It would be pretty distracting.

Well, a lot of pedophile billionaires WILL die in that one, so I'm willing to be convinced

Honestly this is just standard posturing, no threat. Not revealing exact positions either. Putin probably does this sort of shit daily (not on social media though).

Anything to distract from more pressing issues as you said.

And he clearly did not write this one himself.

Taunting North Korea's leader in 2017 by calling him "Rocket boy"*, that was a different matter: for a moment we all held our breath. Ultimately nothing happened, he even stumbled into probably his one and only diplomatic win, but still: that was inflammatory.

* (and any number of similar tweets since then; that was just the first one while in office)

I propose a new amendment. A person must be homeless for a presidential term before they can be allowed to serve in a presidential capacity.

Then the least of us can lead with empathy, at least that is the hope.

Then maybe we can get fucking health care, including mental health.

IMHO what Trump writes about is just business as usual. Standard posturing (both literally and figuratively) that is happening anyhow all the time on all sides. Anyhow, all it says is "appropriate positions", so I counter: shouldn't military submarines always be in "appropriate positions"?

Normally you wouldn't ~~tweet~~ ~~truth~~ lie about something like that at all. My guess is one of his PR people thought a little fearmongering might distract from other issues...

I remember back when Trump got caught with all those classified docs there was a story about him showing off some about submarines to a rich Australian dude. There was a comment about how everyone in the navy knows that you do not talk about subs. Everything about them is top secret, and if it were anyone else there would be very severe consequences.

Considering this, I would normally treat anything said about secret weapons a bluff. But given who's talking, I've no way to tell if it's stupidity instead

What should be a secret? That nuclear (propulsion or arms?) submarines are in appropriate regions? I should hope that that is always the case.

He isn't that self aware, so no.

Is it distracting from Epstein and his pedo rape island?. Then it's on the menu

Nuke subs just means powered by nuclear. They may or not have nuclear weapons.

lol the insults.

So children. They're both children.

And way too coherent, grammatically correct, generally making sense.

It's always so obvious what he wrote himself and what some PR person wrote for him.

True. It doesn’t seem to be real if it doesn’t have capital letters in it.

I see nothing in that post that isn't business as usual - except the fact that Medvedev and Trump, two man babies, apparently got into a fight.

Submarines are always stationed in "appropriate positions". This is just deflecting from other issues, you know...

That said I'm not underestimating the danger the Trump admin poses for the world, generally.

Eh, it makes sense as a deterrent. And he didn't specify where they are. But I don't think he knows "nuclear submarines" are not nuclear armed submarines. They are just nuclear-powered, meaning they don't consume oxygen to run (no fuel burned) and don't need to resurface for a long time.

Oh, lots of things.

We started with a genocide of the native people and then the wealthy land owners revolted against paying taxes.

That's one of his favorite phrases

Will the real DJT please stand up, please stand down, please fuck off.
