The “stable genius” thread

The Untruth Social thread focuses on the dishonesty of Trump and his administration, and the Trump and mental illness thread covers his psychopathology, but I think we also need a thread focusing on his stupidity.

No better place to start than with the 2018 Twitter quote that inspired the OP title:

Actually, throughout my life, my two greatest assets have been mental stability and being, like, really smart. Crooked Hillary Clinton also played these cards very hard and, as everyone knows, went down in flames. I went from VERY successful businessman, to top T.V. Star, to President of the United States (on my first try). I think that would qualify as not smart, but genius….and a very stable genius at that!

That quote is its own best refutation, because no one who was truly a stable genius would be stupid enough to say that he was “a very stable genius” and “like, really smart.” Trump is neither, and this thread will soon be full of examples proving it.

  1. Trump:

    Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!! Open the Fuckin’ Strait, you crazy bastards, or you’ll be living in Hell – JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah. President DONALD J. TRUMP

    Jones:

    This is not a Christlike Easter message.

    You think?

    ETA: That reminded me of Bill’s comment that our criticisms of Trump were not consistent with “Judea Christian values”, lol. And that Trump is “a choir boy” compared to me.

    Jones:

    I didn’t vote for this.

    Oh, yes you did.

    Still, it’s good when people like Jones and Marjorie Taylor Greene come (halfway) to their senses.

  2. Speaking of MTG, she posted this yesterday:

    On Easter morning, this is what President Trump posted.

    Everyone in his administration that claims to be a Christian needs to fall on their knees and beg forgiveness from God and stop worshipping the President and intervene in Trump’s madness.

    I know all of you and him and he has gone insane, and all of you are complicit.

    I’m not defending Iran but let’s be honest about all of this.

    The Strait is closed because the US and Israel started the unprovoked war against Iran based on the same nuclear lies they’ve been telling for decades, that any moment Iran would develop a nuclear weapon.

    You know who has nuclear weapons?

    Israel.

    They are more than capable of defending themselves without the US having to fight their wars, kill innocent people and children, and pay for it.

    Trump threatening to bomb power plants and bridges hurts the Iranian people, the very people Trump claimed he was freeing.

    On Easter, of all days, we as Christians should be reminded that the son of God died and rose from the grave so that we can be forgiven once and for all of our sins. Jesus commanded us to love one another and forgive one another. Even our enemies.

    Our President is not a Christian and his words and actions should not be supported by Christians.

    Christians in the administration should be pursuing peace. Urging the President to make peace.

    Not escalating war that is hurting people.

    This NOT what we promised the American people when they overwhelmingly voted in 2024, I know, I was there more than most.

    This is not making America great again, this is evil.
