Trump Posts A ‘Highlight Reel’ Of Himself To Prove He’s Fit And Twitter Can’t Stop Laughing

According to disgraced, failed, one-term former president Donald Trump, he’s the most mentally and physically fit man to ever hold the office of President of the United States. After all, his booking form in Fulton County, Georgia listed his height and weight as 6-foot-3 and 215 pounds, even though that’s 30 pounds lighter than the weight he disclosed after his last official White House physical.

HuffPost reports that what got Donnie so upset and prompted him to post the video — entitled “Trump’s Got The Touch” — is a new poll which shows that 49% of Americans don’t think he’s mentally fit to be president again. Apparently, the disgraced ex-president wants to challenge Biden to some sort of competition.

“I will name the place and the test, and it will be a tough one,” Trump wrote. “Nobody will come even close to me! We can also throw some physical activity into it. I just won the Senior Club Championship at a big golf club, with many very good players. To do so you need strength, accuracy, touch and, above all, mental toughness.”

And then there’s the clip itself, which is described as, Trump “tossing the football as a younger man and recently in Iowa; celebrating a hole-in-one; making a free throw at Madison Square Garden; sinking a long putt; playing catch with Hall of Fame pitcher Mariano Rivera at the White House; and throwing out the ceremonial first pitch at a minor league baseball game.”

Watch “Trump’s Got The Touch” for yourself by clicking here, which will take you to the Truth Social posting/video.

The clip set off spasms of laughter and mockery on Twitter. Take a look:

AOC Claps Back HARD After Elon Musk Says She ‘Isn’t That Smart’

Twitter CEO Elon Musk found out the hard way that if you’re going to attack New York Democratic Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, you’d better bring more than some pathetic snarky putdown or else be prepared to suffer the consequences.

It seems that Musk saw a video from AOC in which she noted the stark difference in the number of immigrants being allowed into the United States these days versus the much reduced number of immigrants currently being accepted as potential citizens.

Ashely St. Clair of the right-wing Babylon Bee lamely called Ocasio-Cortez out.


That led Musk to join the debate, completely uninvited.

Not that smart? That’s laughable coming from a man who purchased Twitter for $44 billion and has almost driven it into the ground, watching the social media platform lose two-thirds of its total value in just a year’s time.

The Guardian reports:

Fidelity, an asset manager that held a stake in Twitter worth about $20m after Musk acquired the business for $44bn, said in a corporate filing that its stake was now worth just under $6.6m. That would value the overall company, now officially called X Holdings Corp after Musk’s early venture X.com, at just $14.75bn.

Ocasio-Cortez was only too happy to fire back at Musk.


When Musk attempted a retort, his response fell far short, much like his failing career in the business world.

Sorry, Elon, but no one is impressed by your massive failures. In fact, we kind of wish you’d buy a deserted island, move there, and never return.

Oh, and don’t take a cell phone or computer with you when you leave. No one wants to read your juvenile rantings.

Donald Trump Jr’s Twitter Account Gets Hacked – The Result Is Both Hilarious And Humiliating

The Twitter account belonging to Donald Trump Jr. was apparently hacked today, and several funny yet disturbing tweets were posted before he was able to regain control.

HuffPost reports that shortly after 8 a.m. Wednesday morning, and some strange things began appearing, including a tweet which suggested Don Jr’s father had died.

“I’m sad to announce, my father Donald Trump has passed away. I will be running for president in 2024.”

There were also posts that dealt with North Korea and the late sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, who was close friends with failed former president Donald Trump at one time.

A spokesperson for Don Jr. confirmed the account had indeed been taken over by someone.

How about we take a look at the other tweets sent via Junior’s account? After all, he would never ever send such things on social media, would he?

Maybe later today Don Jr. can do the entire world a favor and delete his Twitter account. No one wants to read what he has to say unless the hackers are in control.

MT Greene Tries To Pay Tribute To Jimmy Buffett And Humiliates Herself By Misspelling His Name

Georgia Republican Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene tried to attach her name to the death of legendary singer-songwriter Jimmy Buffett, who died on Friday, but all she managed to accomplish was drawing attention to the fact that she’s one of the dumbest people to ever serve in the U.S. Congress.

Hours after it was announced that Buffett had died at the age of 76 from lymphoma, Greene posted this on Twitter:

Very sad to hear that Jimmy Buffet passed away.

I’ve spent countless times on my boat or dock listening to his great timeless music.

Prayers for his family and friends. RIP..

As a dreamer of dreams and a travelin’ man I have chalked up many a mile Read dozens of books about heroes and crooks And I learned much from both of their styles Son of a son, son of a son Son of a son of a sailor

Here’s a screenshot in case the congresswoman decides to go back and correct or delete her tweet:

Jimmy Buffet? His last name was BUFFETT.

It’s one thing to say you’re a fan, but it’s quite another to make such a claim and not even spell the deceased person’s name correctly.

Greene also failed to mention that Buffett was a lifelong Democrat who supported progressive causes and even made fun of failed former president Donald Trump, Mediaite reports.

The Late Legendary “Margaritaville” singer Jimmy Buffett once roasted then-future President Donald Trump at a Hillary Clinton rally headlined by then-Vice President Joe Biden.

The social media reaction to Greene’s misspelled post was also hilarious.

Twitter Explodes With Disgust After Kyrsten Sinema Posts Bizarre ‘Barbenheimer’ Photo Online

Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (D-AZ), who desperately wants to remain marginally relevant as she watches her poll numbers for reelection in 2024 continue to slip, thought she’d found a novel way of inserting herself into a popular media trend that’s currently taking place at the box office.

CNN reports that it’s know as “Barbenheimer,” a mashup of two highly-anticipated movies that will be released on on the same day.

The films are “Barbie” and “Oppenheimer.”

It’s the cinematic event of the summer: Greta Gerwig’s splashy pink romp “Barbie” and Christopher Nolan’s “emotionally devastating” three-hour epic “Oppenheimer” will roll out in theaters this Thursday. Aside from their prestige-y creative teams, the films have little in common, but dedicated cinephiles are devoting a full day of their lives to both. (“Barbie” is being released by Warner Bros., which shares parent company Warner Bros. Discovery with CNN.)

It’s the “Barbenheimer” double feature, and it started its life, as most phenomena do, as a meme. But as more people tweeted fan-made posters of Margot Robbie’s Barbie smiling in front of a mushroom cloud, the idea of a day spent at the movies started to sound like a good idea. (AMC said this week that 40,000 moviegoers already bought tickets to see both films on the same day — double the number it reported last week.)

That’s where the Arizona Democrat comes into the picture. Or at least the way she attempted to insert herself into a cultural phenomenon and gain free publicity to boot, posting this on Twitter.

What in the hell is that, Kyrsten? Are we supposed to be impressed? Hell, we’re not even amused. Why? Because we’re too busy being annoyed as we recall how you voted against a $15 minimum wage with a hateful thumbs down gesture.

Sinema’s latest faux pas got her pilloried on social media.
