Things are only to get dumber, aren't they?

Hey, look over there, a dead cat!!

Trump is trying to troll his way out of the public’s awareness of his Iranian disaster by diverting their attention. He’s also, bizarrely, been showing a doctored video of King Charles, made to look as if Charles just shrugged when somebody fainted during one of his visits. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cx2z9n8ew49o

TFG is nuts now, that’s obvious.

I realize King Charles won't do it because it is beneath him to even notice, or pay attention to, such mnatters.
D Trump sued the BBC because they edited a video making him look culpable ( h was ! ) for Jan 6, and he claims this hurts his reputation and business dealings.

I propose the British Government, and Commonwealth countries including Canada, bring the lawsuit as the King is our representative, and besmirching him affects us all.

Trump actually did this in the Oval Office. When someone fell ill behind him and everyone was attending to the chap, Trump just looked straight ahead with a face of willful, care-free ignorance.

Funnily BBC requested Trump's business records for discovery (as Trump claimed damages to his brand and businesses). I wonder why.

The title is: "The Liar’s Dividend: Can Politicians Claim Misinformation to Evade Accountability?". And the answer is: yes.

Since Trump doesn’t distinguish between personal activity and government, I’d like for countries to do the same and seize his personal assets in compensation for the damage he’s caused the world. It won’t happen in the US (until after he’s out of office) but he has assets everywhere

One can dream. But realistically, it appears that rich folks are shielded from accountability pretty much everywhere.

Best not to make too much of it. Like all trolls he craves attention.

The BBC has done the right thing by quickly showing the actual, unedited footage of the incident, to compare with the Natalie, I mean Trump, version.😉

That's because he thinks he is America.

They don’t want to have more tariffs levied on their goods, and military action is a nonzero probability. There is still risk they likely want to deflect while he’s president.
