    Every time Trump makes a tweet, I cannot gauge whether it’s fake or real. How can a nation elect something like that?

    Jesus fuckin christ, it’s like a child wrote it. I was sure this was fake, it had to be fake. I just wish it was fake.

    Holy fuck, he really IS declining fast. The language in this post is even dumber and more childlike than normal. We gotta get this fucker out of the WH.

    I’d like to see Trump fight. It’d be funny.

    "I know fighting. NOBODY knows more about fighting than me. I was at the MMZ the other night. Big guys came up to me, tears in their eyes, “MR PRESIDENT, can you give me some advice for my next fight?”

    “Don’t get in the octagone with everybody’s favourite president”, I told him. I meant it as a joke. I do that self-depreciating humour, because I’m so humble. Lot of people don’t think I am, but I am. I don’t like to brag, but I’m the best at self-depreciting. Believe me. Believe me.

    Anyway, you could tell from the fear in his eyes he thought I was serious. Which is okay. If I was there, it would be MY ring. I wouldn’t want to be in my ring with me either".

    *Women are actually pretty happy that I’ve decided to finally treat them with respect. I’m doing it for them, sure — but also for myself, and honestly for society as a whole. This kind of situation won’t happen again. They’ve basically agreed to respond better to me now that I’m acting different. I mean, when I show up, they’ll probably appreciate it — maybe not say it outright, but you can tell.

    We’re working together now, in a smarter way, and it’s going really well! Isn’t that better than all the conflict and rejection??? BUT REMEMBER, I could go back to how things were before if I wanted to — I just don’t, because I’m choosing the better path now.*

    That’s not from Trump. While it uses his phrasing, sort of, the whole thing stays on one point and is generally cohesive.

      Giveaway for me was he didn’t sign off on a topic like this with a “Thank you for your attention to this matter”. But maybe he doesn’t like us giving attention to these matters. Who knows.

        His team can post on his behalf. It might be posted on his account by someone else.

          Sure, and if you want to argue “a staffer did it”, then “staying on point”/“generally cohesive” is a stretch to make the argument work. This has extremely jumpy flow, and trying to move the standard further back and say “bUt NoT fOr TrUmP” just turns this whole thing into an unfalsifiable hypothesis facilitated by an infinitely movable goalpost. I can point out why it’s so jumpy (any literate person should be able to), but I’m confident it’ll be met with, again, “tRuMp StAnDaRdS tHo!!”.


          Edit: More importantly, though, saying confidently that “it’s not from Trump” is hilariously unfounded. I’m not arguing it is or is not from Trump, but rather that saying anything definitively like that is absurd.

          This is so dumb, he can make an account for each staffer that wants to post so we can see who is posting what garbage.

          Without a clear indication of who is posting he is likely violating the law in regards to record retention.

          I believe that, in which case “that’s not from Trump” is something they’re in no position to say matter-of-factly; they’re just guessing (and I think poorly, at that). It’s just palm-reading the post and then giving a definitive, with no caveats, “Nope, Trump didn’t write this.”

          I linked to the article because trying to definitively say Trump didn’t write something definitionally has to be reserved for fake posts, not real ones that come from his account with no disclaimer and no later admission.
