Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Can anyone help? I don't have a senile narcissist to English translator!
I'll take a stab at it.
I do these shows and everyone wants to see it. It goes viral and everyone looks it up on Google to watch on their phones. But Google is doing something to block it, so if I win I'm going to shut them down.
Ok, it's scary how easily you seemed to have done that. I kept getting caught up in the beautiful devices and couldn't figure it out.
Hats off to you, friend.
For donny you have to analyze like non native speaker or child. Who, what, where, when, and why. Also everything is either positive/negative for him.
He mentions Google, it's bad.
Him doing interviews on shows, good, the best.
Fox, good show
people on phones; good tech
trying to watch him, good. obvious see above
Google close down; veiled threat. Constantly does this, mob talk. "It would be a shame if something happened to your establishment." He also did it when he called Georgia secretary of state to find him more votes. He brought up his daughter, beautiful daughter. You want to do the right thing for her.
They should have charged him the minute he stepped out of the White House.
Coulda woulda shoulda. Now we get to see if he's gonna be president for 4 more years 🫠 wtf is this ridiculous timeline
Oh.
He’s threatening to use the government to harm them unless they feed his ego/help his campaign.
I guess he’s been spoiled by Twitter and Truth Social fawning over him and wants that from everywhere.
All I could find was a jabba the hutt translator:
"Google, nobody called tuta google. Wompa of doe things like doing do show like yours, do show, u know, u stuka it on fox, but whao u really stuka it sa all over doe pa, they take clips of do show da u're doing right ateema gee je um if mee do do good job, they're gonna vote che je, they're gonna vote che je because soong nopa just on fox, soong on fox sa do smaller part of it. U're on all over this, those little beautiful cell phones u're on, u're all over doe pa. U have do product, u have do grancha product. U have do grancha brand. So u have tah pushee, u have tah pushee, u have tah do things like do show um other shows um google has been ree goola. They've been ree irresponsible um mee have do feeling da google sa gonna be close tah shut down"
Wow, I don't know what it is, but that actually made it a bit easier.
Google isn’t kissing my ass and making me look good by constantly placing only the good things about me at the top of search results and videos.
So Google sucks and I’m going to shut them down.
"I want all the attention. I want everyone to have to look at me all the time on their phones. Give me that attention. Gimme! Gimme! Attention is like a McDonald's burger with fries. I want all the attention. Google, make that happen, make people watch me on their phones. Or I'm going to shut you down."
I know he's always been prone to kind of incoherent rambling, and quotes straight from his rallies are usually stream-of-consciousness walls of text like this. But it really seems like it's getting worse over time. Not sure if it's senility or drug addiction or stress or whatever else, but Trump really seems to be unraveling.
Even ChatGPT is confused
To make things worse, I also asked it to Yodaify it
LOL at "a few disjointed points". Whatever else you might say about ChatGPT, its output is extraordinarily polite. Saying "a few disjointed points" is practically the equivalent of "what the fuck is this drivel you fed me?"
Yeah ChatGPT didn’t seem to realize he’s praising/condemning google not Fox. He’s attempting to get google to roll over and lie for him like Facebook does
Does he really speak like that? 😳
Is this your first exposure to Trump?
Not in the news. But I am not American, I don't watch what Trump has to say (or rather, I barely watch news for years).
Years ago I used to hear him talk while he was president and it was really cringe but this transcript from the first reply just seems a bit surreal. Insane, rather.
Edit: I was curious enough to go visit the article URL and take a look at the video but there doesn't seem to be a video of the Fox clip they write about (or ublock/etc hide it). Maybe it's for the best... 😁
It's for the best. Listening to him makes you lose iq points. If he talks about anything you know about it is also likely to make you angry.
His speeches caused serious headaches for translators the world over. How exactly do you translate his incoherent ramblings into another language?
Crap, I hope they've been vaccinated at least.
Yes this is the direct quote the article refers to. He rambles nonsense, often self contradicting, and then people in the media try to fashion it into coherent points for him, leading to a fake impression of competency, misleading the public and voters. This is the man who had to have his national security briefings summarized into a few brief bullet points with pictures, and he was apparently still unable to read them.
Exactly. He should be block quoted more often and never given the benefit of the doubt. It's incoherent bullshit.
He also charted a hurricane with a sharpie! Usually we ask the children not to draw on the adults things but alas…

Sanitize those links, lemmy. And carry on.
Cheers! If it hadn't taken slightly longer to load, I might not have noticed.
Old man yells at cloud for not paying protection money.
It never ceases to amaze me how they mock Joe for speaking gibberish but then this seems to make complete sense to them.
Dear God...
I kinda thought he was saying Google, probably meaning YouTube, shows Fox content and people aren't tuning in on the TV anymore, and his dumb ass thinks Fox is losing money and viewers.
There is no way he'd destroy Google with all that yummy data he could gobble up and share with his shitbag acquaintances.
Trying to decipher his words is like dementia astrology, who knows. If he doesn't know what he's talking about, we surely can't either.
