Trump referenced a weekend conversation with Oregon Gov. Tina Kotek, and he alluded to being told by Kotek that the reality in Portland is different from what’s being portrayed to him.

“I spoke to the governor, she was very nice,” Trump said. “But I said, ‘Well wait a minute, am I watching things on television that are different from what’s happening? My people tell me different.’ They are literally attacking and there are fires all over the place…it looks like terrible.”

    He’s a complete puppet who has no idea what’s going on. A figurehead who believes whatever the fascist regime tells him and signs whatever executive orders they put before him. They still need him because the cult base is what keeps them in power-, otherwise he’d already be gone. What will they do when he dies or can’t go out in public any more? I’m not sure if they know, but I think once the midterms are over and once they believe they’ve cemented their power they’ll get rid of him in a heartbeat.
