It's like he keeps trying to cover-up fuckups with other fuckups. It's like an unending Gordian fuckknot.

It seems to have been working for him.
When was the last time you heard of the rape lawsuits or Stormy Daniels or the Epstein files.
His tactics of unrelenting insanity is how he has gotten this far. Why would he stop now?

It was just a couple of days ago that the E Jean Caroll story was back in the news, regarding trump running out of appeals and excuses around not paying her.

$5 million, by the way. Literal pocket change against the billions (that we know of) he's made through crypto alone.

Is that what we're calling orgies now?

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!

The reverse midas touch. Donald Trump's legacy will be the collapse of the United States.

Everything he touches dies, except for the reflecting pool- that's somehow blooming

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.

This is excellent insight, and I think you're correct.

It's probably more "China wants to grab Taiwan. What can I grab (besides someone's pussy)?"

The "Great American State Fair" bombed epically so it's time to drag this tired old corpse of what used to be a horse back out so we can beat it some more.

He thinks that’s a bargaining chip he can use. So stupid.

All the trigger troops from the nations of Europe who are allied with Denmark remain in place on Greenland. Fortification efforts continue.
