On Thursday morning, the president lost his temper on Truth Social.
The Iranian negotiators are very different and strange. They are begging us to make a deal, which they should be doing since they have been militarily obliterated, with zero chance of a comeback, and yet they publicly state that they are only looking at our proposal. WRONG!!! They better get serious soon, before it is too late, because once that happens, there is NO TURNING BACK, and it wont be pretty! President DJT, he wrote.
That came just moments after he snarled, NATO NATIONS HAVE DONE ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO HELP WITH THE LUNATIC NATION, NOW MILITARILY DECIMATED, OF IRAN. THE U.S.A. NEEDS NOTHING FROM NATO, BUT NEVER FORGET THIS VERY IMPORTANT POINT IN TIME! President DONALD J. TRUMP

Social media users have been sharing an image online that claims to show a quote by Mary Anne Trump, President Donald Trump's mother. The quote reads: "Yes, he's an idiot with zero common sense, and no social skills, but he IS my son. I just hope he never goes into politics. He'd be a disaster." ( here )
This claim is unsubstantiated. Reuters could not find any evidence that Mary Anne Trump (whose maiden name was Mary Anne MacLeod) said anything like this. The image does not give any date or source.
Reuters found no evidence attributing this quote to Trumps mother. It is likely that had MacLeod said this, there would be some record or commentary in media reports at the time or it would have been dug up prior to his 2016 presidential run.
The closest comment Trumps mother made about her son that Reuters was able to find comes from a 1990 issue of Vanity Fair. Around the late 1980s, Mary Anne MacLeod allegedly said to Trumps first wife Ivana: "What kind of a son have I created?" ( here ).

Miles Archer
(23,365 posts)He can't shut up when it comes to badmouthing and attempting to shame our allies.
He's trying to run the same game on them that he runs on lackeys and opponents in the USA.
He goads them, publicly shames them, floats some kind of vague threat, and they always fall in line.
NOT SO outside of the USA. His "charm offensive" is failing miserably.

Miles Archer
(23,365 posts)HE most likely sees it as turning on the charm, or maybe he just revels in his ability to be a bully and get away with it.
In the USA, that is. Not so much on the global stage.
He stepped in the shit on purpose. For most folks, it's accidental, lol.

(64,356 posts)with little connection to reality. He's an internet troll, and trying to run international "diplomacy" like he ran his business life. Problem is, there is no court to run to while he's leveraging American treasure and blood for his schemes. He's neck deep in shit and pulling the country down with him.
The Founding Fathers made it too difficult to remove a fucked up president. Amendment 25 didn't help much. It's an alternate path to removal, but it depends on those who are making bank off of trump's dysfunction.

(422 posts)When he comes on TV the first thing I do is the remote and the mute button. If he stays on too long, I change channels. If that does not work, I turn the TV off.
I refuse to hear anything he has to say because it's worthless and has no value.
