I’d be shocked if the headline read ‘trump says a truth’

Yeah, but there are lies and then there are lies.

Trump normally just lies. Today, he lied about Taylor Swift. That is a lie lie.

JudahBenHur ,

I think you might be round-about almost quoting Mark Twain?

“There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics.”

FlyingSquid OP ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

Not intentionally. I was trying to say the difference between a convenient lie for his own MAGA people and one which might actually come back to bite him in the ass.

Ah so it was projection when he said Harris used ai.

Always is. Accuse your enemies of that which you are guilty of.

I knew he had small hands, but I thought he at least had the right number of fingers.

Thanks

ravhall ,

All they had to do was crop the fingers off and it was a pretty good image. I wonder if the kid whose dad asked him to make it kept them in the frame 😅

dogslayeggs ,

Is that who you really want to fuck with?

shalafi ,

Let me get this straight, you think that Taylor Swift, one of the wealthiest and most powerful women in the world, with legions of loyal fans, is not going to retaliate against your public lies?

Good luck.

HubertManne ,

This goes back to his comment on how he could shoot someone and not lose any votes. He can do absolutely anything to trick normal folks to vote for him because it will not change one single vote from his base and he can count on them to argue that what he does is fine or whatever.

FlyingSquid OP ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

No way is he going to trick the Swifties.

HubertManne ,

non of his stuff will work on the group at large but he just needs to pull any at all. send me your ignorant, your incompetent, you just plain stupid who yearns for something but does not get what the results of their actions will be.

2pt_perversion ,

The problem for Trump is there is a third shadow candidate in the race called “did not vote” so it doesn’t really matter than his main base would vote for him regardless.

If he fakes Swift’s endorsement and she comes out and roasts him and fires up her base to vote, the amount of votes he gains by trickery will be really small while the amount of people Swift converts from not voting to voting against Trump will be larger.

And there’s actually some data to suggest Trump is losing part of his always-red base and the rats are abandoning a sinking ship at the moment as well.

Rottcodd ,

Wow - that was quite possibly the dumbest thing he’s done yet.

ravhall ,

Piss off a billionaire singer with an army full of drones?

Rottcodd ,

And a billionaire singer who’s already such a common target for AI deepfakes that she’s quite likely the one person on the planet most ready, willing and able to sue someone’s ass off over them.

nondescripthandle ,

I can hear Swifts jet engines spooling up now.

He’s trying to retake the news cycle, like a week too early. The democratic convention will bury this story, and will potentially cause Taylor to back Kamala this week and I think Trump will be permanently out of the news.

The only way this actually works is if Swift backs Trump. Which I doubt, I hope.

MagicShel ,

This would be the perfect impetus for Kamala’s team to reach out to Taylor and offer her a platform at the convention to denounce this action by Trump. If I was in her team that’s what I’d be doing.

Dementia DonOLD the weird racist rapist with 34 felonies that can’t complete a coherent sentence is too far gone to realize this is fake. It’s sad and embarrassing at this point. He should drop out and seek treatment for the dementia.

fuzzywombat ,

This is strategically dumbest move he can make. Taylor Swift has been relatively quite for a while now regarding politics and now either she or her publicist is basically forced to respond to this. My best guess is Trump is trying to stir the pot to get any kind of attention but this isn’t it.

CatZoomies ,
@CatZoomies@lemmy.world avatar

Does Donald Trump, the convicted felon rapist racist, really want Taylor Swift to publicize again to him about how much she champions for human rights, advocates for the LGTBQ+ community, adovcates for abortion rights, and hates the corrupt fascism and conservatism poisoning the U.S.?

Right before an election, too! Sure, Diaper Don, let’s get the Swifties angry again and let’s have them vote Democratic in droves. That’s a community you should really piss off!

Desperate Diaper Don, beloved friend of Jeffrey Epstein, is desperate once again.

EDIT:

Remember to vote. Do not get complacent. Make sure you vote, and tell your friends and family to vote. Say NO to Fascism.

FlyingSquid OP ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

Yes, but now he thinks she loves him.

Remember, he picked a running mate who called him America’s Hitler before he started brown nosing. I can absolutely see this moron thinking that Swift suddenly went MAGA.

CatZoomies ,
@CatZoomies@lemmy.world avatar

Trump lives in his own reality, where he is a billionaire genius, and Taylor Swift and her fanbase loves him.

In our reality, he’s a traitor insurrectionist, rapist, racist, liar, fraud, corrupt, sexist, convicted felon, asshole, degenerate, Fascist, and heavily-indebted moron. And Taylor Swift hates him.

@YarHarSuperstar@lemmy.world avatar

Actually, that was meant as a compliment.

TransplantedSconie ,

Holy fuck. He’s about unleash the full unbound force of the Swifties apon his old, weird, decrepit ass.

Get your popcorn ready. The backlash will be glorious.

@capt_wolf@lemmy.world avatar

I legitimately would love to hear the planning process for their whole AI idea. It’s absolutely astounding. Like he’s just giving up and now going for “most sued ex-president of all time” to add to his other list of shitty firsts.

I mean, there is a certain freedom in being completely screwed….

Ironically this may be the thing that makes Taylor Swift endorse Harris - earlier than she had intended
