        It’s almost better if it’s not true. That will probably piss off Trump even more, because they are lying but so many people will believe them and troll him with it.

        It’s obviously not true, if they were to do that to him then he would absolutely be ranting about it on truthsocial and calling for an all out war on China… At which point we’d see the signal chats because hegseth would have added at least 3 outside people to it.

          I’m not so sure. For clarity, I don’t think it’s true either, but, if it was, he probably wouldn’t tell anyone about it, because, the fact that they could do that to him makes him look weak. If there’s one thing a narcissist will chew off their own toes to avoid, it’s looking weak in front of people. It’s the same reason he uses bronzer and hair dye.

      If Trump suddenly starts mentioning Obama in his tweets for the first time in months, then yeah, it’s True. Otherwise, fake.

      It’s about as true as the Trump claims that the Chinese are calling about a trade deal.

      Both sides are actually nglike they are standing off, but both are trying to get things resolved in secret.
