This is nonsense
Trump: "I could announce 50 to 100 deals right now because I'm the shopkeeper and I keep the store. I know what countries are looking for and I know what we're looking for and I can just set those terms and they can go shopping or they don't have to go shopping, because everybody wants to shop here"
May 6, 2025 21:48His second term and Trump still has no fucking idea how government works, let alone the presidency. What an utter fucking failure. How fucking stupid do you have to be to support this incompetent, criminal prick?
“Please bribe me” comes to mind. Seriously, this makes no sense whatsoever.
His brains are leaking out his ears. He's always been incredibly dumb, but now he's senile on top of it.
Honestly? If this were a show, and not my country, I'd watch.
If my country were competently run, and I didn't wake up with anxiety every day, I would watch the crap out of "Sundowning Reality TV President Speed Runs America's Downfall" on Syfy.
But boy, does it hit different when it's life.
99% of the time, at least, he spews nonsense & hateful ignorance.
To be fair, at least he doesn't have to worry about anyone plagiarising anything he's ever said.
The key part of that speech, the tell, is: "or they don't have to go shopping." Translation: no one is shopping.
Someone please tell The Shopkeeper we need spills cleaned up in most of the aisles and there's a dumpster fire out back.
On our way to becoming a Spirit Halloween.
A 7 year old running a lemonade stand knows more about market pricing than this fucking yutz.
Does Trump know how anything works? Tariffs? Golf? Government? Casinos? Charities?
What has that idiot done - ever - that cannot be ascribed to his inherited wealth?
He's not buying it.
I can’t keep doing this
He’s a loon. An embarrassing, alarming loon.
The penguins are refining their English skills then IT’S ON!
Apropos of absolutely nothing, when I was in 1st grade the school built a little town in the multipurpose room and we all got to take turns playing the shopkeeper. Good for you, Donny.
aww-he's playing store with his 2 dolls and 5 pencils
He’s sick….he’s the “shop keeper”, but doesn’t know if he’s responsible to uphold the Constitution? He’s jerking someone’s chain, but I don’t know who. Other countries are making their own deals. Who would want this headache?
The soul of a dictator, the mind of a child, the knowledge of an infant.
You just know some staffer made a clumsy analogy about small business owners and inventory, so he went to "shopkeeper, yeah, that’s the ticket, and America is my shop!"
Really he can’t maintain a consistent position from one moment to the next. If only Biden’s age hadn’t forced journalists to ignore Trump’s observable signs of dementia summer/fall 2024 (starting with noticeable perseveration).
Ah yes, it's Deals Week™
No T****, you are not the shopkeeper, Congress is supposedly in charge of tariffs.
I love French Wine. I buy French Wine. I have the wine. France and some middleman has the money. We all three win.
We are the buyers…the ones with disposable income, he is at best qualified to clean the spill on aisle 3
For one of your Marketplace shows, can't you just play Trump quotes and talk about how insane (I'm being kind here) he is?
Somebody tried to explain to him again that trade deficits aren't necessarily bad and he couldn't wrap his head around it.
When this country was founded people, didn't live long enough to lose their minds from old age.
We need to set a limit when the average person experiences serious cognitive decline.
My folks are younger than him, doing great, but I wouldn't want them in charge of the country.
I just feel that at some point business confidence is going yo melt away completely and it's going to 1929 all over
Every flipping day.
he should just do 1 or 2 as a demonstration. to show how real these deals are. just draw them randomly out of a hat (that contains 200 or 25 deals depending on when asked).
George W. Bush = The Decider
Donald J. Trump = The Shopkeeper
Calling my reps on both sides.
Unless we have a Sadat-themed military parade on his birthday, those invertebrates are our only option.
Shopping 🙄
Congress says what?
Said it before and I’ll say it again. He’s never made a deal in his life. He makes demands from positions of power and then someone takes it or leaves it. That’s it. Deal making involves negotiating, which he doesn’t know how to do, which is why he always folds when people just tell him to fuck off.
What do you suppose David and Gail Rhames, his faithful supporters, think of this stuff?
Did anyone notice the rhyme there? 😆 <cue Candy Shop>
Not gonna shop here if there’s nothing to buy, genius.
Zero-sum mindsets fail because they limit potential, damage relationships, and prevent the creation of new value, ultimately leaving everyone worse off. This is a key reason why Dirty Diaper Donny has been a failure his entire life.
Every time I listen to his interviews, circus music starts playing in my head.
Yes it is.
He's definitely going to give Iran a nuclear weapon
The only thing I ask is that his voters feel shame. It’s all I want. Would I LOVE seppuku? Yes. I would love seppuku. Will I get it? No. So just, please. Shame. Even a tiny bit.
Trump understands 2 things:"Winning" and "Losing." He does not always know or care which is which.
He gets a stupid look on his face when he lies about stuff like this.
Inside you there are two pencils.
the adults in the room seem amused. makes me wonder how old you have to be to be considered an adult in this playground.
WTF is he even talking about ?
What an idiot
We’re so far past Veep now into something almost surreal
You’re too kind, Kai. I was going to say it is bullshit.
The only thing Sniffles the Grifter could possibly name 50 to 100 of is the meal deals at McDonalds!🙄
Creamy Nonsense wrapped in dementia topped with greed.
No, it's bullshit
Is this more of that 5D chess I’ve been hearing about? Cuz I’m pretty sure this is just detachment from reality.
Not only does Trump not know how tariffs work, he hasn’t a clue about trade that includes services as well as commodities. Real estate and casinos do not prepare you to deal with macro economics and real rather than made up data. His claims of deals ring hollow if you hear them at all.
Does he think his base is that stupid, or is he that stupid?
A tad bit, yes.
🤡
06MAY: We have 50-100 deals.
08MAY: We have hundreds of deals.
09MAY: get this, media. we saved 300 million deals from fentanyl.
If there ever was a time for the 25th amendment… I really can’t tell if this is all just a sideshow while his family raids the national wealth.
You have a template for “This is nonsense” right?
At this rate, they’ll put you in the hospital with carpal tunnel if you have to keep typing it every thirty seconds.

He literally has no fucking idea what he’s talking about and NOBODY IS STOPPING HIM.
FFS
Kai Ryssdal, that is a polite term in this case. The man is deluded, has a Christ complex, and continues his slide into dementia.
Bring back Mr. Hooper instead please!
he's a moron.
He means Crypt Keeper.
The chubby hand of the market.
Of course it’s nonsense. Trump said it.
I would not shop at this poorly run store.
Loud fast rules is, like, so 80s and downtown. Not his scene at all, and yet ...
he’s just saying words he saw on a Ross Dress for Less ad and calling it policy
Still waiting for that stellar healthcare plan that's supposed to be better than Obamacare. 🙄
Also completely misrepresented how global trade actually works.
He's not buying it.
