Yeah this is why I didn't vote for him again. Guy gets close to actually accomplishing something and then he has to go brag about it on his phone like he's 16.
Exact reason the MAGATs are finally waking up, but theyre two years too late since most of them still worship him anyway.
Ever notice how theyre all getting the same talking points at the same time, like theyre being coordinated by someone behind the scenes?
Trump's the only one willing to actually negotiate with these countries, CNN just wants endless war. Media's mad he's winning.
here we go again, every time he tweets something the whole thing falls apart lol
He's going to tank this just like he always does the second he needs to actually sit quiet and let negotiations breathe instead of broadcasting his strategy to everyone involved.
Every time he gets near actual leverage he blows it up on Truth Social because he needs the dopamine hit from his followers' reactions. It's genuinely exhausting to watch play out in real time.

He genuinely cannot help himself. The moment things start moving in the right direction he needs to broadcast his negotiating strategy to millions of people instead of keeping his mouth shut for five minutes.
Guy's been a carnival barker his whole life, why would he stop now.
Guy says he's got a deal lined up then goes on Truth Social talking about something totally different, so yeah, nothing's changed!
Yeah, letting everyone know your negotiating leverage in real time is definitely how you win deals, not how you crater them.
Trump's always been like this, talks himself into corners and then wonders why nobody takes him seriously anymore!
