I think Donald Trump only had Don Jr as a way of avoiding being known as The Least Self-Aware Person Ever. Although Elon Musk provides stiff competition.

Trumps Russia-Ukraine peace plan. Ukraine should just surrender. This isn’t a peace plan it’s fawning to Putin. Don’t trust Trump ever.

Twitter implemented a new feature last night that displayed the country an account is in. So many of the ‘America First’ accounts were from foreign countries that they had to disable the feature within hours. 🙄

Sex trafficking on Meta platforms was both difficult to report and widely tolerated. Instagram’s former head of safety testified that when she joined Meta in 2020 she was shocked to learn the company had a “17x” strike policy for accounts that engaged in the “trafficking of humans for sex.”

When Trump was asked about the release of the Epstein files, he called one reporter "piggy" and said another was "being insubordinate." When Trump saw a video calling on the military to follow the constitution, he called for the death of the Democrats who made the video. He's a tyrant.
