Trump panned over bizarre ‘Red Button’ and Kim Jong Un comments in response to DeSantis’ 2024 launch

By Victor Nava

Former President Donald Trump was ripped by some on social media and questioned by others after a bizarre Truth Social post in which he appeared to criticize Ron DeSantis shortly after the Republican Florida governor launched his bid for president.

“‘Rob,’ My Red Button is bigger, better, stronger, and is working (TRUTH!), yours does not! (per my conversation with Kim Jung Un, of North Korea, soon to become my friend!),” read Trump’s baffling post on Wednesday.

The post was later shared by the Trump campaign in an email to supporters.

The odd missive came after DeSantis formally announced his entry into the 2024 presidential race during a Twitter Spaces event with the platform’s owner, Elon Musk.

DeSantis’ announcement was delayed by roughly 30 minutes due to technical difficulties that Musk attributed to overwhelmed computer servers.

    For heaven's sake @debrawiest President Trump tells you right in the tweet.

I wonder if any of the Trump supporters could interpret this post.  I usually can guess what he meant to say, but this one is a true mystery.  The timestamp says 6:54pm.  Should we chalk it up to sundowning?

Rob?

If you visit Twitter, you know the backstory.

That's an interesting thought.

I think we need to start questioning Trump's mental competence like right now.

It's getting to that point.

He is very competent at being mental. I see no need to question it.

Well, I don’t speak Trumpian, so be a dear and ‘splain it to the rest of us.

I'm no expert, but he appears to be bragging to someone named "Rob" about the size and functionality of his "button" and apropos of nothing, noting his kinship with a nuclear-armed tyrant of some repute.

How could anyone be "friends" with a tyrant mass murdering dictator?

Sounds like a COVFEFE redux.

Did somebody say: "Red Buttons"?

Who knows?  I think the stress of his presidency, the lawsuits and now DeSantis challenging him, has affected his mental and emotional well being.

I've not noticed a difference.

We've been Trumpsplained to for a very long time and it's still clear as a child playing in the mud.

Oh, okay. Now it makes sense.

And there's your answer.  Not even a Trump zealot can explain it.
