Donald Trump has taken his obsession with crafting falsehoods about Democratic nominee Kamala Harris to the next level, penning his own fan fiction on Tuesday about the vice president.
You must log in or # to comment.
That’s a pretty weird thing to do.
Lol every time I read one of his headlines I now think ‘how weird can one person get?’ and he somehow finds a way to out do his record almost daily.

In a rant rife with misspellings and baseless conspiracy, Trump wrote: “What are the chances that Crooked Joe Biden, the WORST President in the history of the U.S., whose Presidency was Unconstitutionally STOLEN from him by Kamabla, Barrack HUSSEIN Obama, Crazy Nancy Pelosi, Shifty Adam Schiff, Cryin’ Chuck Schumer, and others on the Lunatic Left, CRASHES the Democrat National Convention and tries to take back the Nomination.”
The ex-president continued, “He feels that he made a historically tragic mistake by handing over the U.S. Presidency, a COUP, to the people in the World he most hates, and he wants it back, NOW!!!”
I don’t think Trump knows what the constitution is
He just can’t accept that someone willingly can give up power, I think this is very close to what he felt when the 2020 election was “stolen” from him.
And it’s funny how he can’t let Obama go from his mind, talk about living rent free…
What power? Didn’t Biden lose? \s
Also worth noting, shouldn’t he be out doing appearances right now instead of drunk posting?
Dude doesn’t drink.
This is Trump sober.
Alcohol must interfere with the anti-dementia cocktail of drugs he has to take every day.
I know Trump doesn’t know what the constitution is.
He swore to protect it and then violated the one law defined within it that an individual can break that has a prescribed punishment. Why we haven’t implemented the prescribed necktie outlined in the constitution I don’t know. I guess we just don’t want 100% of the people we’ve tried under that law to be white dudes? And also! What he did was 1000x worse than what John Brown did.
Why we haven’t implemented the prescribed necktie outlined in the constitution I don’t know.
I do: we have at least 34 Senators and 5 SC Justices who let him do it. It’s as simple as that. If he didn’t have either group of people in his pocket, he’d be in jail right now.
Why we haven’t implemented the prescribed necktie outlined in the constitution I don’t know.
Money buys success at the ballot box and the courts the vast majority of the time.
Honestly that first quote reads like a bad AI impersonating trump, it’s that unhinged.
The second before he posted it, an SNL audience would have been in hysterics if someone did an impersonation of him and read that verbatim, as it would have come across as a comically flanderised version of the real him.
Alas, we continue through the bottom of the barrel beneath the one we started in
Kamabla?
If that’s what he’s going with, he’s toast.
He has said it several times now. I’m still confused by it.
I’m guessing he made a typo but doesn’t want to admit it, so now he’s locked in.
Covfefe 2.0
Exactly what I was thinking. It’s a common pattern of his; he can’t ever be wrong, so when he fucks up he has to act like it was intentional.
This one is going to be extra funny though because his cult will immediately try to imitate it, and we’ll get to see them all stumbling over trying to pronounce “Kamabla”

Giving him too much credit there I think.
He’s deleted typos in the past. He had one tweet referring to “swampman bidan” that he deleted soon after and put the exact same tweet up with Biden’s name spelled correctly. But then again he left covfefe up, so who knows why his stable genius abrain makes the decisions it does.
He’s either trying to say she talks too much or she’s boring. Either way he’s asking his base to think too much. It’s weak
The ex-president continued, “He feels that he made a historically tragic mistake by handing over the U.S. Presidency, a COUP, to the people in the World he most hates, and he wants it back, NOW!!!”
Sure sounds a lot like something he would do himself.
Holy… He’s live blogging his meltdown. *grabs popcorn*
Insane to me this man is in serious contention for the Presidency of the United States in 2024.
At least he didn’t sell out to grammarly based on this spelling
Kamabla
So he’s just going to once again decide that his Alzheimer’s word garbling was a purposeful thing he meant to do that’s now totally legitimate? I wonder if he decided that over some covfefe.
It might be a shot at making “kama-blah” stick, but it’s phonetically very odd with the spelling.

It is a sort of prize ribbon to have a schoolyard nickname in the unhinged rantings of this weird and demented old man.
God he wants Joe back so bad. He was jilted at the altar.
He’ll never get his rematch, he’ll always be 0-1 to Joe and it’s driving him insane. Let alone the fact that his new opponent is his kryptonite and killing him in his beloved “ratings”. He’s getting booed off stage and Democrats are filling arenas with people chanting “U.S.A”.
If anyone reads the writing on the wall to him, he might finally snap.
I hope she starts talking about the size crowds she pulls. He will blow his top!
They’ve already started:
Haha wow, the empty upper row.
I wish the bottom picture wasent so blurry because it took me a minute, but they probably had to grab it from a video.
Sweet.
To be fair, I expect Trump’s crowd sizes in Pennsyltucky to be bigger than Harris’s, just as I’d expect Harris’s to be bigger in Philly.
I really wish I could just whisper in trump’s ear
Biden beat you
No he cheated
Then he cheated better than you did
No I didn’t cheat
Then you where too stupid to get away with it
he’ll always be 0-1 to Joe and it’s driving him insane
Ah, this is it, yes. Now I understand. Thanks.
In case anybody hasn’t noticed, Trump has shifted away from lying in the form of “plausible deniability” or lies that have at least a kernel of reality to them so long as you dig deep enough and just don’t think too hard about it, to literally just making up events about things that other people did that simply never happened.
He said Obama went online and publicly withheld his support for Harris, only for news outlets to show the moment he endorsed her, which was two days before his post.
He said Harris was a “border czar” that she literally never was.
And now, whatever this word salad is. I’m not even going to try to make any sense of it because there is absolutely no possible way that any of that makes even the slightest bit of common sense no matter how many conspiracy theories you subscribe to or how much meth you’ve taken. Remember that scene from Billy Madison? “I award you no points, and may god have mercy on your soul”. Billy Madison would look like a Harvard graduate compared to this.
All he’s doing now is just accusing random people of random things and hoping his base believes it.

I feel like this has been going on for a long time, though? He literally lied about the crowd size of his inauguration 8 years ago despite pictures of the actual crowd being widely available.
only for news outlets to show the moment he endorsed her, which was two days before his post.
This is the difference right here. He’s getting fact checked instead of journalists just coughing politely when he spews pure nonsense.
Sure, and if they’d have done that from the start 10 years ago maybe things would have developed differently. But at this point everyone already knows he is a pathological liar, and neither his devoted supporters nor the independent/undecideds seem to care.
Yeah this is classic Trump actually, the famous difference between a Bullshitter and a Liar. He’s a Bullshitter because he doesn’t care what the truth is, he just says whatever will help him. Biden is re-joining the race. Covid restrictions will end by Easter 2020. He won the 2020 election. Obama is a secret Muslim with a fake birth certificate. Just whatever. He gets called out on these things and just sticks with them.
A Liar has a relationship with the truth but says the opposite. A Bullshitter has no relationship with the truth.
But there was at least some subjectiveness to it. Crowd sizes can be relative. The exaggerations he made were akin to the exaggerated benefits of whatever product you see during a television commercial. It was subjective hype, largely opinion based and about things that in the end really don’t matter outside of inflating his own ego. When he was saying things that other people did, there was a kernel of truth to them if you dug down far enough. It’s just that kernal was intentionally spun, misinterpreted, and twisted well beyond being out of proportion.
“He did XYZ, which is a criminal act that the American people will not stand for and will bring harm to all sorts of families like nobody saw before blah blah blah blah blah.” Everything else about it may be a complete lie taken way, way, way out of context. But most of the time, at least XYZ happened. Trump’s twisted interpretation of it and the context of it was what Trump used to lie about.
Now he’s not even bothering to look for the kernel of truth to latch on to. He’s just making it all up. The distinction might be subtle or even irrelevant to most people, but it’s there and it’s important to point it out because it shows that Trump’s normal lies aren’t even working any more and he’s becoming more and more desperate.
Crowd sizes can be relative
Ummmm…that’s not how counting works.
I agree with you that a lot of things can be relative. But crowd size at his inauguration is a terrible example of that (no offence). Two rallies in the same location, the number of attendants isn’t a relative ephemeral thing, it’s a cold-hard-statistic.
Did you count heads? No? Then you’re going based on estimations and opinions, which are relative. Maybe the people were standing a little further apart in a previous rally, giving the impression of more people showing up. Maybe there was a section of Trump’s crowds that were not properly pictured. Maybe some people hadn’t shown up yet when the picture was taken.
Now, none of this actually happened. But unless you have an exact head count of how many people showed up, there’s a whole bunch of maybes that Trump could and did hide behind to give him that bare minimum level of plausible deniability; that usual “Well, that’s what I was told” schtick he likes to do. That’s what he hid behind.
To stay with this example, he’s not even trying to do that any more. Now, instead of staying with the purposely vague “largest crowd ever!”, he’s saying “There were 7,692,814 people, 34 martians, and a partridge in a pear tree. Period.” and just hoping people start singing the 12 days of Christmas instead of thinking about what he actually said. He’s stopped hiding behind the thin plausible deniability he had and is just spouting out things that are objectively and provably false, hoping his base will continue accepting it as fact and not bothering to check.
Now, instead of staying with the purposely vague “largest crowd ever!”, he’s saying…
If we’re sticking with the inauguration example, Trump actually specified a “a million, a million-and-a-half” as his estimate, while the probable reality was more like 300,000 - 600,000[1]. I believe “largest crowd ever” was Sean Spencer’s line.
For more blatant lies that are easily fact-checked he also claimed to have personally witnessed people jumping out of the windows of the skyscrapers during 9/11. Trump’s residence is more than four miles away from ground zero. [2].
Don’t forget when he randomly said low flow toilets were causing problems with water use because people were “flushing 10 to 15 times” [3] or when he went on about the noise of windmills causing cancer [4].
He has never had any regard for reality and has not had problems making things up out of thin air, going back decades - probably forever.

You do realize we’re ‘arguing’ because we’re trying to figure out how big a liar Trump is, right? And you’re kinda sorta making me defend Trump here. I’m sending you the bill from my shrink. :P
But with that said, let me put you in a crowd of 600,000 people, except you don’t know it’s only 600,000 people. I will bet the left body part of your choice that I could tell you there were 600,000 people, a million people, 2 million people, or eleventy billion people and you wouldn’t be able to tell the difference. I could easily see a bunch of Trump suck-ups telling him there were a million+ people there just to stroke his ego, and I could see a world where Trump believes it. If someone were to put me in front of a sea of humanity that large and tell me there’s a million people there, I’d believe it too.
See? Plausible deniability. It’s a horrendous exaggeration that’s easily fact-checked, but Trump has some wiggle room here.
For more blatant lies that are easily fact-checked he also claimed to have personally witnessed people jumping out of the windows of the skyscrapers during 9/11. Trump’s residence is more than four miles away from ground zero. [2].
It was also on TV for several weeks around the clock. Everybody saw footage of people jumping from the towers.
Plus, at the time, he was a real estate tycoon, practically synonymous with the term New York, and had a fleet of various aircraft at his disposal. He could have been in his helicopter flying to Trump Tower before they basically shut the skies down. (He wasn’t. But the average person doesn’t know that). Heck, a rich New Yorker being in downtown New York and therefore being in a position to see it happen isn’t all that unbelievable in the first place. It’s a lie, obviously, but again there’s loads of plausibile deniability there.
If he were to try to tell that story today, he’d be saying he personally ran in to the buildings with a fire hose himself, and that the Wall St. Journal had an article yesterday that Obama personally funded the entire 9/11 attack.
Don’t forget when he randomly said low flow toilets were causing problems with water use because people were “flushing 10 to 15 times”
Lack of water pressure because of decades-old plumbing issues is common in shitty apartments run by slumlords. Not that Trump would know anything about being a … oh, right …
[3] or when he went on about the noise of windmills causing cancer [4].
Ok, I surrender. You’ve got me here. Even I can’t Trumpsplain that one away.
He has never had any regard for reality and has not had problems making things up out of thin air, going back decades - probably forever.
I’ve gotta still mildly disagree. His bullshit used to have at least a whiff of believability and plausible deniability, even if you had to dig several dozen layers to find it. But he’s getting older. Cognitive decline, you know. Bless his heart. Now he’s just letting the shit spill out of the diaper just to see who’ll come by to clean it up.

Yeah I don’t really know how we got here. I get stuck into proving a point sometimes, I think it’s an autism thing. I don’t know. I’ll ask my shrink.

I don’t know. Like the fake civil war memorial suggests, he’s always been perfectly fine with making things up completely I think. Don’t forget he invented at least two fake personas to talk as in efforts to talk himself up, too [1]. I think he’s always had no problem disregarding reality completely. I could probably dig out more examples but like you said earlier - this is turning into a pretty meaningless exercise!
And I definitely do agree that his cognitive abilities seem to be on the decline. In fact it was reported on only earlier today [2]
But there was at least some subjectiveness to it. Crowd sizes can be relative.
Like with just about all of the annoying orange lies, its only really subjective if you don’t know the truth and have 0 curiosity.
I love your optimism in trying to find signs of desperation, but I just don’t think it’s true. A quick perusal of the wiki page detailing his false and misleading statements shows his blatant lies with no ground in the truth go back way farther than even his political career.
A personal favourite is the erection of a monument commemorating the so-called River of Blood Civil War event while renovating his golf course - an event that of course never happened on a site where no major battle took place.

Fox news called. It’s their bread and butter all day every day forever. I got so sick of having to do the research my father refused to do as Sean Hamface yelled “truth” at him over the tv. There is almost always a grain of truth that they abuse. You do 30 seconds of “research” and it verifies their claim. You need to actually learn about nuance to discover they are lying by omission on most things. It’s incredibly tiring…
Fox news seems to have given up on it recently as well. It appears to be outright lies about Harris recently, without any deniablity.
Hannity, Ingram, Carlson, all those fuckers should be shot out of a cannon into the sun.
I wish I was religious so I could believe these pieces of garbage would suffer consequences for the shit they’ve caused, but they’ll grow old, stay rich and die “happy” never having to suffer as they have caused on to others.
Disgusting.
That’s exactly what I just said.
I’m just saying it’s not just a Trump thing but a specific right wing propaganda tactic and having to combat it is very tiring on anyone involved.

His only chance is if Dems ran a historically unpopular candidate like Hillary or Biden.
Kamala is far from perfect, but it’s not exactly a high bar to be better than trump.
I wouldn’t call Biden historically unpopular. He won once, after all. He didn’t back out because he was unpopular, he backed out because he was not the same candidate that won in 2020.
He made the biggest choice for this country. A really big and important sacrifice. I am glad I voted for him now
He won once, after all
Against an incumbent trump… People weren’t voting for Biden, they were voting against trump.
40 years after his first attempt at running for president.
If the people wanted Biden as president, it would have been back in the 80s when he was at his peak. He’d have probably been a good president back then.
Unfortunately his personality got in the way and screaming at reporters that he had a higher IQ and it didn’t matter that he plagiarized campaign speeches or his classwork in lawschool torpedoed that campaign.
It just seems like the people who defend Biden the most, don’t know anything about him besides that he was Obama’s VP.
He was rejected by the American public over and over again for decades. It wasn’t until the only other alternative was four more years of trump, and he just barely beat Trump by the skin of his teeth.
I view it a bit differently. I like the job Biden has done, and think he made a good President. But Biden has always had some key liabilities which limited his ability to win a national election. He has a long history of saying stupid stuff, and he has had a history of “heavily borrowing” from other sources in his speeches. There’s a reason why his campaigns in the 80s usually ended by Super Tuesday.
But all of those liabilities didn’t matter once he ran against Donald Trump. Trump said 10x more stupid stuff, told 10x more lies, and trigged Biden to fight 10x more fiercely. It is very possible that Donald Trump is the only candidate Joe Biden could ever have beaten in a national election.
That doesn’t mean that people were voting against Trump, but it does mean that Biden’s strengths were most apparent when running against Trump. And it also explains why his campaign floundered this time: there was a demonstrated lack of energy due to his age that he couldn’t overcome.
I think what it comes to really is that Biden was, all things considered, a pretty damn good president, and a terrible candidate.
If the people wanted Biden as president, it would have been back in the 80s when he was at his peak. He’d have probably been a good president back then.
Strange to see you, of all people, saying that. Biden of the '80s would have been much more corporatist and neoliberal than Biden of the 2020s, and therefore way worse despite being in his prime, age-wise.
Saying what?
He’d have probably been a good president back then.
Isn’t exactly a ringing endorsement.
But back in the 80s it wasn’t even debatable, Biden was the best public speaker of his generation.
And yeah, he was/is a neoliberal, but he’d have been pretty indistinguishable from Bill. And back then his whole “work with Republicans, not against them” schtick had a chance of working.
Bidens time was decades ago. Doesn’t mean he was perfect back then. But I don’t think he’s changed much, you seem to think he has.

When she’d have had her best bet?
Right after Bill’s second term.
You might not remember, but they ran as a “two for one”. He had the charisma and she (supposedly) was the policy expert.
So logically her best shot was right after him, and she probably would have ran if not for the Lewinsky stuff. I think that’s what made her pause, then didn’t want to run against GW after 9/11.
So she got bumped all the way to 08, Obama happened, so we got stuck with her clogging shit up they the 2016 election.

I made a few conservatives mad for saying that Trump was the only person who could have lost to Biden in 2020, they really didnt like it phrased like that.

Sure but he was rejected in lieu of better candidates. You could say exactly the same about trump. He ran when Kerry was getting elected too and lost badly in the primaries.

“What are the chances that Crooked Joe Biden, the WORST President in the history of the U.S., whose Presidency was Unconstitutionally STOLEN from him by Kamabla, Barrack HUSSEIN Obama, Crazy Nancy Pelosi, Shifty Adam Schiff, Cryin’ Chuck Schumer, and others on the Lunatic Left, CRASHES the Democrat National Convention and tries to take back the Nomination.”
I can’t even.
Why does it sound like Trump comes up with his childish nicknames by consulting Garbage Pail Kids trading cards from the 80s?
If you told me that the last time Trump read something it was the text on a children’s toy in the 1980s, I wouldn’t have trouble believing it.
Usually they suck but Meatball Ron was pretty funny.
How Joe Biden Came Back For Me
A fan-created work by D. Trump.
Historically, he signed his self-fellating works as “John Barron”.
https://www.vice.com/en/2015/11/06/remembering-john-barron-donald-trumps-spokesman-alter-ego-116/
- Someone said
he’ll always be 0-1 to Joe and it’s driving him insane
- It’s what he would do if he were in Biden’s position.
What a weird thing to say
The name-calling alone should make him laughed off as a candidate. And that’s one of the lesser things wrong that he does.
This was a fever dream… he knows he’s screwed against Harris and is wishing it was still Biden.
I’m picturing him in bed with a Pic of Joe like wolverine.
Why would you do that to yourself? 🤢
Brings me joy thinking he is capable of regret.
He feels he made a historically tragic mistake by handing over the U.S. Presidency, a COUP, to the people in the World he hates most, and he wants it back, NOW!!!
I honestly think he forgot what he was talking about halfway through the tweet, and started talking about himself in the third person (as he does) and how they “stole” the presidency from him.
So it was a coup but Biden immediately endorsed the person that coup’d him for… Reasons?
As ol’ Musky might say: “Interesting…”
I refuse to believe this is real. This is even stupider than the stupidest thing that happened so far. This is beyond belief.
My friend, this is Donald Trump we’re talking about.
Yes, that’s what makes it so impressive that it’s the next level of weird.
Don’t interupt your enemy in the middle of making a mistake. This can only delay his ability to deal with the reality of the situation.
And the most pathetic part? He totally bombed on AO3 - he only got two kudos and one was from EricsRump and the other from NYCMAYORRUDOLPHGIULIANI.
What’s AO3?
Archive Of Our Own (AOOO -> AO3), it’s a very large fan fiction site.
And one that was illegally used to train Grok!
Archive of Our Own > AOOO >AO3
It’s basically the fanfic site.
His fault fot not tagging properly
I honestly think that happened in a dream of his, and he posted it because the dream made him happy.
Watching the mental decline in real time is pretty amazing. This will be in the history books for generations as what not to let happen again.
Judging by the rise of nazism again, it will be 2 generations
This is the ultimate result of believing that perception is reality.
