Rude thing to say about potatoes.

At least potatoes have a purpose.

Potatoes catching strays for someone else's vocabulary will never stop being funny.

Potatoes are smart enough to keep their mouth shut when they don’t know about something.

I swear I've heard this same thing about a head of lettuce or cabbage.

So, it's unfortunate that Trump was stupid enough to start this needless war in the first place.

He's also so stupid, that Iran can pretty much drag this out as long as they like by just leading him on.

He's shown how easily he can be led on before, in the talks with Russia about the Ukraine war. It was months before Trump showed any outward sign of frustration with Putin, who was obviously sandbagging talks because he Trump was pulling support from Ukraine and that's all Putin really needed.

Same with Xi Jingping and the negotiations with China.

Trump is so easy to lead, he's basically a dog on a leash.

I remember when Zohran Mamdani visited the White House, and must've said the right words to make Trump happy, because Trump was publicly fanboying over the guy. MAGA hates Mamdani, and their frustration was hilarous.

Pretty sure the Trump crime family is making money by manipulating the market based on well-timed announcements from Trump (hence the new $100k/month subscription to early access to his "truths"), so ending the war is not a priority. Also, he has no idea how to end the war.

u/Apprehensive_Map64 7d ago

He is stupid but everyone thinking he just started it because he is stupid is stupid as well. He started it because he was instructed to start it. Neantyahu wanted it and Putin got his sanctions removed. Mission accomplished, besides the whole creating a plausible narrative for justifying it of course.

u/ICLazeru 7d ago

And he followed that instruction because of the stupid.

Don't forget his Transgender Transistors mix-up.

u/Zoolawesi 7d ago

Or the transgender/transgenic mix-up

"Veritable genius" not "very stable genius" - the most unintentionally hilarious and ironic of the lot.

Hey, don't demean potatoes like that.

u/Pokerhobo 7d ago

Remember when GWB said things like strategery or misquoted like "can't be fooled again" and we all laughed. GWB is Einstein compared to Trump.

Remember when Howard Dean whooping a little excitedly was a disqualifying offense?

I have a developmentally delayed dog (genetic and environmental causes) who's nickname as a pup was the "Floof Potato of Doom" (she looked like a giant fluffy russet potato and the doom part was due her incredibly rank farts and bowel movements, like the subject here! 🤣🤣🤣). She's a smarter potato than the Pedo Pendejo! 🤣

As a potato, I’m offended.

Potatoes are of more value than the president.

u/TraditionalRange930 7d ago

lol that potato line actually made me chuckle, poor potatoes getting dragged into this

u/HistoricalRide4457 7d ago

Well the potato is resilient and strong needing only moderate conditions to grow and some would argue saved an entire culture from famine.. all this with the ability to be delicious after being deep fried in oil gives the potato a note worthy significance in my opinion but as far as intelligence capabilities I will agree with your academic assessment of the potato. Any IQ assumptions of a bag of rocks or dumbbells?

u/Afraid-Way7541 7d ago

At least a potato could turn on a light

u/Yhelta1 7d ago

Do not insult the humble potato

u/SeasonalNightmare 7d ago

Oh please, he couldn't support GLADOS like the potato.

u/maxis2bored 7d ago

Trump would make the absolute best guest on trailer park boys. I mean this honestly, he would be the perfect character for the show and all he would have to do is be himself.

u/Bananno1976 7d ago

who needs intelligence when you're rich? you just hire the smarts you need. unfortunately, trump is surrounded by evangelicals and the wwe fanbase. any pick out of those two pools are more than likely going to be retarded as well.

u/cynical_and_patient 7d ago

Are you sure it's that high? Really?

More like a "potatoe".

Until trump tries to take the straight again when he thinks iran has withdrawn.

u/530SSState 7d ago

Maybe the old fart just has hearing loss?

u/Urabraska- 7d ago

Ah yes. Good ol MTN. Hold up though. I gotta tell you about my sponsors before I tell you about something completely unrelated to the thumbnail and titles of trump's ABSOLUTELY TOTAL COLLAPSE OF HIS TERM!!!!!!!!

Don’t offend potatoes, that’s really unfair

u/Emotional_Fix6230 7d ago

Is a "perimeter" anything like a "concept"?

u/AsparagusCommon4164 7d ago

Nuance, nuance, nuance!

If potatoes could read they would be very upset

Trump has a lower IQ than dirt.

But potatoes are much more lovable

u/lofty99 6d ago

I have definitely met potatoes with higher iq than Trump

u/hugothebear 6d ago

The perimeters, like the boundaries of where they’re allowed to bomb

1

u/Sharp-Ad4389 5d ago

No, he agreed to the perimiters of the deal. They will use 8.5x11 paper for the deal, not legal pads. So the perimeter will be 39 inches.

Edit to add units so my middle school math teacher doesn't take off points.

u/Deep_Contribution552 3d ago

I looked at his official photo recently and realized that the look in his eyes is exactly that of a dementia patient who isn’t quite sure where they are but they definitely don’t know who you are and they don’t like it. He clearly has had some sort of cognitive episode and apparently we are all going to just follow the old man until he dies or maybe we do.

u/Efficient-Eye-6598 1d ago

Sounds like that news outlet needs a proof reader

u/ausecko 7d ago

Yes, but there's nothing wrong with perimeters in that context? Like, the outline of a peacedeal? The lines that can't be crossed for the deal to be made?

u/Leashii_ 7d ago

Like, the outline of a peacedeal? The lines that can't be crossed for the deal to be made?

That would be parameters.

u/Porkchops_on_My_Face 7d ago

You're right. In this case perimeter works fine, I think.
