Trump: ‘I run the country and the world’
« on: April 28, 2025, 06:01:04 pm »

President Trump shared his thoughts on how his two terms as president have differed, saying in a new interview with The Atlantic that this time around he’s leading “the country and the world.”

“The first time, I had two things to do — run the country and survive; I had all these crooked guys,” Trump said in the interview published Monday. “And the second time, I run the country and the world.”

Trump has taken broad executive action on a range of issues since returning to office in January, with his moves on immigration and trade drawing the most attention and producing intense pushback in courts and among global leaders, respectively.

Well, stepping into another MSNBC type thread, it has long been said that the POTUS is the most powerful man in the world. His actions have serious effects on the country, and for that matter, the world. As statements go, it isn't wrong, but can be taken however you like and spun to use against him if the user wants.

Tell me Biden and Obama didn't have serious effects while they were running the country (and the world--or not, as in Biden's case, except for the money gathering operations).

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Trump has this hyperbolic, NYC way of speaking where he sort of makes ridiculous exaggerations to get his point across.  :shrug: I don't think he believes half the things he says even just sort of embellishes to get his point across. As President I wish he wouldn't do it but whatever.

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.

I didn't find humor in it and was hoping you could explain what I missed.  :shrug:
