So, in the middle of the night the other night, a horribly racist meme showed up on Felon Trump’s personal social media account. After quite a bit of backlash, the meme was deleted. First, the woman who lies for him to the press tried to excuse it by wondering why anyone was concerned. Then, the White House came back and said that Trump didn’t post that, it was an intern, he didn’t know it had been posted without his knowledge , and later, when asked if he would apologize, he admitted he had seen it but still took NO responsibility for it. Trump is such a huge liar that who really believes it wasn’t him that posted it, but assuming it was true that someone posted it FOR him, then what the fool? He posts tons of awful things on his own truth social site and, taking this at face value, means he approves of the worst things that get posted and basically authorizes someone to post FOR him. Who the heck is running this country? Read this from the Guardian Incidentally, I find it weird and distasteful that he is using a personal account for official pronouncements like EOs and his treats against others, including foreign countries,Because it’s not an official government account, but one of his own outlets that he makes money from, Americans may not even see the crazy stuff he posts. Trump does presidency via Truth Social – what are Americans missing out on?
Americans could be missing out on understanding Trump’s mental state and his performance in office. On at least one occasion Trump has appeared to be confused about whether or not certain AI videos are real on Truth Social. In early December, the president posted 158 times on the platform in three hours, raising questions not just about his increasingly unusual behavior, but also how he is spending his time.
But few Americans will have witnessed this erratic, and revealing, behavior directly because just 3% of people in the US use Truth Social.
The relatively tiny number of people using Truth Social, revealed in a Pew Research Center study published in late November, could effectively cut people off from direct communication from their president. It may also shield Trump, 79, from some questions over his mental state.
Trump’s restriction to Truth Social, a company which he owns and whose value has contributed to his soaring net worth, means only 3% of US adults have witnessed Trump’s increasingly incoherent rants, frequent sharing of racist posts, and generally odd behavior.
….
some things have been big enough to break through: Trump’s rant about Rob Reiner, published on Truth Social a day after the film-maker died, was widely reported. It may be that even using a sparsely populated social platform cannot hide the behavior of an erratic, seemingly exhausted president from the American public.
“Americans have a front-row seat to the decline of Trump, right? So we’re now seeing videos and pictures of him falling asleep during cabinet meetings, dozing off doing important international summits,” Riley said.
“He spent a lot of time on the campaign trail criticizing the former president’s cognitive decline, and yet we’re watching his age catch up with him in real time.”
I guess he thought that pictorially showing black people as apes was okay to do and certainly I know that a whole lot of Republicans seem to have no issue with that. To add to that, Republicans have had no issue with brown people being portrayed with racist themes. (The ones I truly wonder about are some black people and why they have ever voted for such a racist -is he bribing them?)
Should Trump be excused because some people make apologies for him and treat him, THE PRESIDENT, as if it’s not serious? I don’t think so
OBAMA: “People make excuses for him. They say he’s not serious. Everything a president says is serious!”🔥

Most importantly, and I’ve thought a lot about this in terms of how I want to live my own life and what I expect from people in power. I certainly only have agency within my own sphere of influence, but people with a lot of power, like a president or elected official have, in my opinion, a heightened responsibility not just to act capriciously for themselves but on behalf of the people that they represent. I agree with the following:
I miss having decency and intelligence in the White House, but I also miss just having decency championed in our every day society. DT has brought out the very worst in America, and they feel emboldened and empowered. It feels lonely to be someone with compassion, and that should never be the case.
