it's so strange that he actually could take a teeny weeny bit of credit for the fast development of vaccines but 1) he doesn't and 2) his moron followers don't trust the vaccine that he could be taking some credit for. Because of dumb stuff they read on the internet. Such a ridiculous unforced error on his part.

Hah, like there is such a thing as an unforced error in trumpworld.
The followers don't have any trouble holding contradictory positions as long as all of them can be spun to be laudatory of the god-emperor.
1. The virus is a dangerous bioweapon intentionally unleashed by the wily Chinese Communists to destroy our precious way of life. Only Trump with his manly manliness was able to do the right thing and stand up to those godless bastards with his prescient travel ban. MAGA!
2. The virus is actually not that big a deal, the flu kills way more people anyways. And Democrat health officials are classifying deaths from car accidents as COVID deaths, just to obtain more control. Only Trump with his excellent brain could tell that it was an overblown threat ginned up by evil Fauci and the Deep State to control the lives of our noble patriots. MAGA!
3. The virus would have been a WAY more serious threat, had it not been for the lightning-fast rapid vaccine development enabled by Trump's quick thinking and excellent brain. Had he not acted as he did, millions would be dying in the streets. Thanks, DJT! MAGA!
4. Vaccines are a crock; we should all have been taking hydroxychloroquinine with a bleach chaser and a sunlight enema long ago, and everything would be fine. But the lying deep state pedophiles like Fauci, who are in league with AOC and the FAKE NEWS MEDIA, don't want you to know that. Because they want to control every aspect of your lives. Only Trump with his excellent brain could see through the establishment's lies and see the Truth. MAGA!
There's really no problem believing all these things simultaneously as long as they all end with MAGA!

You’re right but if he had done a better job taking credit for the vaccine maybe he could have attracted some non-true-believers. Wouldn’t have been that hard to do but he was just too lazy or undisciplined.

idk I think journalists are spending the appropriate amount of time on Trump right now, you barely hear him mentioned on the news lately (outside of "the previous administration really fucked this up"), something like this really should get the spotlight as a reminder of how absolutely pathetic the entire GOP is

Former President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort has closed its dining room and suspended beach club services to guests due to a Covid-19 outbreak among "some" staff, according to an email sent to members Friday afternoon and shared with CNN.The email says the closure is out of "an abundance of caution."Banquet and event services remain open, the email says, adding: "We have already undertaken all appropriate response measures in accordance with CDC guidance, including activating a thorough sanitization and cleaning of any affected areas and all club facilities, and we will continue our heightened environmental cleaning regimen."

call me naive, but i think it's going to happen. it may suck and immediately fall apart, or it may actually attract a bunch of people. it makes too much sense for it not happen, especially given that everyone involved is either desperate for money or desperate to throw money at things.
the more interesting thing, i think, will be what they'll do when all fascists and militia groups establish their presence (on day 1, i'd guess). i would assume that any trump social network will do zero "moderation". so what does that mean when he's hosting stormfront?
― Zach_TBD (Karl Malone), Sunday, 21 March 2021 19:51 (three years ago) link
Same--with all that money out there just waiting to be milked, I'd be surprised if they didn't at least get it off the ground. I'm interested in how much attention is paid to it by CNN and such. If there's little or none, I expect Trump would quickly lose interest.

this will collapse if the apple app store doesn't host it. this means it will have to commit to certain moderation standards, which means that trump would not be able to speak freely on the app the way he once did on twitter.

If it's anything at all, it'll be a knockoff Gab with Trump's name stamped on it (big shiny gold logo) and one of the least attractive user bases in media. Smaller, too, because every time a high-profile account migrates from one platform to another they lose a sizable percentage of followers just due to attrition. I guarantee Trump has no idea how much of a money sink social media networks are in general (Twitter wasn't profitable until 2019, and both revenues and profits have declined since) and will lose interest incredibly rapidly if any of his own money is at risk.
― but also fuck you (unperson), Sunday, 21 March 2021 20:43 (three years ago) link
i would guess he's less in it for the money and more for having a platform where people pay attention to him and he can guarantee that any critical voice will be outnumbered

The big guy wandered into a wedding reception and toasted the happy couple:
“Y’know, I just got, I turned off the news, I get all these flash reports, and they’re telling me about the border, they’re telling me about China, they’re telling me about Iran—how’re we doing with Iran, howdya like that? Boy, they were ready to make a deal, they woulda done anything, they woulda done anything, and this guy goes and drops the sanctions and then he says, ‘We’d love to negotiate now,’ ‘We’re not dealing with the United States at all,’ oh, well, they don’t want to deal with us. And China, the same thing, they never treated us that way, right? You saw what happened a few days ago, was terrible, and uh, the border is not good, the border is the worst anybody’s ever seen it, and what you see now, multiply it times 10, Jim — he’s the only one I know who would handle the border tougher than me. We have to, and the tough is... in the most humanitarian way, because that’s what it is. What’s happening to the kids, they’re living in squalor, they are living like nobody has ever seen anybody, there’s never been anything like what’s, and you’re gonna have hundreds, and you have it now, they have the airplane photos, the shocks, and they call ’em shocks, and these things are showing thousands and thousands of people coming up from South America and it’s gonna be, it’s just uh, look, it’s a disaster. It’s a humanitarian disaster from their standpoint, and it’s gonna destroy the country, and frankly, the country can’t afford it because you’re talking about massive, just incredibly massive amounts. Our school systems, our hospital systems, everything. So it’s a rough thing, and I just say, ‘Do you miss me yet?’ We did get 75 million votes, nobody’s ever gotten that. They said, ‘Get 66 million votes, sir, and the election’s over.’ We got 75 million and they said... but you know, you saw what happened, 10:30 in the evening, all of a sudden I said, ‘That’s a strange thing, why are they closing up certain places, right?’ Now, a lot of things happening right now, I just wanted to say, it’s an honor to be here, it’s an honor to have you at Mar-a-Lago, you are a great and beautiful couple.”
