> [@Monty](#): > > You only think that because you forgot we’re talking about Traitor Trump. What he meant, of course, is “someone’s beating him very badly because that someone’s cheating and stealing yet another election”. I’d rephrase that to, “Dammit, someone’s beating us. Of course, they’re cheating; and we’re not cheating hard enough! Republicans! MAGAts! My people! Cheat more! Cheat harder!” > [@Superdude](#): > > Today, he’s upset me because one of his Xwitter followers post [this image](https://imgur.com/a/MSxwZyT) of him. Is that a Jon McNaughton?

Aside from the poor fashion choice of a suit becoming robes, there is a distinct bulge towards the end of the tie, at crotch level. So yes, I am going to agree with the idea of Jon McNaughton being the originator (I hesitate to say artist) of this piece - he is all too willing to fellate Trump. ETA: it is telling that the slate he carries is as blank as many of his photo-ops that have him signing a sheet of empty paper. ---

> [@iamatractorboy](#): > > He’s admitting that someone could be ‘beating him very badly’? I’m not really experienced at parsing his word salads (nor do I have much inclination to try), but I _think_ what he’s getting at is that President Biden is doing these horrible things because _he’s_ getting “badly beaten” by the America-hating fuckstick. (And that turnabout would be fair play. Any intimation that the America-hating fuckstick could be getting “badly beaten” by anyone is simply a theoretical notion that he intends to prevent anyway, through the use of prophylactic preemptive indictments.) ---

So he’s going to engage in the horrible illegal behavior the Democrats are imposing upon him because they did it first, and it happens to be the same horrible illegal behavior he was running on in his 2016 “Lock Her Up” campaign? And if his horrible behavior would make a candidate who was beating him badly in a campaign into a loser, what does that say about his own assessment of the current situation? That he’s being “beaten badly” by Biden now? Or that he’s beating Biden badly now? Or that Biden’s campaign to lock him up is destroying his chances as a viable candidate? I thought he was winning his current cases by a lot? I’m confused. Or is he confused? ---

> [@slicedalone](#): > > Or that he’s beating Biden badly now? It’s this one. The Trump Train is so unstoppable that only chicanery can upset the otherwise inevitable outcome. Just like in 2020, when he won 50 states and was still illegally denied the presidency. Any other word salad that seems to contradict this is a sign that the salad wasn’t tossed properly. Trump does not allow for or envision any universe where he doesn’t win every time. ---

OK, so if he’s currently beating Biden badly, and he’ll win the Presidency again easily, and then order the DoJ to drop all charges (or pardon himself for any Federal crimes he’s been wrongly convicted for), why should he need to indict Biden and other enemies? Isn’t Trump winning the Presidency in 2024 vindication enough, and proof that illegal horrible behavior backfires on the one who tries it? ---

And as long we’re on things Trump has uttered that don’t make sense to me, even on a level that’s sympathetic to Trump, what’s up with his constant mentions of Obama as his current or past opponent? Is this just a case of confusion or dementia? Or is it deliberate to rile up the racists in his base? Or is he trying to make some snide remarks about Biden’s presidency being secretly (and illegally, of course) run by Obama? Is “Obama” code for something? ---
