What is the significance of Donald Trump's recent posts?
What have I said about Donald Trump? WMD, weapon of mass distraction. Let me give you exhibit A. Just take a look at what he's posted over the past 48 hours. And just a reminder, I don't show Trump video or audio anymore on this channel, but I will tell you what he's doing and saying because corporate media wants to normalize his behavior. not here on the Midas Touch Network.
Why is Trump reposting past events?
And I fact-checked this stuff as well. So I was looking at Donald Trump's posts, and here's one of the things that he posted. Trump rings opening bell at New York Stock Exchange. I saw that. I was puzzled. I was like, why is he posting this now? Did he go back to the Stock Exchange and I just missed it? No, he's randomly reposting now, January 9th and 10th, posts about when he rang the bell on December 12th, 2024, basically 30 days ago or so. Why is he reposting this now? By the way, the stock market was down that day and the stock market's been pretty volatile. And if you want to take a look at the bond market right now, very volatile as well. But why does he keep on posting? This is what he posted as well.
He keeps on posting about this December 12th visit, by the way. Trump rings opening bell at New York Stock Exchange in front of Time Person of the Year cover. He's going to keep posting this just every day, just randomly post this. Oh, by the way, as you're scrolling through, His posts, his social media platform has ads like this. Get new permanent teeth in just 24 hours. So anyway, I'll reserve what I'm about to say. Focus, Ben, focus. Okay. Then Donald Trump just posts this map. of Canada, U.S., Greenland. You see Mexico there as well. He wants you to know that the capital of the United States is Washington, D.C., and the capital of Greenland is Nuke, although he probably doesn't know that. So he's posting that map. Why? Oh, because he wants to conquer it.
What does Trump's map of North America imply?
Total normal behavior to annex our allies in Canada, to annex Greenland, which he says he's not going to rule out using military force to take over Greenland and make it part of the United States, even though Denmark is a member of NATO and then NATO would have to declare what? Oh. War on the United States for trying to invade Greenland. This is what Donald Trump's posting.
How is Trump's behavior perceived in relation to military threats?
I mean, by the way, could you imagine if President Biden made any posts like this? Here's what Donald Trump posts as well. He posts this chart from Mark Andreessen and it says, this is a really remarkable chart of tariffs. as a percentage of total federal revenue. The Second Industrial Revolution, perhaps the most fertile era for technology development and deployment in US history, was 1870 to 1914. And you take a look at this, a lot of nations that use tariffs are developing nations, not developed wealthy nations that need to engage in trade with the world. And so what this chart is purporting to suggest or say is somehow that tariffs as a percentage towards overall revenue is an indicator of what, economic prosperity? So you're saying that post-World War II America, where America became the wealthiest nation in the world,
was a worse economic time than what you say the best economic time was, was sometime around our Civil War, or if you even look earlier, the late 1700s. You want our economy to look like the American economy of the late 1700s? What in the world are we even talking about here? More posts of Donald Trump talking about conquering Canada,
What are Trump's claims about peace negotiations?
And then this right wing propagandist, Paul Ingrassia, says Donald Trump's reemergence on the world stage brings statesmanlike order. Donald Trump showed the world that peace is achievable. Decline is not inevitable. And a continent embattled by so many maladies can be revived so long as it reclaim faith. Okay. Are we observing the factual world or are you living in the kind of MAGA fan fiction right now? So do you want to say that peace is achievable? Let's address that first. Didn't Donald Trump say that within 24 hours of the election, he would bring peace into Ukraine? No. Well, that didn't happen. Well, what if I give him the benefit of the doubt? I shouldn't.
