      What’s wild is that he or his admin were claiming they had photo and/or video evidence of someone cutting the pool.

      More journalists need to ask him and his bootlicks why they lied about it earlier. And frame it that way: “if you are admitting you have no evidence now, why did you lie about that earlier?”

      Trump acknowledges he tried to ruin an Olympian’s a person’s life because he’s a shitty piss baby loser.

      Something that can be said literally every day.

      One common element of fascism is that problems, even problems that were obviously made by the fascists themselves, are opportunities to blame “others.”

      Usually, these others are a category of people who the fascists wish to victimize, but they can literally be anybody convenient, like in this case.

      Fascists will also even blame other fascists who supported them in the past. Just look at how often Trump blames and fires people who he appointed and who were only doing what he wanted them to do.

    Our nation is arguing with a delusional narcissist about who fucked up a pool job after his no-bid contract with a two-bit coatings company botched a cheaped-out installation. Besides being perfectly emblematic of the current state of our government, it forms a perfect distraction for both the president and the people from the dismantling of democracy.

    • The surveillance society and infrastructure is built.

    • The concentration camps are built.

    • The police state is built.

    It’s a race to see if they can cut out voting before Trump’s useful incompetence is exhausted.

      They botched it, but also the worst of the damage was where Trump drove his motorcade over it.

      And 2016 and 2024.

      No one argues it, only the pedophile argues his LOSS which means he rigged all of them, only 2020 failed for whatever reason.

    Has the pooper-in-chief ever admitted that he was wrong about anything? Has he ever explicitly said “I thought X but X turned out to be wrong?”
