“But he plays dumb. It fools people.”

He doesn’t have to play smart or dumb, but adding fuel to the story is a losing strategy.

I respectfully disagree. Trump's way of speaking (I'm not talking about when he does social media trolling) with his off-the-cuff type remarks is charming. One of the reasons I voted for him is because he DOESN'T stop to think about how his next statement will help or hurt him PR wise.

So yeah, in the immediate sense, what Trump just said does undermine him by keeping the Epstein story alive. But in the broader sense, it helps him connect with people because we all know we're hearing what he really thinks, about Epstein or anything else.

This is ancient news. Just because Fake News Media is too stupid to know what they are talking about, you don’t need to join their party.

He’s got the world including the PIA European leaders following him. They’re going to him in the UK not the other way around

Economists and loud mouth media people are stuttering ‘uh the tariffs are god. Trump was right”

People care so much about Epstein

What’s next after this?

People always have to say Trump is dumb, narcissistic, hateful, ill-advised. I was don’t with it in 2015 and it’s very old now

He is successful and he’s going to become more successful Unless you want to step up and do what he’s doing, evade assassination attempts, stay out of jail, stay married and still manage to think straight

Not if he knows the actual truth of the matter and there is nothing to really see…. In regards to himself. At that point he is simply trolling.
