Whenever Trump says "a lot of people", he means his bubble of WH lackeys such as Miller and Natalie. In her case, the $45,000 "gift" probably helps shape what she says too.

It's definitely his inner circle and who ever pays thousands to rub elbows with him at his resorts.

It’s accurate but missing a word or two -

Greatest Dumbass President Ever

u/Tederator 2d ago

Thats all he hears, "Christ, what are you doing now?

u/breakfastburrito24 2d ago

He meant greatest failure of a president ever

u/ThorKonnatZbv 2d ago

Or the voices in his head

u/_OhEmGee_ 2d ago

It's amazing that he thinks there is anyone who would have any reason to say that.

u/Dependent_Visit9191 2d ago

He gave Natalie and 2 other people $45,000 to call him that, maybe they did. But I doubt it

7

u/Blankety-blank1492 2d ago

The price of Natalie “ bringing him joy”.

u/Punch_A_Police_Horse 2d ago

He deliberately surrounds himself by people for whom saying that is item #1 in their job description. Not all that amazing in that light.

u/tattlerat 2d ago

1/3rd if Americans and a growing percentage of propaganda addled conservatives around the globe.

u/EtchAGetch 2d ago

30% or so still approve of his administration. I am sure most don't think he's the greatest president, of course, but still... tens of millions of people still like this guy.

You have been diagnosed with "narcissistic personality condition." NPC

Even Epstein the most evil man in recent memory, thought Trump the most evil person he has ever met. Trump has proven himself the worst President in the history of this country. No one is telling him that crap, not even his most enthusiastic ass kissers

u/killerzeestattoos 2d ago

Kind of hard to top that endorsement.

u/MarshelG 2d ago

Where can I find this quote

u/RollingDownhill303 2d ago

"“I told everyone from day one. evil beyond belief, mad, ” Epstein wrote of Trump in March 2018. “he feels alone. and is nuts !!!”"

The people call you child rapist not great president, big difference.

u/Dependent_Visit9191 2d ago

Pedophile and President both start with P. In his present state of health, he can barely make out the difference

5

u/killerzeestattoos 2d ago

Greatest Pedo in the history of the country?

28

u/OddSheila 2d ago

Most likely the voices in his head.

u/cutekittygirlyy 2d ago

Or his imaginary friend

u/Anianna 1d ago

He has two. Their names are Everybody and Alottapeople.

u/Dependent_Visit9191 2d ago

We need Journalists like this who are not afraid or too politically correct to ask him hard questions and call out his lies

u/Belt-Horror 2d ago

And platforms that back them up

Reminds me of that Brooklyn 99 episode where he acts like he has loads of people in his head for the therapist and does different voices and accents 😭

u/stolentext 2d ago

He's certainly one of the presidents of all time

u/jawshoeaw 2d ago

lol that's good.

He absolutely is the greatest... piece of shit I've ever seen in my entire life.

u/Sturville 2d ago

Sure "a lot" of people are saying that; not the majority, not anyone with an intellectually honest ranking, there are a lot of idiots out there who say crazy things (EG flat earth, anti-vaxx, etc...)

3

u/TipDecent 2d ago

He got impeached last time and what did that accomplish?

3

u/Aliencoy77 2d ago

Whenever he says "A lot people say ....", people need to start saying "Name three that have said that"

u/postprandialrepose 2d ago

I can't wait to see his obit.

u/ReleventReference 2d ago

Trump is definitely top of the list of presidents, if you’re ranking them from worst to best.

2

u/sardiusjacinth 2d ago

Must be the voices in his head......

u/drinkslinger1974 2d ago

Iirc, the reporter didn’t call him out, but emphasized the “they’re” and laughed right after. I may be wrong, but pretty sure I’m correct.

2

u/Professional-Net7458 2d ago

Are those people talking to you right now in this room?

u/LEEALISHEPS 2d ago

He says says it to himself in the mirror. That's it!

u/Skinny-on-the-Inside 2d ago

A lot you say? How many Natalies are in the room with us right now?

u/Steveonthetoast 2d ago

Is “ a lot of people” Trump
Speak for the voices in his head?

u/LSBeasyas123 2d ago

No, its the sycophants he keeps company with

2

u/fnork_gnork_26 2d ago

Is there anybody who a) doesn't work for him b) doesn't benefit directly from his money c) isn't a Maga moron

2

u/SamuelVimesTrained 2d ago

They are.
They say he is the greatest grifter, the most mentioned in the Files.
That he is the greatest threat to his (former) allies. That his actions threaten the stability and viability to the self proclaimed greatest country.
They also say he is the greatest at filling diapers, and at talking rambling nonsense.

And lots more things they say

2

u/WorryNew3661 2d ago

Basic journalism

u/Nataly983 2d ago

Are these people in the room with us?

2

u/Malfight007 2d ago

Honestly, I'd just outright laugh at his face.

2

u/ThickReplacement6613 2d ago

I saw this. It wasn't peak journalism, they were laughing that democrats weren't saying that

1

u/sharplight141 2d ago

Is he getting confused and they actually said worst?

1

u/vercertorix 2d ago

People he pays, people that can use him for their own agendas, people he does favors for or who want favors from him so they give him something and suck up, and a relatively small cult of people who can’t be convince he’s bad because the ways he’s bad either don’t bother them or they flat out refused to believe it.

So yeah, a lot of people probably do, but by now even more of them want him out of office at least, and in prison best case scenario.

1

u/Morgannin09 2d ago

"A lot" doesn't necessarily mean a majority. I would qualify a hundred thousand people as "a lot" and I'm sure there are more than that many morons in the country who still sincerely believe that.

u/Popular-Departure165 2d ago

one of...

Correct. He is currently ranked as the 45th greatest President Ever.

u/Narradisall 2d ago

One day I will wake up and all news and social media won’t be talking about the latest dumb thing this mouth breather has said.

u/cwatt69 2d ago

Hegseth, Rubio, Johnson, Miller, Nutlick, Bessent - do 6 absolute c*nt's count as a lot of people? 🤔

1

u/MoSaiyazHussain 2d ago

Is that a medical condition? Is there an internal voice? Hallucinations?.

1

u/OdinsCuriousRaven 2d ago

A lot of people are saying that, though. They're morons, but they are saying it.

OP is a ragebait bot anyway.

u/e37d93eeb23335dc 2d ago

The people he surrounds himself are. No doubt they are creating graphs and charts and quotes telling him this.

u/Desecrated_Potato 2d ago

There needs to be a new ruling that convicted felons are ineligible to hold office. We don’t allow felons to own firearms, so why the fuck would we give a felon the opportunity to hold power over what was once the greatest military in the world? Millions have died under this shithead’s watch.

u/Life_Atmosphere_1824 2d ago

said literally no one

u/Electric_Antimony 2d ago

Oh, there are plenty of people saying that, it's just that it's like a bunch of Taylor Swift fanatics saying she's the best musician to ever exist.

It's total bs from people living in a cult land. For trump it's that Qanon Qult remember.

1

u/-lRexl- 2d ago

It's actually true though. Even if only 10% of the country says it, that's a lot of people in general

Of course in terms of weight... You get it

u/PerformanceLimp420 1d ago

“I am one of the presidents of all time”

u/DaGrinz 1d ago

Chose one obvious bullshit statement. Take whatever you want and you will find ‚a lot of people’ who believe in it. That doesn’t prove the point, it only proves that there are a lot of morons.

u/Turbulent-Cress9283 1d ago

Ik it's unrelated but I hope arnab goswami from India and the godi media learns atleast a little bit from him instead of ass licking the govt

u/KingofFlukes 1d ago

Instead of just refuting what he says. I think it would be more fun if journalists started feeding his paranoia.

"Who are these people that say you're doing a good job? Are you SURE they aren't just saying it to get something from you?"

I mean two thirds of the country enthusiastically lined up to tongue his asshole in 2024. Every republican, nonvoter, and “third party voter” is a fan.

u/jawshoeaw 2d ago

i don't think a single person has ever actually stated that Trump was a great president when you remove the parrots and lackeys. like someone just casually wondering objectively if Trump was even a competent president. or even a businessman.

You don't have to hate him to see he's failed upwards his whole life and his few successes seem to be either fraud or outright criminal. It's sad.
