Trump always comes out of meetings agreeing with the last person he talked to. He has no mind if his own any more, if he ever had one to begin with.

Why don't all of the left leaning politicians then make it a point to just continually schedule 1 on 1 meetings with him?
The stench probably.
Trump was a Democrat back when he was handing out BJ's. Probably got his anger from a scorned lover situation.
Anyway, I think Republicans all have a carry card that says "Trump meeting rules: 1: kiss his ass. 2: tell him to never meet alone with cheating Democrats"
Over the years he forgot that cheating was about his male lover and thinks it's about elections.
The face paint looks a bit lighter also
He's had an epiphany. He's going to come out as bi any day now and defect to the Greens and by executive order make the stripes in the US flag rainbow coloured and he's going to rule as a just, benevolent dictator.
Oh a benevolent dictator? Well, that's just great! Benevolent dictators get the guillotines with a cushion on them.
Aw :(
They also get thoughts and prayers. It's a real upgrade!
Yay :D
Mamdani cast Charm Person, and even though Trump was rolling with advantage, his WIS score was poor even in his best years. Hasn't worn off yet.
Fuck he almost looks human
The sad part is, I actually pity him. I have seen that look, I have seen it on my father's face. And I pitied him too. Doesn't excuse their actions. Mine neither, let that be for the record. But this got fucking dark. I'll go home now.
He’s basically cosplaying as Senator Palpatine. We all know what comes next.
The attempt on his life did leave him scarred and deformed.
Nah, he looked like that before too.
What, no, look at his ear, it's totally scarred, it's mangled, barely even anything left of it. /s
Simple, Mamdani probably just knows how to handle a narcissist. All you gotta do is stroke their ego, and it's not too difficult to get them on your side; the hardest part making them think that your ideas were their own, but even that's not too difficult, either, because in typical narcissistic fashion, they'll just steal your ideas and then claim them as their own.
Trump is doing a bit, he knows the fix is in to destroy Mamdani, but doesn't want to take the heat for it. He's making it look like he really likes Zohran, but he knows Zohran's life is about to become a living hell. Trump and his millionaire and billionaire allies in New York are planning to discredit socialism as an ideology, by making it look publicly like he had no hand in meddling with Mamdani's administration.
I don't doubt that there's going to be a big effort to discredit Mamdani, but why would Trump care if he looks clean? He's never cared before about that kind of thing.
My money's on this. But: tldr; if city workers know he's trying to do good, and find out old money is fucking with him, his support will strengthen in a way we've not seen in a long time.
So, having worked for the city years ago, I also know it's a system full of people he was directly talking to with affordability. They're on-board with him, if he starts delivering the goods in a public way. Ways to get good food for cheap for everyone, raising wages, getting a cap on crime and helping the homeless. That's all people want.
With that in mind, if it is revealed that even a couple of billionaires is working to trash those efforts in a coordinated manner, suddenly the people of NYC have both a guy trying to do right by them, and a powerful enemy to rally against. There aren't enough cops to deal with people dropping bricks off rooftops, every street becomes a potential 'interaction'.. think a version of "the warriors", but it's regular folks vs the recognized billionaires. Heh, one can dream, anyway.
What'll happen, ultimately? I dunno. But the ingredients for something special are in place.
He looks like JJ Abrams tried to create a new villain for Star Wars (that serves on the Jedi council) but when he looks in the mirror, he secretly cackles.
Imagine having such an eroded sense of self you cling to what you deem is a strong man and have to emulate him. All While being the president of the US
I still get amazed at how absolutely stupid MAGA are.
It will always be a mystery to me why US citizens always place so much importance on appearances instead of focusing on the important things.
Here's an example from the last election campaign: the Democrats were somehow more successful in portraying Trump as "old and strange" than in portraying him as how he really is: corrupt and criminal.
Well, now organized crime rules the US – but somehow it's still all about how Trump dresses, how he is old and weird. Yes, that's true, I mean, the guy has been orange since the 90s, but it's by no means the biggest problem with this administration — not even close.
I have a family member that liked what Bernie had to say back in 2015 but said they couldn't get past his teeth. I had no response.
I’m starting to see shades of a relative I have in trump. Mind you, this person is very nice and I’m not trying to disparage them at all. They’re ADHD and probably in the early stages of dementia. They eat like shit. Using hocus-pocus dietary supplements because they know they eat like shit and think these are a fix. Constantly shifting what the latest great thing is - doesn’t matter what it is, food, clothing, a bit of tech, supplements, a media source… and thanks to their declining mental state it’s like the worst aspects are amplified. Wide emotional swings. Focusing on anything difficult like logical steps to return a purchased item via mail are super difficult.
While my relative’s swings are anti-trump if the subject comes up and the anger is focused on trump’s and the reich wing’s stupidity, it sure mirrors trump’s wild swings on everything, his raging about whatever, and his focus on what the latest interest is. Fixing anything like the Economy is too hard and too many steps, so he relies on whatever clueless mumbo-jumbo others tell him. Even the hocus-pocus health fix by using a snake oil salesman like Kennedy.
