Summary
Trump claimed ignorance regarding the use of the 1798 Alien Enemies Act to deport Venezuelan migrants, stating he did not sign the order and that “other people handled it.”
Despite Trump’s claim, CNN confirmed the executive order bears his signature.
A federal judge ordered the deportation flights halted, but the administration defied the order, citing it as verbal and nonbinding.
Trump and his administration criticized the judge, with Attorney General Pam Bondi asserting the judiciary has no authority to challenge immigration decisions.
“Look, people, I’ll make this simple so that everyone understands: If you hate the thing I did, I didn’t do it. If you love the thing someone else did, I did it. Easy.”
This is far too easy to comprehend for a quote from that stack of rancid orange whale shit. There needs to be lots more tangents and useless bits of inane waffling in there.
So… someone else is drafting EO’s and using his signature? How exactly is that better?
Must have used autopen…
The autopen has achieved sentience.
Autopen is written in that invisible ink we had as kids!
So then all of those people who did it and acted on it were kidnapping. Great, lock them up.
Shit rolls downhill, and Trump is crouching on top of the turd pile.
Orwell, please stop predicting things.
Ah so it was autopen. Then it needs rescinding doesn’t it according to your own logic.
Dick head.
Also just confirms he isn’t running the show. The “deep state” and his “handlers” are, according to MAGA logic.
Dick heads.
Knew that whole “Biden didn’t even sign the EOs!” had to be projection and setting up for something. Here it is. They don’t even need him to rubberstamp shit anymore, just full Weekend at Bernie’s with our senile walking corpse president. Hooray.
But don’t worry, this ends once Trump leaves office /s
If Joe Biden had claimed he didn’t sign something after he obviously did, the top story would have been all about whether he still had the mental competence to lead…
We watched this man fail to operate a car door, we’re beyond reason
The whole thing was computer, he was expecting an automatic I’m guessing
Link?
Not trying to be rude here, but this ain’t it. This sort of thing happens to me a lot due to hypotension and I’m perfectly mentally capable. Criticize the shit he says, not his physical struggles/disability. This just normalizes ableism. A disabled person can very well be capable of leading.
Thanks. I have had similar things happen to me while not paying attention…
Didn’t he say the other day that Biden’s pardons are not valid because he didn’t personally sign them? Does this make Trump’s expulsion orders also not valid? Ah sorry it only counts when other people do it.
Also he just admitted he just signs whatever and had no idea what he just signed actually contains. Either that or these “other people” faked his signature which is another can of work on its own. Maybe he’ll blame it on the deep state lol.
Such a clown show it puts professional clowns to shame.
It almost resembles a Nuremberg plea speech.
Afraid of everything, a coward given all the power of the executive and capable of only whining, shifting blame, and scapegoating the working class and poor. How evil do you have to be to deny asylum seekers and refugees?
The buck stops with… I don’t know, someone else.
So, he’s admitting he’s ignorant and not in control of this administration. I wonder if his worshipers will ever notice that their idol isn’t the one pulling the strings?
Luckily, for him, absolute cognitive dissonance is a prerequisite to being a Trumpist.
Ok, I’m going to get hate for this but cognitive dissonance is not a pejorative or a synonym for hypocrisy. It’s a feeling one gets from holding conflicting cognitions that provokes further thought. I doubt his fans experience it at all as ‘trump said so’ is enough to make anything make sense to them.
Youre right, the correct terminology here is “doublethink”
hey look, I don’t know what’s going on, I just work here. ask someone who’s responsible. the buck stops somewhere over there.
Not sure if Mafia boss or toddler.
What he is, is the most prolific traitor in American history, worse than ALL other American traitors COMBINED.
He and the people propping him up. There are a fair number of them.
Not sure if he’s an idiot or loofah sponge filled with jello.
