This is what tipped off the "onlookers"?

Jebus. This sounds like the AI psychosis spiral.
Like, I didn't think trump was smart enough to use AI. He can't read.
He must have found one that talks to him. And feeds everything he says to his rusky handlers.

Did you see that video of him talking to an AI Roosevelt and the dumb fuck was actually talking back to the AI thinking he was actually talking to Teddy. Absolute buffoonery.

He's got dementia and he confabulates. He's probably had it starting in like 2016 and this term they are trying to not to make him angry so they just show him shit he wants to see.

'Aghast' is more likely that 'they' (probably no-one in reality) were yawning at yet another tirade of nonsense. I know what you're thinking, there's been articles like this for years that makes you wonder how anyone could still think something like this. This is essentially tabloid, clickbait crap. That's why. When the mainstream papers really start calling out the lunacy (repeatedly) you'll know it's nearly over for him. Sadly some time away yet.

Literally like a scene from a comedy movie except even that parody president was less incoherent. Itd be almost funny in a sad sort of way if he wasnt, well, in charge of a massive military.

Anyone old enough can remember when Boris Yeltsin was stumbling around, drunk as a skunk & the other russians would pretend that everything was fine.

Now its your turn USA - and remember what came after Yeltsin

It's just headline gore. Typical "View From Nowhere" style writing that tries to displace the perspective of the journalist onto a third party.

It's popular among news venues that are terrified of appearing biased.

No, do you remember where you saw that?

I'm not fearing it. I'm hoping. Spiral faster!

next, they'll be telling us "wait, guys... his skin, it looks orange!" like it's news

Unfortunately some guy I saw on the local news 20 years ago already claimed it and sold most of it

Historians will analyse the pictures and start wondering what was up with our eyes. Though they'll probably also wonder what was up with our minds I guess.

Fuck, I thought this was bad.

lunacy

Well done.

Thanks, I Totally meant that pun ;)

At least he didn't have his own media outlet.... "hic, I order a radio broadcast, ....right now!... I know it's 2am... I want.. I want the bestest, geatestest ... USSSSSR.. sSSR... I want the moon on a stick! Yes! ..Hic... Give me it. Give ME the moon, NOW!.... What? No! I dshidn't just Shay anything if the sort...yeh, the shmoon, moonsss, moonsess. Wodka? Oh loveshly thanksh....now what's was I sayinsh?..."

Gasoline is $5. Diesel is $7.

You're being distracted by those cunts theatrical dramas while the feds are building modern surveillance and profiling. Trump is a plant.

Swan lake enters the chat....

The Orange Pedo thinks that is where little girls live.

Is it really a pun if that's where the word came from?

Oh come on. Everyone knows that after planting the flag, Neil Armstrong licked the ground and by official playground rules... Mine! Was declared making the moon property of the US 😂

He's also had at least one stroke in 2025. That ones pretty undeniable, and there's a lot of evidence he may have had more since.

Never said it was but I appreciate the usage in relation to this article.

I hate to defend the orange clown, but I think he is referring to the new space race for the moon as opposed to ownership.

Joke's on him, he doesn't know about the metal munching moon mice.

... 😐

No... No one owns the moon... I think there's treaties.

I feel myself die,

When verbal diarrhea,

Spews out of his mouth

"Fear" If I leave the water on in the bathtub for 4 hours and "fear" the floor in the bathroom is wet, there is a problem in my noggin.

The latter, yes.

The militarization of space has not faced any opposition.

It will be an interesting time.

He should rename the moon america.

Despicable He

Where are you getting it that cheap?

You think?

He's clearly lost the plot and is unfit to govern.

His cronies will try to keep him in power as long as possible, so that their schemes keep getting greenlit. Also, they have stupid fucking Vance prepped up.

At this stage he stopped having any shock value. It's the race to the bottom as Putin and Xi are prepared for the moment the US collapses.

Was his name Donald Trump?

It's a money sink of galactic proportions, and the USA is basically out of money. No one else is opposing because they are letting the US sink itself at this point

the increase in trump gaffes correlates with the amount epstein file related news surfacing.

“Smart enough to use AI”? He “tweets” like a maniac and is able to just talk to an AI just the same. He definitely is on that 16 hours a day.

I wonder what would have happened if this imbecilic self-indulgence had come after China had successfully launched Chang'e 7. And by "wonder" I mean "dread".

Chang'e 7, whose launch has been delayed, is a highly ambitious and comprehensive (uncrewed) lunar mission incorporating four separate vehicles into a single launch and mission: orbiter, fixed lander, rover, and - an innovative "hopper", which has been previously implemented (by Japan) for landing on a small asteroid, but never a world as large as Luna, or as difficult to navigate.

This is definitely one of the most ambitious space probes ever to be assembled. One might even say the most ambitious, when you consider that the landing site is remarkably close to the South Pole - not the easier or safest region to visit, let alone properly explore. If this mission were going beyond Luna, I'd probably rank it in the same league as Viking or Cassini-Huygens - and in fact, depending on its longevity and science return, I ultimately might have to anyway.

Some have gone so far as to say that this mission represents the point where China's spaceflight abilities are challenging, or even exceeding, the USA's. I'll leave that debate to the side here while noting that the science return from Chang'e 7 looks to be phenomenal and possibly groundbreaking, if they can pull this off. This isn't a "flags and footprints" or purely nationalistic mission; China's already done those. From the science standpoint, this looks like the real thing.

Those who consider Lunar science a dead and settled issue have some shocks coming, both geopolitically - because of the potential for exploitation of Lunar resources and development of military applications) - and scientifically. The equatorial and mid-lat regions of Earth's Moon are not well-explored, despite what people think, with information about the origin and evolution of planets in general. And that's before you consider that the Lunar South Pole could be a repository for comet and asteroid debris that is second to none. Explore that properly, return those samples to your labs, and you could be gathering data on the ultimate development of the atmosphere and biology on Earth.

In this context, a pronouncement like this from the "leader", or even the dementia-riddled tribal figurehead, of the US could be disastrous. Regardless of his proclivity to write his name in water, or the general understanding that we're dealing with someone who was always emotionally and intellectually stunted, the world could watch as China starts to unlock the deeper potential of space science, while the USA grows aggressive and grasping in a domain where there are as yet no people, and no rules. Even with Trump gone, what do you suppose a President Hegseth or Vance would do in cislunar space? "Claiming" Luna isn't feasible, unless you try to shoot down any craft landing there, but what about the Lagrange 2 point or the geosynchronous belt above Earth?

When you consider how Musk, Bezos and the FCC cabal have effectively been squatting in Low Earth Orbit with Starlink and other satellite constellations - to the point of crowding out other users - I wouldn't put any of this past the post-Trump USA.

Denying your opponent the use of space, be it Low Earth Orbit or points beyond in cislunar space, is hardly trivial. You would notice if the GPS, weather and communication functions of Earth's satellite swarm were denied you. China and Russia understand this well, no matter how many people here may be stuck in their blinkered, reactionary opinion that "space is a waste of money".

They can't even take a strait, or maintain equipment, and have issues with feeding their people. So yes, the us should totally try to "take" over the moon.

The moon, sun, solar system, universe, reality. All belong to him, inside of Trump's shriveled brain.

He's elderly, ill, and has dementia, on top of the fact that he may very well be the dumbest human to walk the earth in several millennia, this is not news to anyone.
