He wasn't.
He's embarrassed that Dana turned it down. "You can't reject me, I reject you!"
He should just find a crackhead in front of a liquor store to put it all in perspective for us
@MicroWave Ha! So it was true! He did get confused about which Dana White!
Could also be that he wanted this Dana White, this Dana White said no, and so now Trump is trying to pretend like nobody said "no" to him because it was "just a prank bro."
What a surprise, Trump doesn't like people telling him "no."
He's not a comedian
True. Some comedians are much better at foreign policy than this potus.
Zelensky for one.
He did make one of his TV producer partners head of the intelligence service though, which went about as well as expected, with Kyiv literally the last to be told that Russia had invaded despite weeks of buildup.
Do you want a list of Trump's inadvisable hires? From fox news, or family or just random sports promoters?
uh huh. Nodding.
Wasn't it the same excuse he gave over the "grab 'em by the pussy"?
Even if I assume Trump is telling the truth, that's what we need as a president! Someone who sarcastically says one thing and only reveal it as a joke later when the people get confused. Shout out to when Trump told everyone to inject themselves with bleach to cure COVID-19. Gee, I wonder why people take his words seriously, it's not like he's the most powerful man in the world and should make absolutely clear that something is joke if you're going to make one
Shout out to when Trump told everyone to inject themselves with bleach
To this day it may be the single dumbest thing he has ever said, and that is saying something. Don't forget he said at the same time something about "shining the light on the inside" when he learned that UV rays kill COVID.
The funny part is that we know the exact moment he thought of what to say. This photo was taken minutes before he went on stage:
The illiterate fuck misunderstood the poster, and then repeated what he thought it meant. He was grasping at straws for any answer at this point, because his death toll numbers were still climbing. And when his speech writers didn’t have any answers, he just started making it up. And he used this poster as inspiration.
Just think. There could have been an unstable woman in charge in 2025. Blasted libs!
Charge every one of them, all the way to the top.
Everyone needs to unilaterally stop reporting on him. Press pool needs to pack up and go home. Just total press blackout.
That would be amazing, just focus intensely on the legislative and ignore Trump entirely. He'd hate that
You mean like Stalin?
Not sure if serious but no, absolutely not. We need to know about all of the unbelievably dumb and crooked shit he does.
But the problem is that he makes so much shit up, lies, gets so many things wrong, that he’s completely unreliable. Like this Dana White thing. Sure, report what the cabinet members say, what other officials say, but at this point he’s just trolling. And when he spews verbal diarrhea, it affects the magats, the stock market, our image worldwide, and the reporting just has so be walked back when he says, “ha ha, just kidding. And you rubes fell for it.” It’s exhausting and damaging.
Knowing about his lies is also important
Basically everything he says needs to be followed by, “This statement has not been independently verified.”
It’s always a “joke” when there is backlash. Like his reptilian co-workers, he has no spine.
