          That’s probably the idea with the big beautiful bill and AI shit - make an AI version of King Trump to allow his glorious rule to continue after he dies.

    Trump is what happens when you start believing your own propaganda, and think you can order leaders of sovereign countries around because you’re “the leader of the free world”.

        I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re refering to as sum, is in fact, GNU/sum, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus sum.

    And yet, everytime he claims something, some stupid shit head believes it.

    I jokingly said, “Man, I’m loving this $1.98 gas” at work, and some fuck face agreed with a, “Ain’t it nice”.

    Gas is at least $2.74 in a sixty mile radius around my town.

        You know, honestly, he could score a win if he used real had prices. 2.70 here ain’t bad and some places have 2.49.

        If he legit said, hey, gas prices are floating around $2.50, he could score points. But no, dummy had to exaggerate it to a redonk price.

        Just did the conversation. UK is roughly $7.50 per gallon (£1.42/liter). I’ve seen it up near $10 in some places.

            Oh, they are working on fixing that. Our public transport was “privatised” a few decades back. It’s a shadow of what it used to be. A few places have improved, but it’s often local efforts.

            Walkability is a godsend however. Interestingly, Milton Keynes proves you can have the best of both worlds. It has a robust road network. However, the red routes mean you can get most places with minimal road crossings. Either on food, bike, or e-scooter.

      2.74 USD / gal. is equivalent to 0.99 CAD / L

      Anything below 1.50 CAD / L is considered cheap where I live. I’m jealous of your gas prices

          TACO was specifically something that came about because of him repeatedly caving in on tariffs. I think someone in the media eventually said Trump Always Chickens Out and they ran with it.

      Welcome to the future. I actually thought he was tangentially involved too.

      No sane person can keep up with verifying news anymore. Most people’s feeds are pretty bad, and that’s the point! He literally burned out fact-checkers and journalists (and numbed minds to them) last term.

      https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/politics-news/four-more-exhausting-years-trump-reporters-mull-covering-a-second-term-1292213/

      As he did on Wall Street before he got into politics:

      Might be better if social media changes, but… we basically elected Big Tech:

        I would also point out that there’s been multiple organizations that verify and fact check.

      I could easily see him doing a deal similar to the one in “The fall of the house of Usher”

    He just wants everyone to think he’s actually working.
