocked so many numbers...
they are so obnoxious, my grandfather's phone is filled to the brim with them, I have never seen a campaign send as many fucking spam texts as his campaign does it is ridiculous, my grandfather is hard blue and they are just relentless with the "Trump demands your support now!" and "DONATE TO THE CAUSE, DON'T LET THE LEFTIST HARRIS RUIN DEMOCRACY" it's so fucking annoying, you can't even opt out as they just blatantly ignore it. He gets more red based texts then blue lmao
I already get those without having dialed anything
Might directly charge your carrier for $5 to his campaign
Would you like to buy Chinese dropshipped garbage, but in the most brilliant golden tones and for quadruple the price you'd see it on aliexpress? Then Text that number
How does he propose to "MAKE HOUSING AFFORDABLE AGAIN"? By interfering with the free market lol?
Look at that banner desperately trying to make the shooting relevant again, as if the country doesn't have more extreme shootings every day.
Trump shootings are just a fact of life, we have to get over it.
Yes. I'm afraid all I can offer are some thoughts and prayers.
Now now, the poor man got a nick on his ear that healed within days and left no scar. He was lucky to survive an injury that gruesome.
imagine if he wins and he is president when he is 82 years old...
Noooooo thank you
He does get confused and spews nonsense a lot, but I don't think this is an instance of that. When you're campaigning nationally and quickly hop between states (sometimes visiting two on the sane day), you might mix two places up. Trump is not the first politician this happened to.
It's true he isn't the first politician but he is the first politician/felon/insurrectionists/adulterer/conspiracy theorist/rapist/pedophile.
Too many states for this Reds lover to remember
This used to be a fun community but now it's flooded by politics...
Have you heard of Twitter before? And beyond this being expected, I'll never understand people who want to go through life with blinders on
Blinders? Really??
It doesn't matter what a candidate says at some rally somewhere, what matters is who wins the election.
Following politics right now isn't productive, because it's just a bunch of mud-slinging both directions. In this case, this "gaffe" isn't a gaffe, it's just him talking about events in different parts of the country to make a broader point about immigration. The discourse we have shouldn't be about trying to make Trump look like he has dementia (doesn't seem like it?), but showing how his policies are absolutely ridiculous. In this case, he said a small town in Pennsylvania had a 2000% increase in immigration, which sounds like instead of having 1 person come to town, they had 20. Or more likely, instead of having an average of 1 person every 10 years, they had 2 people in one year. We should be calling out that BS, not making up stories about him forgetting where he is, that's not productive at all.
Maybe have a bi-weekly post about current poll numbers and any interesting policy statements. But boosting posts that take statements out of context to pat our own backs is stupid.
Its called whitepeopletwitter... Politics is all that the name could entail.
Memes follow hot topics. Election is a hot topic. Nothing more to it really. Alt theory: One dude does well with, "Trump bad", everyone else decides to give the people what they want because muh meaningless internet points.
