The smart play would be to make a deck of media hoaxes, lying journalists, and data that pokes holes in the narrative. Cat cards would make the perfect stocking stuffer.
Hey, with the Stetler ones, they could maybe finally have a use for all the evil white male Mr. Potato Head bodies left over after they emasculated the original Mr. P-Head!
This really is a great idea! I immediately flashed to the terrorist deck for the most wanted back in W's day. Spades could be the media and the Ace of Spades, CNN. Or NYT. So many choices. Perhaps a suit (♥️ ?) for health care and pharma, diamonds for the Biden Crime Family & Associates. I think we're gonna need a bigger deck!
For Christmas, a few years back, I got one of those red maga hats for my brother...because he couldn't stand Trump. The thing was smashed flatter than a pancake when it was delivered to me. Call me a conspiracy theorist...again....but I think someone knew what was in the box.
Nothing wrong with seeing him as he is. He did some great things as Potus, he outed the Swamp for all the world to see. But he cannot and will not learn from his mistakes and haul in his massive ego.
Good response. There seem to be a number of people lately trying to insert or rewrite words and thoughts that originate from the writer. Not sure what’s going on.
I agree. The whole Trump Card thing was completely ridiculous and I can’t imagine anyone thinking it’s a good idea except for the fervent Trump fans. Just wasn’t sure who had seen the video.
I have to say that was an excellent speech by Trump. It is just what is needed. Yes he has substantial flaws, jab promotion being at the top of the list, but he’s still much better than current leadership including RINOs. Which is admittedly saying almost nothing. We have to keep in mind that if Hillary had stolen the 2016 election we would already be under the full yoke of the Great Reset. My preference is for DeSantis but we really need him in FL. Sad that our choice of leaders is so paltry.
Yep. I don't any GOP/conservative Potus can change much anymore. Maybe we can't even get one elected again, with all the fraud. It's better to start building alternatives based on strong Red states. DeSantis and Abbott can lead the way.
Whoever advised for this or was unsuccessful in preventing it, should be banished to the cold, barren outskirts of Antarctica to never politically advise anyone every again.
It's like when he had a sports team over to the WH for McDonald's meals - most anyone reading bad cattitude probably didn't approve of that. But a lot of people did. I fell for the joke with the cards for a moment, felt surprised and disappointed, then found the real post, and it felt like when he was back in office, when stuff got done... wars weren't started, borders weren't dropped. He won't be elected by sounding "right" and doing what people approve of. He does what he wants, and that's why he's such a danger to the DS. To me, the important part is that he put out a specific plan, so no matter what else happens, that will exist for anyone to implement, were they to be in a position to.
But why give your opponents the ammunition in the first place? It's a completely self-inflicted wound that serves no purpose at all and only allows the media to mock Trump while ignoring this actual proposal.
I dunno. He did promise a vaccine safety commission while campaigning for 2016 until he took pharma money to shut it down (this according to RFK who was to head it). So clearly aware of vaccine problems which he did speak on prior to being elected.
Uughhhh.....just what the world needs right now.... no, not trading cards.....how about some actual , verifiable ACTION that would translate in helping humanity....use your power for good.....that would make you look like a superhero....not this.....
Many conservatives are peeling away from Trump. Two things he should do to bring them back: apologise for pushing the death shot, and help the J6 prisoners whom he egged on.
Now that he's trolled you and everybody else and gotten the predictable response, how do you like his real announcement today? Slightly more important, I'd say.
honestly, i think he totally buried it and that no one will notice it because of the cards
i also think it's a fairly weak protection that will be flouted blatantly by agencies, esp through cutouts and that, because it's an executive order, it can be undone at a stroke by the next president.
i mean, it's an important concept, but i'm not terribly compelled by the actor or the implementation.
Hopefully there will be enough "influence" from THIS that elected leaders will try to "front run" it, and pass it themselves into law (against collusion or censorship from the government). Honestly though, why do we need a law that is already plainly outlined in the Constitution's 1st amendment?
This is ALREADY illegal -- but the people in charge are ignoring it because they're the ones benefitting. The question is -- what are we going to do about it?
It looked fake to me right away. I did a quick search for 'trump cards' and the search results proved it. Yes, I suppose the brain dead and rabbid anti Trump team will fail to see the troll.
I'll repeat this for the 1,000th time: Trump has his faults but he most certainly was much preferable to his rivals in 2016 and in 2020. By far. And faults and all, he always came across as someone who loves is country which is more than can be said for your current leader.
First, search results don't "prove" anything. I just did the same search using DuckDuckGo and did not turn up a single first-page hit claiming it's a hoax.
If it is a hoax, it's pretty clever in that it's probably making someone a lot of money and it almost completely defanged Trump's other announcement. If it's not a hoax, well, he shot himself in the foot.
Huh, I would wonder if it was perpetrated by the Republican party except I don't think they tend to do such a good-quality work. All kinds of fun speculation is possible.
If a hoax, it's good enough to have taken in the likes of Jeff Childers, el Gato Malo, The Hill, and major news outlets (not that the latter is much indication of anything).
I think he alienated a shit-ton of people, then offered up window dressing that is mostly covered by the 1st Amendment, and let's him make new rules!! Which every president craves now...
AFAIK aside from very vaguely making soothing noises about "your rights" he has done or promised nothing about reversing or preventing COVID and other public health authoritarianism, including disavowing the vaccines.
So I'm off the Trump train until that- at a minimum- happens.
Hard pass. There are a bunch of Trump supporters (I’m one) who are interested in Trump policies but not Trump, the “superhero.” This is more like Trump, the superhuckster.
So, again, Trump should have said NO to the CDC, NIH, FDA and his reason would have been what? He should have publicly declared, “ I think they’re lying to me , I think they’re covering up something, this vaccine has not been tested” ??? How was Trump supposed to think the vaccines out ?
"Doctor" Debbie Birx's recent "book" outlines exactly why DJT was no position at all to question these hand picked experts. Debbie is proud of subverting Pence also.
No, he should have said no to them because the government actions were unconstitutional. Or they would be unconstitutional if the bill of rights was actually being followed. In any case, the pandemic response was a fatal mistake and any bureaucrat involved in creating it should be fired.
You’re correct. But the Constitution and Bill of Rights have been arbitrarily followed for several decades now. Everything is partisan, including the judges ruling on the constitutionality of government actions. Pelosi would have started impeachment proceedings immediately even though legally she was wrong. It was a lose lose for Trump on the vaccines. History will excoriate him and Fauci will be the sainted recipient of endless lifetime achievement awards. It makes me sick.
True. But none of that excuses Trump’s decision to go along with the covidians. “Just following orders” is not an excuse, especially when Trump was the one supposedly giving the orders.
The problem is that he's never repented for the murder of millions of people. That one fact makes him no better than ANYONE on the side of Big Pharma and its shills.
From COVID or the vaccine? That would be an awesome way for him to bow out.... take responsibility for the vaccines being lethal but placing blame squarely on the shoulders of Fauci, O Connor ( NIH guy) the FDA.. “ I trusted them. They were lying to me. Why would they do that?” Open ended questions. Trump needs to take his leave, Fauci et all need to be prosecuted.
Is this the big announcement a fundraiser? Is it a joke? All the propaganda and death and this is important? trump advisors are gone off the road. How about some Trump sponsored ivermectin or Hcq tablets?.I guess these cards might compete with the fauxchi voodoo dolls as ornaments
Update. Oh thank goodness so his big announcement was free speech and the punishment of those who have prevented free speech over the last who knows how many years and the cards were a side kick. sanity prevails.🙂
My hope is Trump realizes the vaccine is his undoing and instead of running is committing political suicide or just the cringe has completely destroyed his mind.
The smart play would be to make a deck of media hoaxes, lying journalists, and data that pokes holes in the narrative. Cat cards would make the perfect stocking stuffer.
Karen Cards. (You can run with that one, Yuri. LMK if you need design help)
Jokers wild!
Great idea! But, that would be about someone other than Trump.
If hes going to have his own cards he needs to include his signature Trump:
-bioweapon warp speed card
-Pharma shill card (logos of pharma who lobby him on his shirt)
-vaccines saved millions of lives card, brought to you by Pfizer shirt included!
-early monoclonals save lives but I didn't order enough for people who qualify card
That's the point!
This is genius... looking for investors? I’m in... “ Get out of Pelosi Pokey card...” Stelter, Toobin (!!!) my brain is buzzing!!! 😂😂😂
“Get out of Pelosi” visions are going to need weeks of counselling and some strong prescription only drugs to recover from.
Hey, with the Stetler ones, they could maybe finally have a use for all the evil white male Mr. Potato Head bodies left over after they emasculated the original Mr. P-Head!
We really need a “I’m laughing” icon.
hehehehee
Where do I order!!!?
This really is a great idea! I immediately flashed to the terrorist deck for the most wanted back in W's day. Spades could be the media and the Ace of Spades, CNN. Or NYT. So many choices. Perhaps a suit (♥️ ?) for health care and pharma, diamonds for the Biden Crime Family & Associates. I think we're gonna need a bigger deck!
You're not fooling us, you're not. We're on to your sly Soviet disinformation tactics!
Seriously though, such cards could also be the basis for a new line of greeting cards, to be sent to our NPC friends and relatives.
But that wouldn't promote _Trump_.
The purpose of the trading cards is to boost his own ego.
I don't really think that particular ego needs a boost.
I still expect plenty of people to buy them.
I really thought this was some kind of joke. That it couldn't be real.
Really. Stupid. Idea.
I have a friend who is going to...and he thinks crypto is unsound.
A Trump NFT tho? Where does he sign up?? 😵
For Christmas, a few years back, I got one of those red maga hats for my brother...because he couldn't stand Trump. The thing was smashed flatter than a pancake when it was delivered to me. Call me a conspiracy theorist...again....but I think someone knew what was in the box.
He could be the Joker card
Or the pandemic grifter board game based on Monopoly
Remember those stupid "Garbage Pail Kids" cards? I am getting a vision...
The ACTUAL announcement - https://twitter.com/bennyjohnson/status/1603469594580160528
Um, pretty sure that's already illegal. 🤷
That must be why it hasn't been happening for years.
Pretty sure lack of enforcement due to corrupted Justice, et al is why it *has* been happening for years.
Lol... add some villains; "Crooked Hillary," "Rappy Joe," "Bad Cat," oh the possibilities. Lol!
Ohhhhhh this is awesome!!!
I cringed so hard I'm now at the orthopedist.
This was the real announcement:
https://twitter.com/JackPosobiec/status/1603438724200558592?s=20&t=-9GZOeEJ_vuqwhDty7AClg
Yes, I'm aware.
My response stands.
Honestly... its like this gets to sort out the cult from the " yeah, I liked his presidency, mostly"
I had Trump fever, but I'm starting to feel a little better.
Nothing wrong with seeing him as he is. He did some great things as Potus, he outed the Swamp for all the world to see. But he cannot and will not learn from his mistakes and haul in his massive ego.
I liked he beat Hillary. That was funny as fuck.
Good response. There seem to be a number of people lately trying to insert or rewrite words and thoughts that originate from the writer. Not sure what’s going on.
I've developed a very thorny and ever-vigilant defense matrix around issues like "I know what I fucking said." :)
I have more of a problem with " Did I say that out loud??"
I agree. The whole Trump Card thing was completely ridiculous and I can’t imagine anyone thinking it’s a good idea except for the fervent Trump fans. Just wasn’t sure who had seen the video.
Fairly certain the first amendment covers all that.
I have to say that was an excellent speech by Trump. It is just what is needed. Yes he has substantial flaws, jab promotion being at the top of the list, but he’s still much better than current leadership including RINOs. Which is admittedly saying almost nothing. We have to keep in mind that if Hillary had stolen the 2016 election we would already be under the full yoke of the Great Reset. My preference is for DeSantis but we really need him in FL. Sad that our choice of leaders is so paltry.
Totally agree about DeSantis. He’d be my choice for 2024 but he can do so much more for Florida.
Yep. I don't any GOP/conservative Potus can change much anymore. Maybe we can't even get one elected again, with all the fraud. It's better to start building alternatives based on strong Red states. DeSantis and Abbott can lead the way.
If this is about banning gov agencies from colluding with private companies to impinge on free speech ..it is already illegal.
The problem is Justice Dept looking the other way & providing cover instead of enforcing existing laws.
Exactly. Our DOJ is useless and corrupt.
Whoever advised for this or was unsuccessful in preventing it, should be banished to the cold, barren outskirts of Antarctica to never politically advise anyone every again.
How about a series of Fauci Lies trading cards.
I'll play my trump card: "masks are not going to protect you, you should double mask".
It beats out all others including "it almost sointanly definitely would be helpful to ___________ (fill in the blank)"
It’s going to be a very big deck
This🔽
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Most-wanted_Iraqi_playing_cards
But with the top 52 who committed and are continuing to perpetrate crimes against humanity.
I guess if it's a Fauci deck we can just have 24302 jokers?
Sprinkle in several Joe Isuzu and Mr Haney cards amongst them.
It won't be a deck of cards; it'll be confetti.
Thinking the same
I don't see any path to profitability here, so for those reasons -- I'm out.
I see what you did there!
The actual announcement - https://twitter.com/bennyjohnson/status/1603469594580160528
He should have led with that and left the collectable NFTs in the trash.
Yep. It was like Mike Lindell intermixing his "Stop the fraud!" campaign with "Buy my pillows!"
It's like when he had a sports team over to the WH for McDonald's meals - most anyone reading bad cattitude probably didn't approve of that. But a lot of people did. I fell for the joke with the cards for a moment, felt surprised and disappointed, then found the real post, and it felt like when he was back in office, when stuff got done... wars weren't started, borders weren't dropped. He won't be elected by sounding "right" and doing what people approve of. He does what he wants, and that's why he's such a danger to the DS.

But why give your opponents the ammunition in the first place? It's a completely self-inflicted wound that serves no purpose at all and only allows the media to mock Trump while ignoring this actual proposal.
Ron DeSantis would not make this mistake.
The problem is that most normies won't see beyond the stupid NFT scam. They'll think he's lost the plot.
It's already illegal under the 1st amendment.
The problem is enforcement.
He’s actively trying to lose. Why?
The Washington Generals of the Uniparty. Either that, or he's soaking up the media criticism so DeSantis won't have to.
He knows he aint running because he knows he will have to answer for Warp Speed. He's just grifting money out of his cult while he can.
I dunno. He did promise a vaccine safety commission while campaigning for 2016 until he took pharma money to shut it down (this according to RFK who was to head it). So clearly aware of vaccine problems which he did speak on prior to being elected.
Yea whatever his reasoning (or perhaps a complete lack of), he pretty much screwed himself.
Because I have written him multiple times begging him to do so??
🤣
Or he just doesn’t listen because he knows better
noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.gif
Screaming in a void? I’ll join you.
Uughhhh.....just what the world needs right now.... no, not trading cards.....how about some actual , verifiable ACTION that would translate in helping humanity....use your power for good.....that would make you look like a superhero....not this.....
Many conservatives are peeling away from Trump. Two things he should do to bring them back: apologise for pushing the death shot, and help the J6 prisoners whom he egged on.
He won because of who he ran against
Best analysis of Trump vs Hillary from someone who doesn’t like either, Scott Horton
https://youtu.be/aj-XjgZIuoU
As we see with the Biden admin, actual competence doesn't matter when you have the media running cover for you.
Pro-liberty in a kind of Lucretia Borgia/Lady McBeth kinda way, you mean?
Same thinking if Moe from the Three Stooges became President. Strong leader. No brains. Fails at everything 😂😂
Now that he's trolled you and everybody else and gotten the predictable response, how do you like his real announcement today? Slightly more important, I'd say.
honestly, i think he totally buried it and that no one will notice it because of the cards

But you are if he's putting out cards!

AFAIK aside from very vaguely making soothing noises about "your rights" he has done or promised nothing about reversing or preventing COVID and other public health authoritarianism, including disavowing the vaccines.
So I'm off the Trump train until that- at a minimum- happens.
I'll get plenty of hate...but I'm starting to look at everyone who'd excited about these cards ...like they're wearing masks walking outdoors...
*who's
It was pretty meh to be honest.
what else did he say that is SLIGHTLY more important? (cue the jeopardy music NOW)
That he wants to duplicate protections already available so that he can put his name to another EO??
Crap! Now I gotta see what else DJT said.
Following history is really a chore...
😎
Brilliant 64D chess! Two more weeks! I don't need to be trolled by Trump. I just want him to leave his ego aside and do something to save the US.
Yesireee ... bob's yer uncle.
Nothing .... nothing (bold/underline) he does is happenstance. It is premeditated.
Dumb like a fox.
I wonder if the women of The View lost their minds (yet again) over this?? 😂😂😂😂
Hard pass. There are a bunch of Trump supporters (I’m one) who are interested in Trump policies but not Trump, the “superhero.” This is more like Trump, the superhuckster.
I think he may officially be at the “ I just don’t give a shit anymore” and I don’t blame him. I actually hope this is his exit.
Of all the dumb ideas he's had, this is the second worst. Only his deadly clot shots were more poorly thought out.
So, again, Trump should have said NO to the CDC, NIH, FDA and his reason would have been what? He should have publicly declared, “ I think they’re lying to me , I think they’re covering up something, this vaccine has not been tested” ??? How was Trump supposed to think the vaccines out ?
"Doctor" Debbie Birx's recent "book" outlines exactly why DJT was no position at all to question these hand picked experts. Debbie is proud of subverting Pence also.
Steal the PDF online, it's not worth 10 cents.
Well, then her ass deserves to be indicted as well.

'Only his deadly clot shots were more poorly thought out.'
I don't think it matters who was president. I mean, look how the liberals flip-flopped as soon as Trump was out.
If Biden was in office when Operation Warp Speed rolled out, he already have won the Nobel Prize in Medicine!
Here is the serious announcement he made: https://twitter.com/jackposobiec/status/1603438724200558592?s=42&t=mKCHu9YIReaz6Pg-N60LPw
Yep, like Trump only knows. He announced the trading cards right before to garner attention as the major announcement. Always, a step ahead.
Next week, Trump Pokemons.
DeSantis 2024
Is this the big announcement a fundraiser? Is it a joke? All the propaganda and death and this is important? trump advisors are gone off the road. How about some Trump sponsored ivermectin or Hcq tablets?.I guess these cards might compete with the fauxchi voodoo dolls as ornaments
Update. Oh thank goodness so his big announcement was free speech and the punishment of those who have prevented free speech over the last who knows how many years and the cards were a side kick. sanity prevails.🙂
Can't wait until he releases his Very Trumpy Christmas Album! Serious presidential candidate, I tell you!
Yes! Featuring the newly formed dance troupe, the New York Trumpettes! And of course the dulcet tones of The Trumpeteers!
My hope is Trump realizes the vaccine is his undoing and instead of running is committing political suicide or just the cringe has completely destroyed his mind.
Oh for pete's sake. Please tell me this is a draft of a Babylon Bee piece.
