I would agree with your "coincidence" explanation if it weren't for the consistent pattern of "coincidences" in which Trump does something dictator-like and right-wingers rush to his defense with "coincidence". It's just a coincidence that all of these foreign diplomats invest in his meme coin or some family business and then suddenly are granted meetings with the president! It's just a coincidence that Qatar sends him a luxury airliner and his rhetoric about Qatar does a 180 degree flip! It's just a coincidence that he tried to interfere in a presidential election! It's just a coincidence that he consistently claims Article I and Article III powers for himself! It's just a coincidence that he's rounding up people and sending them to foreign prisons!

I've never met someone so unlucky /s



Are you claiming that the Army anniversary date being on DJT's birthday ISN'T a coincidence?

That must take some crazy mental gymnastics...

As to your other points, most aren't coincidences, though some aren't real either.


> Are you claiming that the Army anniversary date being on DJT's birthday ISN'T a coincidence? That must take some crazy mental gymnastics...

You should read the post you're responding to. It clearly addresses this very question.

> though some aren't real either

I think you mean, "though I'm not familiar with some of those cases"--otherwise a citation is needed.


The date is entirely unimportant. I suppose it's just a coincidence that Trump is following project 2025, step by step, since day one¹. And also a coincidence that many of the people who wrote project 2025 are in the Trump administration²³. It's just a coincidence, but of course trump didn't and doesn't know anything about it. Stop playing stupid.

The date is exactly what was being discussed. I was responding to the mischaracterization of "a military parade for the president's birthday", which is factually inaccurate. Plus, the plan was made during Biden's term.

He's following Agenda 47, which was published on his campaign website. He stated he agreed with some of Project 2025, but not all of it.

It's unsurprising that some involved in writing Project 2025 are working for the Trump admin.


> He stated he agreed with some of Project 2025, but not all of it.

He's stated every stance you can on 2025. Heard of it, never heard of it, love it, hate it, etc.
