Greatest American Zero. Thank you for your attention in this matter

“🎶 Believe it or not, it’s just me.”

A lot of people do drugs out of boredom, I'd have to assume if you're rich enough to buy a private island you start doing fucked up shit out of boredom pretty quickly. "Should we go ride jet ski's again or eat a dolphin?" pretty sure the phrase 'idle hands are the devil's workshop' relates.

I think that's a fairly normally believed thing. Backed by psychology. Our brain and dopamine centers crave novelty. And when you can buy whatever you want, whenever you want, the only left to scratch that itch is taboo stuff that you can use said money to get away with but normals can't.

Yup, this is exactly what it is. When you're so rich and powerful you can have literally anything, you start wanting the things you aren't supposed to have, and do the things you aren't supposed to do. Someone with a private jet, a couple mansions, a mega yacht, and a dozen lamborghinis will eventually get bored of being on top of the world. They become desensitized to it. They will do anything to feel excitement for something new. That's where epstein and the others like him that are probably still out there come in. They offer experiences you can't have under normal circumstances.

I've played so many ttrpgs where immortal vampires and fey live so long that they engage in increasingly intricate debauchery or plots just to experience something novel, just to feel something again. Starting to think rich people were their blueprint.

I like what some countries do which is make it a law that the CEO can’t make more than 50 times the wage of the lowest paid employee. So if you want to make more money you have to pay your employees more. It’s one good way to defend against widening wealth disparity.

Only immune so long as they hold majority in both houses. Lose both at once and he’s no longer immune

> Because it’s an enormous, gigantic clusterfuck, nothing of the regime collapse they were anticipating happened and now they don’t know WTF to do This reminds me of Russia's invasion when it started that first month in 2022. Apparently, Putin/the Kremlin thought the government would collapse fast and Zelensky would flee so they could take the country in days. And now here we are in 2026 and it's still going.

He is so f****** stupid. An absolute gullible p****.

No, they're gone. They'll follow the next one too.

If your family is like my family, why would you want them back for supporting this? Done with them.

And a McDonald's.

How about reading it without a voice? "See this pen right here? This pen is an interesting example. It’s the same thing. So, this pen is very inexpensive but it writes well. I like it. But I can’t have the pen the way it was. You know what it is. I don’t want to give too much publicity, but they do treat me well. Sharpie. So I came here. They have thousand dollar pens. And you know, you hand pens out. You’re signing and you’re handing them out. You’re handing them to all these people. Sometimes you have 30, 40 people. And they were $1,000 a piece. Beautiful pen. Ballpoint. Thousand. It was gold, silver, gorgeous. But I’m handing out to kids that don’t even know what they are. ‘What is this, mommy?’ It’s kids. They’re getting a pen for $1,000. They have no idea what it is. And I feel guilty because I’m like, you know, I’m by nature. I don’t, you know, it’s the government. I love the government. Like, I love myself economically. I want to save money. So, I’m saying, ‘This is crazy.’ And it had another problem. They didn’t write well. So I take it out and I sign and there’s no ink and I got all you people looking and you’re saying, ‘There must be something wrong with Trump.’ And I’m signing and there’s no ink in the pen and it cost $1,000. This one, I called the guy. I said, ‘I’d like to use your pen, but I can’t have a gray thing with a big S on it.’ Same sharpie. As I’m signing a a trillion dollar airplane contract to buy brand new fighter jets, brand new B2 bombers of which we just ordered plenty. I can’t do that with the press. Use your pen, but I like the pen the best, but I’ll sign it. I could do like Biden did, you know, give it to somebody else to sign or an auto pen or maybe sign it separately in another room, but I can’t use your pen. He said, ‘Well, I can make it nicer.’ Said, ‘What can you do?’ He said, ‘I’ll paint it black.’ I said, ‘That’s nice.’ ‘And I could even paint the White House on it, sir, if you like. In gold.’ Almost real gold. Not bad. ‘And I can even do your signature, sir.’ And by the way, this was not staged. I just saw the pens in there and I thought of this as an example of how $25 million spent by me at the Federal Reserve building would be a better job than $4 billion that they’re spending...." "...So I told that story to somebody who said, ‘Yeah, but I mean, but it’s not the same thing.’ And I said, ‘You’re right. This one is better. It writes.’ So the guy said to me, ‘You don’t have to pay me, sir. I’ll give them to you for nothing.’ I said, ‘No, I don’t want that. Let me pay you. I want to pay you.’ ‘No, sir. You don’t have to. You’re the president of the United States.’ He was shocked. The head of Sharpie gets a call. I don’t even know who the hell he is. He said, ‘Is this really the president?’ He said, ‘No, you don’t have to pay me, sir. This is such an honor.’ I said, ‘Nope, I want to pay you.’ He said, ‘What would you like to pay?’ I said, ‘How about five bucks a pen?’ They said, he said, ‘That’s all right.’ Whatever the hell we agreed to, peanuts as opposed to a thousand. And these were thousand dollar pens and we were giving them out sometimes, you know, you were there for signings. I’d have 30, 40 people standing behind me. I’d give out 40 pens to people. Then somebody would say, ‘Could I have a couple extra?’ This way I go like this. ‘You want five? Here, take five.’ But the bottom line is they’re better pens. It’s a business story. So for $5, could be zero, but for $5 I get a much better pen than for $1,000 and I could hand them out and actually they become hot as a pistol. So what can I tell you?"

Literally zero redeeming qualities
