BREAKING: A confused Eric Trump reportedly asked Don Jr. if their dad died, and JD Vance became president, if Vance would then become their father.

At the cookout today, I realized something wild: the only people who even knew Trump has been dodging the media for days—all under 40.
My mother-in-law asked how I even knew this was happening. My answer? Independent journalists.
Almost half the people there had no idea what’s going on right now. And most didn’t even know where they’d look to find out.

2PM:
He’s going to make an announcement tomorrow that he’s going to invade Chicago. Media hasn’t reported anything bc they know the death rumors are bullshit. Stop getting everyone’s hopes up. Getting this fucker out of office is going to take hard work.

The social media consensus it that he will name the defense department Department of War.

The summary of the health scare/hopeful thinking for a week is that he had a pretty severe case of Covid.

Trump never noticed that he was dead. And what were the trash bags thrown out of his residence window?

Trump fails to take notes while he was dead. We don't know if he was going to heaven (you can imagine the redecorating needed) or hell. He did wave hand at Epstein.

There is some evidence of a health cover up.

It took an hour extra to prepare him for the camera.

I saw him drag his right foot along the floor as the press was leaving

You guys said he was dead, didn't you?

Donald Trump has responded to viral online rumours about his death, saying he was unaware the false reports were taking off on social media while he was out of the public spotlight in recent days.

"I didn't hear that one," the US president said after a reporter raised the issue at a White House press conference.

"That's pretty serious."

In another example of a false conspiracy rapidly spreading on social media — assisted by algorithms that reward hysteria over accuracy — hashtags such as #trumpdead and #whereistrump began trending over America's Labor Day long weekend.

The unfounded theories that Mr Trump had died were fuelled by his week-long break from public engagements and recent images of his bruised hands and swollen ankles.

Some posts speculating about his health were rewarded with more than a million views.

Illinois Governor JB Pritzker even responded to a critical post from Mr Trump by saying: "Why don't you send everyone proof of life first?" His post was retweeted more than 6,000 times.

Mr Trump used his own platform, Truth Social, to insist he had "NEVER FELT BETTER IN MY LIFE" on Sunday evening, local time.

On Tuesday, he said he knew people had been speculating about his health.

But after a Fox News reporter asked him: "How did you find out over the weekend that you were dead?" Mr Trump said he "didn't hear it to that extent".

That kind of Lex Luthor look that Trump would totally own. Come on Donnie - do it do it do it do it do it.

A bunch of women and lawyers at the US Capitol, live on TV. I heard a guy talking real fast and he mentioned "subpoanas." I had thought for a second he was talking about the famous sub-penis of Trump.

Trump and the Art of Extortion?


Given everything else Trump is doing, why worry about the Fed?
Control over the Fed will give Trump power over the central bank’s decisions on interest rates.
He says he wants to lower borrowing costs — making it cheaper for America to pay interest on the national debt, for businesses to get loans, and for Americans to buy homes.

Longer-term interest rates will rise (it’s already starting to happen). And as longer-term rates rise, the stock market will fall (put on your seatbelts, folks).
So maybe lower interest rates isn’t the real reason Trump is so intent on controlling the Fed. What else could be on his mind?

Control over the Fed gives Trump way more tools for extortion. With control over interest rates, he can get America’s biggest corporations and the world’s biggest nations to bend to his will. With control over the big banks, he can get Wall Street to submit to his whims.
