This is like the laziest of Kremlinology.

And it's an idle pastime to speculate on what Leavitt knows, versus what she finds it convenient to say in order to suck up to Trump.

Let's see, where have we seen wrinkled faces like that one?

So, they're being obsequious to Trump, and that's evidence something has changed?

Am I missing something or is this article really that dumb?

Ah, hope baiting..

Totally normal for a 28 year old girl to marry a 60 year old man amirite?

[–] sns@lemmy.dbzer0.com 19 points 1 week ago

They've probably been dating since she was 14.

Really starting to resent these type of articles. These don't worry he's going to fall apart soon, don't worry Republicans are going to turn on each other soon, don't worry the other shoe will drop soon, Etc... Someone else in this thread called it hope baiting and that seems apt.

Fucking stop with this Miss Cleo bullshit.

[–] FisherOfSaints@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago (2 children)

These people honestly sound a little out of touch to me. I don’t think Trump actually cares about the polls that much.

[–] phutatorius@lemmy.zip 1 points 6 days ago

He constantly brags about his great polling results, but it has no relationship to the actual data. So he cares about the perception that he's got universal approval. I think Trump regards facts as things to be worked around with more bullshit.

[–] Drusas@fedia.io 4 points 1 week ago

I think he knows that they have little to no impact on his position but that they do bruise his ego.

Don't threaten me with a good time.
