Trump Embarrasses All of America in Slurred, Disjointed Davos Speech – Donald Trump gave a terrible speech to a dead silent room at the World Economic Forum.
I have never listened to this man give a coherent and intelligent speech. No in his first term and not now. He’s never been able to start a sentence and finish it without veering off into something else altogether. How people manage to understand his gibberish beats my imagination

Every elected representative needs to be harassed until they get him out of office. Let him go face fraud charges

If you averaged out Donald Trump’s capabilities he would be aged around 50.
That’s because he has the mindset of a 5-year-old and the body of a 95-year-old.

The Big Guy has *destroyed* His own credibility…nobody should take anything He says seriously, ever again.
He is out of His tremendous mind.

Meanwhile, Mark Carney got a standing ovation. Yei Canada

The only way his will get removed via the 25th is if he visible has a stroke on live tv during a speech… this is close.

Did he say a single thing that was true in his entire speech? I’ve never hated someone more than him and I’ve never been more ashamed to be American. I am ashamed to share a country with people who call themselves his supporters. Stupid fucks.

It is fascinating watching as how publications outside of the NYT, WSJ, CBS, CNN, etc are capable of saying what is happening, but the mainstream media still is obsessed with normalizing a man who has obviously lost his mind.

I would like to travel outside of the US to see the rest of the world. But, as an American, I know we won’t be welcome. And it’s deserved. We fucking suck that we can’t get our shit together and get this circus under control.
Edit: just to be clear I did not support this man for president

I wish they would have laughed at him. Especially when he told a mostly german speaking crowd that they would all be speaking german if it wasn’t for the US.

A silent room filled with people wearing two shoes. Missed opportunity, right there.

It wasn’t as silent as I wanted. I only caught the beginning of it on my way to work, but he started out with something like “It’s great to be back in beautiful Davos, Switzerland. Looking around the room, I see a lot of friends… Some enemies…” and he got a chuckle from the room.
*That isn’t fucking funny, people.* It would barely be witty if he weren’t actively threatening to invade several countries. Given the current context, that’s not a joke, it’s a threat.

America embarrasses all of humanity by democratically electing Trump for a 2nd term !
Wolfeehx on
Not gonna lie, as an average Brit, my opinion of USA is in the gutter because of Trump, his cronies, and just republicans in general.
Absolute disgrace to humanity.

Trump is pissed that Carney (he called him “Mark” out of disrespect), got a standing ovation the other day, and he didn’t. Trump is an uneducated, vindictive, dementia-riddled weak old man who is nothing but an embarrassment to himself and his country. Statesman he is not. He is a convicted rapist and con man, and should be in prison for his offences. Appalling that he made everyone in that room at Davos sit through 90 minutes of lies and drivel, and that he is willing to destabilize the world to hide his multiple yet unknown crimes.

The times when he was describing how he bullied world leaders into lowering drug prices, I could hear him raping someone in how he described it: “They said, no, no, no… I won’t do it…” I said, ‘You’re gonna do it.” Never been more convinced about the Epstein files.
GrumpyGiant on
The attendees should have stood up and walked out the moment he took the podium.
Let the US know: make a sick joke out of the presidency, be treated like a sick joke of a nation. MAGA have their heads so far up their asses that they still think Trump is making America seem stronger on the global stage. They need to see what being a pariah state will feel like before the orange shit for brains crosses the point of no return and invades an ally.

He didn’t embarrass republicans or the maga Nazis. They will never be able to understand the real world.

Trump forgets the only time Nato has triggered Article 5
Donald Trump was quick to claim that European Nato allies would not come to the aid of America if the country came under attack.
But the US president forgets that the alliance’s mutual defence clause, Article 5, has only been triggered once in its 76-year history, after the 9/11 terror attacks.
Outside Nato’s headquarters in Belgium sits a twisted lump of metal from the World Trade Centre marking the attack and the alliance’s solidarity with the United States after it.
Mr Trump was the American president who oversaw delivery of the memorial and the American President to give the speech at the ceremony marking its arrival in 2017.
“We remember and mourn those nearly 3,000 innocent people who were brutally murdered by terrorists on September 11, 2001,” he said, the leaders of other Nato allies standing behind him.
“Our Nato allies responded swiftly and decisively, invoking for the first time in its history the Article 5 collective defence commitments.”
In less than nine years, the US president appeared happy to ignore his previous remarks, and thanks to Nato allies, to argue that Europe isn’t committed to global security because it won’t allow a hostile takeover of Greenland.
In total, 1160 non-American troops died in the subsequent campaign in Afghanistan launched in response to the 9/11 terror attacks.

Frontotemporal dementia. He has no business being a dogcatcher let alone POTUS.
Which his asshole minion grifter brigade that is the GOP should call him out on, as in impeach or invoke the 25th Amendment, but won’t because there’s too much money to be made.
Slade_Riprock on
The World needs to stop including him. Placating him, flattering him, giving into him have not blunted his dangerous antics.
So why include him, it is time for the world to shun America and show the bully they are biggest kid on the block. There is a global market and global community in which, yes without America it hurts but with THIS America it hurts worse.
So stop trade, pull diplomats, stop inviting him to NATO and G7, etc. Etc. Put a block on him entering their country or any diplomat, negotiation can be done via zoom if necessary.
Time for the world to stand up to America. Make Americans feel REAL GUT WRENCHING economic pain and maybe then they will rise up and remove him from office.
As an American I think we are begging the world to do what our “leaders” won’t.

If we had a functioning system the 25th would be in full swing by now, if not that, impeachment. This shit is fully broken

I just listened to the full thing. Jesus Christ it’s sad. He’s talking like he’s at one of his rallies, but he’s actually talking to a room full of intelligent people. The silence makes his stupidity really stand out
