The KING OF PROJECTION, the least self-aware adjudicated rapist felon on the PLANET, on Zelenskyy. MY BRAIN HURTS
Trump walked right up to the line of calling Volodomyr Zelenskyy a con man on Tuesday, comparing the Ukrainian president to one of history’s most famous hoax-peddlers.
In an interview with Politico, Trump compared the world leader to P.T. Barnum, the 19th-century showman who founded the Ringling Bros. circus.
“He’s a great salesman. I call him P.T. Barnum,” he said. “He could sell any product at any time…doesn’t matter whether it works or not.”

Furious MAGA Customers Say They Got ‘Scammed’ by Trump Watches
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/furious-maga-customers-say-they-got-scammed-by-trump-watches/ar-AA1OwRey
Some MAGA supporters who paid for Donald Trump watches are seriously ticked off. The majority of reviews for GetTrumpWatches on Trustpilot give the company just one star, with some people complaining that it is a “scam.”
The timepieces are made by TheBestWatchesonEarth LLC and range from $499 to $2,999 per watch, or $5,389 for the “Ultra Mega Collector Set.” The president has been criticized for hawking them on cable TV as a government shutdown drags on over healthcare funding.
A Daily Beast review of the site’s Trustpilot profile uncovers a string of poor reviews, with 57 percent of the 30 customers who have rated the watches at the time of publication giving the company just one star. Another 3 percent of reviewers gave it two stars. Trustpilot is one of the internet’s leading review sites, though the Daily Beast cannot independently verify the accuracy of the complaints.
The overall 2.8-star rating appears to suggest a record of over-promising and under-delivering. Reviews cite delays, non-arrivals, and ignored demands for refunds.
