He was doing some masterful weaving. Are the eight circles Biblical in nature? Like from The Apocalypse or the Book of Revelations?
Maybe the reference is to Dante’s “Nine Circles of Hell:”
Think about it:
- With Trump, every accusation is actually a confession
- It’s a book. Trump can’t/doesn’t read
- It’s a number less than ten – something exceedingly difficult for Trump to get right
List of the Circles
Circle one: Limbo, where pagans who were good people go
Circle two: Lust
Circle three: Gluttony
Circle four: Greed
Circle five: Wrath
Circle six: Heresy
Circle seven: Violence
Circle eight: Fraud
Circle nine: Treachery
“They wanna do things like no more cows”
He’s talking about the social distancing circles Biden had on floors at events during the 2020 campaign. You know, when Biden was being socially responsible. Something Trump didn’t give two shits about (as Herman Cain and other found out). Trump believes that Biden couldn’t fill those circles with people so therefore he did not win the election. It’s another case of him hanging onto perceived slights forever and definitely weird.
I’m pretty sure the “circles” thing was in relation to the social distancing circles at the few Biden events in 2020. And he’s claiming that there weren’t even enough supporters to fill them, and that the Biden campaign had to fill them with press members. And yet somehow Biden won.
Basically it’s just another variant on his usual crowd size shtick.
I realize this isn’t what he (presumably) meant, but: if he gets in, who’d be surprised if he decided, after he declares himself President-for-Life, to let all fifty states “honor” him by changing their names? You know, perfectly voluntarily, out of their immense and eternal love for him?
So Pennsylvania becomes Trumpsylvania. Massachusetts becomes Trumpsachusetts. Oregon becomes Trumpegon. Montana becomes Trumptana. And so on.
Some of the states present a bit of a problem, of course. If you make Kansas into Trumpsas, then do you make Arkansas into ArTrumpsas? It’s a puzzle over which, I expect, he’ll enjoy a good ponder.
“I would love to hear from the father… nobody ever talks about the father. If it was me they’d be talking about, let’s go and interview the father. Nobody. Did you ever hear the mainstream media said, let’s talk to her father?”

From Superman 1978, Lex is looking at a map of California-
Lex Luthor : Bye-bye, California. HELLO, new West Coast. My West Coast.
[Otis ducks down and overlays map with new map]
Lex Luthor : [reading from map] “Costa del Lex”, “Luthorville”, “Marina del Lex”, “Otisburg”…
Trumporado, Trumpinois, Trumpraska?
Wy-o-Trumping?
“I will very quickly defleet. We are going to take inflation. And we are going to deflate it. We are going to deflate inflation. We are going to defeat inflation”
“Kamala gets four more years, the entire country will become like the migrant camp of LA and San Francisco… Look, it’s Abraham Lincoln, Abraham Lincoln, stand up. Whoa!”
“How do you like the vice president? She picked? Look, you know, we used to have the greatest Abraham Lincoln. George— Now, look at this stuff. Can you believe what we’re doing?”
“You can have a brand new, beautiful computer… And in about two weeks, it’s obsolete. But wheels and walls never get obsolete”
Some of these names are just Trump-l’œil.
Why stop at state names? Cities, mountains, rivers, schools, waste disposal facilities, sewage treatment centres, universities, churches, tar pits, swamps, lakes, migrant detention facilities, airports and research chairs in dealmaking are all obvious targets for rebranding after The Donald and his family.
DJT airport seems to be unassigned.
Melaniapolis? Ivankaho?
Has he been replaced by a lesser Abraham Lincoln? I watch and read news all day but I somehow missed out on this one. Did someone build a time machine for this specific purpose?
The only meaning I can possibly parse out of this is that he thinks Lincoln has somehow been cancelled. Maybe Trump watched Civil War, saw that part where troops fire a rocket at the Lincoln Memorial and thought it was a documentary.
Why stop at names? Maybe he’ll go full Mussolini and change the calendar.
Except that Trump has never threatened this, except to change the name of Fort Liberty back to Fort Bragg.
I think there is more than enough to criticize him for without need to speculate regarding actions he may take despite having never threatened them.
And you just know Trump was disappointed that Iron Man didn’t show up.
It wouldn’t surprise me that Trump idolizes Tony Stark; after all, in The Avengers, Stark describes himself as “genius, billionaire, playboy, philanthropist.” Trump clearly sees himself as the first three of those four words.
And he’ll label himself the last because it sounds good.
As I recall, Lex disallowed that one.
Hackman’s Luthor had a lot in common with Donald, ‘hair issues’ being one of them. Of course Luthor had about 9,999,999,999,999,999,999 times Donald’s brainpower.
See, the thing is, he’d LOVE the process of hashing all that out. Remember how he spent hours and hours on the décor for the refurbishment of Airforce One? He adores anything to do with putting his stamp on the reality the rest of us have to live in.
Anyone care to bet on whether (hypothetically second-term) President Trump’s new lackeys would dare to even hint that there could be a problem with renaming EVERY airport “DJT Airport” …???
I suspect that the horror of what he’d actually do will dwarf even our most outlandish imaginings.
Renaming states in his honor: would it be smart to bet against it?
My $0.02 on this ‘naming’ thing is that y’all just may be overthinking it a skosh.
I would submit that this article elucidates the archetype for Trump’s likely naming convention:
George Foreman reveals reason why five sons and two grandsons are all named George Foreman
Ergo, everything named uptthread, and everything else that Trump can think of, will simply be renamed “TRUMP.”
Will it be confusing? Oh, Hell, yes.
But that won’t ever be a consideration. It also ties in nicely with the topic at hand 
Fred Trump owned the first supermarket in Queens. My WAG is that Donald has a formative memory of seeing the name “TRUMP” on the marquee and has been obsessed with that image ever since.
