1. Funny, yeah, but we'll never live down this global humilation...

Uggh. How I wished it had been the ONION.

[barbtries]

28. pretty sure it's satire.

there was another one on BlueSky. All caps so it took a minute to realize it was a parody.

i think it is true that he has people calling the press in a panic saying stop saying that!

[Random Boomer]

109. Trump didn't write that, it's too well-written and not enough ALL CAPS!!!

So it's either parody or some PR guy drafted it and punched it in to Trump's phone.

[Bluetus]

129. Absolutely the case

And I doubt that he had a staffer write that on his behalf.

But it doesn't really matter, because the fact is that Trump is busy lining up tribute payments via his inauguration ball fund while Musk is doing the Capitol Hill thing that Presidents usually do. Everybody can see that Musk is performing as if President, so that's gonna stick until Trump does something Presidential.

[Bird Lady]

133. do you think Musk wrote it?

because if 45 wrote it, it would be gobbledegook. I wonder if his tweets will become more coherent and not in caps, which is a dead giveaway he had nothing to do with it.
The thing I like the best is the more we call musky president the more 45 screams.

[Ocelot II]

2. This doesn't seem like his writing style - no random capitalization,

basically correct grammar. I think it's by someone other than Trump, designed to piss off Musk and stir the pot some more.

[Diamond_Dog]

7. I thought the same thing.

[Mister Ed]

9. Of that I'm certain. n/t

[skylucy]

21. I thought the same thing as soon as I started reading it. No way Trump wrote this himself.

[Katinfl]

25. You are right.

This is nothing like his usual rants. This one actual makes sense and ets the point across.

[BidenRocks]

98. No typos!

This guy has a sense of humor.
We are disrespectful?
That is funny.

[LogicFirst]

44. I agree. It's not Trump's irrational style.

[boonecreek]

48. Same here

it's way too coherent.

[Hekate]

76. I think you are right -- it just isn't Trump's style

On the other hand, if this is indicative of the TechBro Honeymoon falling apart — I say, cheers.

[JT45242]

78. Seems like one of the aides with a password...happens sporadically

If a tweet/x/ etc comes about between 10 pm and 8 am. It is likely mango Mussolini and his bitty sausage fingers misspelling things.

If it is grammatically correct between 8 am and 8 pm, it us one of the people in PR with the password.

[Trueblue Texan]

100. Yeah, I thought the same...

It's just too well-written to be Vice President Trump's.

[Ray Bruns]

127. That's because he didn't write it. All the words are spelled correctly.

[Dennis Donovan]

3. I hate to be the bearer of bad news...

...but the Trump Truth Social post isn't real.

[MadameButterfly]

8. OK, I was going to ask because it sounded like the Onion

to me. But how do you know it isn't real?

[Dennis Donovan]

19. I went to TS and there's no sign of it on his timeline. n/t

[Amaryllis]

26. Becasue it uses complete sentences and correct grammar. It's way too well written.

[MadameButterfly]

42. It didn't quite soundlike him

More like what we think he'd like to say.
So can anyone just make up a tweet and pretend it's from someone else?
I'm not on Twitter, excuse my ignorance

[Ocelot II]

10. I suspected as much. Not enough bad grammar and punctuation.

[Katinfl]

27. Duped again!

[hlthe2b]

43. Actually, I think that is good news. He humiliates us every moment of the day, so one that is fake...

I'll take it.

[Dem4life1970]

52. Yes, I plugged my nose and checked too....his latest posts are full of Herschel Walker type appointee announcements

[Renew Deal]

96. The biggest giveaway...it was too well written

And the whole "my vision" thing. Trump doesn't talk like that.

[LeftInTX]

99. Thanks for going to the dark side!

[Bobstandard]

136. So what? Repost everywhere!

Send it to your MAGA acquaintances. They’ll believe anything they see on the internet. The more bullshit they consume, the better.

the difference between trump and a lannister?

"a lannister always pays his debts."

[HereForTheParty]

6. It's fake nm

[J-9]

11. Totally not his writjng style

right from the first sentence.

But we know he feels it, l Iol.

[dweller]

12. Ya sure there Sparky ??

✌🏻

[Aussie105]

35. The extra con sauce is what appeals to some.

Raised on a Pedestal of Worship, because he is richer, smarter and more powerful than some, they lap up the con sauce that oozes from every pore of his body.
Every word of his word salads is drenched in it.
They lap it up, cultism at work!

Others taste it and go 'yeah nah!'

Fake post, but whatever.

[3catwoman3]

103. "...the con sauce that oozes from every pore of his body."

I think it is oozing from a single, larger orifice.

[SWBTATTReg]

36. I love this! Very appropriate and to the point. I'm going to grab a copy of this, and save it!! Thanks for providing.

[calimary]

117. I just saved a copy of it, too.

Good stuff, well worth remembering, as we enter the second round of that orange guy in the White House.

[tanyev]

13. *snort* I am the very model of an aspiring generalissimo!

[Maeve]

14. You know, it almost doesn't matter if it's fake

Getting that narrative out, that Muskrat is in charge and tsf is pissed, will drive the wedge further between them and make tsf crazier.
Yeah, it's too coherent to be real!

[Irish_Dem]

67. I agree, this fake message will irritate both of them, maybe ramp up the trouble.

[calimary]

116. We could save time and space and just refer to the Donald as "Vice".

Gotta admit I do like the sound of it!

[Irish_Dem]

122. That sure fits.

Trump loves all kinds of vice.

[flamingdem]

15. Delish!

Trump is Musk's (rhyme with stitch). Haw!

[patphil]

16. I wonder if he got President Musk's permission to post that.

[LiberaBlueDem]

17. No you are not

musk runs things and you had you first defeat

[edbermac]

18. I thought Big Vlad was Prez?

[DBoon]

20. If real, this belongs aside "I am not a crook"

[Iggo]

22. Something about protesting too much or something.

[The Madcap]

23. The real tell

IS IT'S NOT IN ALL CAPS!!!!!

[Demovictory9]

24. Is that tweet real?

[pfitz59]

29. Trumplethinskin tweets.

Keep it up folks. Laugh until your belly hurts. We've struck a nerve.

[question everything]

30. Is this for real? Twitting at Musk's home?

[Cheezoholic]

31. This isn't his America n/t

[rubbersole]

32. Fake and funny.

He's not seen the worst of it yet. Thin skin covering a shallow insecure ego is a bad combination for a putin puppet. He is supposed to follow orders like a good little soldier. Not start thinking he's in charge of anything.

[GreenWave]

33. Wow! Grocery store price no knocker downerer has finally spoken.

[Takket]

34. keep it up........ the Resistance is working.

[WarGamer]

37. unrec for propagandizing fellow DU'ers...

no bueno.

[Figarosmom]

38. Ha

Musk will be gone soon

[SWBTATTReg]

39. It was bound to happen...two outsized egos, clashing against each other already. Who in their right minds would

have thought?

Delicious!

[madamesilverspurs]

40. He accuses the media and us of being disrespectful???

And when was the first, last, or any time he respected ANYONE ever?


.

[alarimer]

41. Neither of them are, actually.

He has not been inaugurated yet.

But we should keep calling Elon Mr. President. It will eventually get under his skin.

[krkaufman]

45. ghost-tweeted

clearly not him; absence of ALL CAPS is a tell.

[Johonny]

46. Sure Jan

When you have to use Musk's app to announce your balls don't belong to him, your balls belong to him.

[JoseBalow]

47. NO PUPPET! NO PUPPET!

[paleotn]

50. Here it comes.

I knew those two egos couldn't exist at the same point in space time without a cataclysmic explosion. Should be fun to watch.

[3Hotdogs]

51. He's the president?

Where did he ever get that idea?

[Jacson6]

53. What is the Next stop for Elon Musk? A Texas concentration Camp for deportees?

Just askin...

[Fiddlelady11]

54. Humpy dump

Is so easily stampeded. LoL!

56. Elon's really running the show

[lindysalsagal]

57. "The Art Of The "I'm The King Of The Hill"

If he were the powerful man he claims to be, he wouldn't be having to remind us he won. Idiot.

[C_U_L8R]

58. Of course you are

[Baitball Blogger]

60. Is this from a parody account?

[AloeVera]

61. He wouldn't write this.

It's not the grammar, caps or writing style.

He wouldn't write this because he wouldn't give the "insult" any oxygen. He knows it would make him look weak. He may be dumb as a rock on the substantive things, but he has a sly political instinct. Like all con artists, he knows the game and how to play it. Sadly for us.

[doc03]

62. He didn't write that it isn't in all caps and not his usual random

word salad.

[czarjak]

63. I R Prez

U R not! Butt Heads butt.

[kacekwl]

64. I do not care

if trump wrote it or not keep it up because it has to make him nuts. Ketchup will fly soon.

[magicarpet]

65. Well,.. that settles it,...

Djt is the Generalissimo President'e Fuhrer,...

Eloon is the coffee-boy,... er ah,...Diet Coke waitress/butler.

[jeffreyi]

66. Oooooh, trial separation?

Who gets the kids and the family dishes?

[AntiFascist]

68. Correct, Musk is the "Incoming President", he wasn't elected n/t

[Karasu]

69. It's only a matter of time until he snaps and actually does write a post like this. LOL

[Mblaze]

70. It is illegal for a person who has a contract with our government to donate to any candidate in a Federal election.

Trump is admitting to Musk's crimes. Trumpism is Mafia but with less integrity. FEC - DOJ where are you? Our country turns its lonely eyes to you.

[DFW]

71. The mere fact that he felt he had to respond

Indication enough how deeply the whole thing stings him.

[TrollBuster9090]

72. Obviously Written By A STAFFER, Who's Trying To Immitate Trump's 'Writing' Style.

He was obviously too upset to write it himself, and ordered some staff lapdog to write it.

Not written at 3am, as his medications are wearing off. No endless, run-on sentences, no second grade vocabulary, no ALL CAPS, ridiculous 'smocking gun' spelling errors, and no neurotic !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! explanation points.

Pretty pathetic if you ask me.

[PurgedVoter]

73. Elon Told Him to Say This!

Everyone knows that *rump would never post that long a rant without creative grammar and at least some of it in all caps. This is so obvious, Elon dictated this.

[ColinC]

74. Lol its time he prove hes not Musk's little bitch

Bet he can't

[NotHardly]

75. "A hit dog will holler"

“A hit dog will holler” is that those offended by a certain idea or statement will be the ones most likely to react defensively or even aggressively to it. The loudest objections often signal personal guilt or discomfort, suggesting the comment has struck
From... https://linguaholic.com/linguablog/a-hit-dog-will-holler/a nerve.

[allegorical oracle]

77. This is too funny to be real. Wish it was real. But don't think it is. nt

[NH Ethylene]

79. I don't think Trump has the cojones to tell Must to 'stay in his lane'

He's intimidated by Musk.

[Emile]

80. Suck it up Orange Man, you are bought and paid for.

[calimary]

81. That makes you look pretty doggone pathetic, donnie-boy.

[underpants]

83. He even says that Elon seems to have forgotten HE's in charge

Gawd. Talk about admitting what everyone’s been saying.

[Dan]

82. We know this is fake not from real Donald Trump because it didn't

Come from FOX entertainment news. This should be ignored.

When President Musk sends out a message it will be via FOX and VP Trump will approve of it, as will third-in-command Vance.

[keithbvadu2]

85. Real or not, this 'tweet' certainly goes along with the President Musk meme.

[republianmushroom]

86. Suck in up 'INSUFFICIENT', coffveee boy.

[IzzaNuDay]

88. Hey DonOLD -- We are not going to stop saying

President Musk! 😂😂😂
Suck it up dotard!

[Lucky Luciano]

89. There is no way he wrote this.

Sentences are at a 7th grade level. He doesn’t write that well.

[Crunchy Frog]

90. That HAS to be satire. nt

91. Love how he shows respect

to President Biden - no he doesn't. He is issuing edicts while we have a President Biden. Respect is not a word that should ever come out of that cretin's mouth.

[ananda]

92. Trump did not write that. Those are his sentiments...

138. 'He's weak': Trump comment said to show one Dem attack is 'getting under his skin'

trump is really worried about Musk being more popular that he is. The use of President-Elect Musk is really pissing off trump

— Raw Story (@rawstory.com) 2024-12-22T20:57:50.872Z

https://www.rawstory.com/trump-weak-musk-skin/

Donald Trump made a statement on Sunday that many critics interpreted as exhibiting his weakness.

President-elect Donald Trump used a speech to MAGA supporters to strongly push back on claims that billionaire Elon Musk had effectively taken over his presidency. While speaking to Turning Point USA's AmFest conference attendees on Sunday, Trump argued that "big companies" wanted him to cut regulations more than slashing taxes.

"But no, he's not going to be president that I can tell you," Trump also insisted. "And I'm safe. You know why? He can't be. He wasn’t born in this country."

This comment went viral, with Scott Dworkin, the Co-Founder and Executive Director of The Democratic Coalition, saying, "This confirms that Musk is the President-Elect."

Popular satire account Mrs. Betty Bowers replied with, "This is great for two reasons: (1) it shows that all this President Musk talk is getting under Donald’s notoriously thin skin; and (2) it has to be very insulting to JD Vance."

139. It's fake news, Trump never said that

Notice how they didn't provide a link to the alleged Truth Social post? Because it doesn't exist.
