"Some of the things they're saying are... abysmal"
"I wish them luck"
Pick one.
As an aside, it seems OP is unfamiliar with the word abysmal. It's a word. It means bad. Has nothing to do with an abyss; that would be abyssal.

Yep, something like 'i wish them luck' is a tell for him. He always uses that when he needs to distance himself from something/someone but needs his base to know he doesn't really mean it.
"Stand back and stand by"...
But! "Abysmal" comes from "abysm":
abysm
| əˈbɪz(ə)m |
noun literary
an abyss: the abysm from which nightmares crawl.
I’ll allow it.
I'll all owl it!
I'll awl all it!
Trump didn't even write that post, he certainly is not capable of properly spelling that word.
Spell-check is a thing.
“I have no idea who is behind it,” Trump continued on Truth Social...."Anything they do, I wish them luck"
If you don't know anything about them, how/why would you wish them luck?
For the same reason he called members of the KKK “very fine people”. He’s completely amoral and doesn’t want to alienate people who are obviously fans.
That saying about 10 people sitting at a table and a Nazi sits with them. Now there's a table full of Nazis. Trump is the new or should we say neo Nazi
"That's disgusting!... unless youre into that, in which case can I join you?"
Totally believable. Like how he didn’t know what Qanon was nor the intentions of the proud boys.
Washington couldn't tell a lie
Nixon couldn't tell the truth
Trump couldn't tell the difference
So say which "things" you don't agree with and which you do so your supporters know where you stand. He won't because the only "things" he will support are "will I get paid for it?" He can't even form a complete thought that wasn't rehearsed.
He will say he doesn't support anything he thinks his fans don't want to hear him support and if elected, he will support them.
He also likes to say he is in favor and against things, often in the same sentence, so his followers can latch onto whichever meaning suits them.
And they either don't notice or don't care that he's constantly contradicting himself.

In a post to his social media site, Trump claimed, “I know nothing about Project 2025,”
Claim no knowledge until the election so you capture the vote of those idiots who think "oh he'll just be a good old fashioned hard lined president and drain the swamp"
Once you're elected, use your now legal ability to assassinate anyone in your way and rebuild the government as you see fit into a new theological autocracy/corporatocracy while those same people, influenced by russian and billionaire social propaganda just shrug casually because they have a room temperature IQ
More or less, yes.
What I don’t understand is, what did they think he was doing from 2017-2021? Great things? It was absolute disaster after debacle after stunning disgrace. Over and over. Were they all just like “hooray infrastructure week”??
They thought he was doing whatever social media programmed them to think. And he passed a tax cut that was 90% in the favor of the rich, but had a pittance for the middle class, so they felt that, while being uninformed, and their dopamine centers got a little warm and now they associate that with trump
Swamps sequester massive amounts of carbon. They're great!
So I just checked in with my lone remaining person who supports trump. He says “oh yeah, trump’s been trying to distance himself from that for awhile. Don’t be a sucker that’s all hard-right garbage”. Obviously the sports/talk radio is not concerned about it.
So they’re just moseying along as if trump’s normal and just more conservative than Biden so they’re voting for him. He reads ‘moderate’ websites (CNN, BBC) and claims he just can’t abide “either side’s crazies” which. I mean, I get it. I think that’s pretty well the clearest indictment of our corporate news media there could be.
They spent years pretending like it was all normal. And they will continue to do so. And now a message from our sponsor, Dawn dish detergent. It’s the quicker picker upper!
Bounty is the quicker picker upper, not Dawn.
Heh heh heh
Trump wouldn't lie about that, right? I mean, what has he ever lied about? Not counting every single thing that's ever come out of his mouth, of course.
Ok, so I’ll just vote for the proven pedophile, traitor, racist, transphobe and convicted felon. /s
Get this garbage outta here. Fuck Trump.
Of course he doesn't want to be part of it. They would be going over his head to do everything.
The nutsack likes his power in an absolut flavor.
He doesn't want to be a part of it, because that's like work. He'll be 100% happy to let them do these horrible things and take credit for it later.
