Recently he is looking confused and lost more often than not.

I live in Louisiana near the location of the unprecedented flood in 2016 that occurred during the Presidential campaign. He made a trip to one of the relief centers, handed out some toys that had been provided by a charity group, shook hands with some emergency and relief workers, then left. After this photo-op, I had to listen to friends and family about how much Trump had done for the relief effort and Obama had done nothing. It was our paper towel moment.

Is this the visit he made with Franklin Graham I read about in the news? I saw some Facebook posts claiming he brought several trucks of supplies and a tanker truck full of fuel that he paid for and the post also claimed he donated $4 million dollars of his personal money to the relief effort. I have a hard time believing this and have not been able to find any credible news sources that credits Trump with paying for the supplies, the fuel, or making the donations. If anyone has anything about this, please share.

Also, that weird centaur stance makes it look like he's either photoshopped into the image or supported by a stick. I can't decide which.

Ageeed I'll never do it again.

I really don't understand the hype about AI in it's current state.

This is probably just theater. Iran can't look weak but they really don't want to pike the bear.

Kind of has a Willy Wonka "no, don't, stop" vibe

I definitely agree about the vibe being different in the mid 90s to the early 00s. Lots of passion and energy about the tech. I don't think it's all gone but it's definitely nowhere near as intense.

Very few people can recognize that level of dissonance. They have twisted stuff in their minds so long it's impossible to see it.

I have so many questions.

This guy is s total fake. The corn pome accent and the conservative outrage. He was a Democrat until it was obvious he'd never win in Louisiana so he switched.

Thank Jack Welch and Milton Friedman

The thing I find intriguing is what's going to happen when Trump is no longer around. It's such a cult of personality and he's the type of person to suck all the air out of a room. There is no one that will have that kind of impact and it will leave a huge vacuum when he's no longer around.

This is way too accurate.

Profound words by a wise man.

mereo@lemmy.ca is correct. We'll never fix anything in the US. I used to be hopefulbut there's just now ay as long as people buy into the BS conservatives sell.

Probably defense cross examination

Agreed. M is definitely the sweet spot for tech right now.

I've never heard of pigeon management but I have heard something similar described as playing chess with a pigeon as someone who "knocks all the pieces over, shits on the board then struts aroind like they've won".
