That one is not from Trump. At least not officially. I wonder how people get handled who try to grift in his name. Sued? A cut?

From the “every accusation is a confession” and “ironically non-self aware” departments, Trump had this to say about Graham Platner winning in Maine:

The Times analysis has comments from historians on the accuracy of the Trump summaries, which are hilarious. (The plaques mention _every_ time _any_ president implemented tariffs, as if to suggest that the Trump tariffs are a Good Thing.)

No mention of neutral thuggery. I think there’s an opportunity for him there.

After being reminded by Thelma Lou’s quote, I realize that Platner is also a low level thug.

If your child started spewing like this, you woulld be thinking about warning the authorities about a possible school shooting. Trump has always been a punk but now he’s a demented punk.

I have a similar reaction. But if Platner wins—then starts voting Trump’s way—expect Donald to be fairly lavish with his praise.

Anyway, to the question of how Donald has pissed me off today:

Why the hell does he keep saying “ **mutilization** ”???

[https://www.youtube.com/shorts/bJEeg1SANIc1](https://www.youtube.com/shorts/bJEeg1SANIc1)

Usually language changes involve _shortening_ words, not adding new syllables.

(I think he enjoys making people want to mutilize him.)
