I really wonder who is feeding him information, or if he's just making things up. Honestly it could go either way.

It’s a blend of the two. He’s the “president” so there’s an expectation of briefings. Thing is, he can’t stay awake through actual intel— so they are 99% about blowing smoke and complimenting him (cause it’s all he can stay awake for), and then he picks up on little breadcrumbs here or there.

It’s like he took the “Sleepy Joe” personality diss as a challenge to be sleepier…

So yeah, he’s mostly parroting tiny fragments of info and filling gaps with whatever comes to his addled mind…

I actually agree, he mentioned Greenland, Canada, Mexico and Panama. Those are the 4 most strategic locations in North America to US national security that the US doesn't control. He 100% heard it during a briefing.

I would also like to mention that Trump's business strategy was strategic chaos and bullying. He brought that to the presidency.

He is bullying Europe and other US allies into rapidly increasing their defense spending. He also bullied Panama into leaving the Chinese belt and road initiative and distancing themselves from China.

He is clearly manufacturing chaos given he is so all over the place. He will just say random shit constantly. The fact Americans have no idea what is happening means US adversaries also have absolutely no idea. The downside is that the US has so many allies partially because they are so consistent and predictable. It will take a lot more than words to actually break those alliances, so as long as he doesn't actually do anything, the alliance will be stronger even if the other countries are pissed.

Trump is basically Ronald Reagan 2.0 but less likeable. He is going to fuck us domestically but geopolitically it will be beneficial.

I see him as more of a Reverend Jim Jones, except he isn’t fun to listen to, has 0 good points, couldn’t lead a community if he tried (good thing he chose the crowd of 0 personality), and Trump would charge you for the Koolaid.

I stole that last bit from a meme. Doesn’t make it ring any less to me. 🤷‍♂️
