Americans must be so proud of their commander in chief. Well at least 40% still are. That’s all you need to know about the United States. In regards to the world, you lost all respect and trust that took 80 years to built. If any other foreign leader would use this language, he would be in a white padded cell within hours.
I actually think someone like trump could exist in more countries than we are willing to acknowledge. He plays terribly as someone else’s leader, but as your own leader, people seem to love the jingoism, bravado, and shamelessness in a lot of countries.
Indeed they do but in other countries there are mechanisms in place to ensure you don’t get a cosplay dictator. In the Netherlands, Wilders was elected who is a Trump wannabe, but thanks for the proper democratic system in the Netherlands, he was severely limited in what crazy shit he wanted to do. Obviously the government collapsed and now they have a much more middle of the road government, which means more will get done. It is about checks and balances but Trump does whatever he wants and no one stops him.
Yeah the executive has been out of control here for decades, it just took trump to make that obvious.
People like him do exist in other countries. But without a cult of personality they don’t really achieve very much, and no one can do cults like the US.
The MEGA equivalents in other countries are actually having a bit of a problem because everyone can see a live demonstration of what their policies would actually look like, and no one likes it.
That’s basically what happened in Australia’s last election. The Liberals were trying to play up culture war shit & wanted to emulate DOGE, and it backfired hard. I was waiting to lock up a polling place for the night in Western Australia which is a couple of hours behind the eastern states, by the time they’d finished packing up the votes to be counted it was already so lopsided that even if every remaining vote was Liberal it wouldn’t have mattered.
Spoiler alert: this country never deserved that respect…

Yeah people make fun of ww2 germany all the time and it’s totally fine
You disagree with his comment being racist? Well since you’re not with us, you’re against us! There’s no middle ground, no nuance and no discourse in this community!

How the japanese prime minister visibly winced
These Nazi She -wolves all think if they kiss Trump’s shitty ass they will get special treatment, see Giorgia Meloni and Danielle Smith.
That’s a weird and sexist take.
Meloni doesn’t really butter up to Trump and male leaders kiss Trumps ass as much as any female leader
The element of surprise was totally key to winning this war. When you kill ailing 86 year old pope, and 160 grade school girls, you make everyone in Iran immediately see the virtues of Mossad/CIA style democracy. – Don Tzu
ITT: Lemmites Letting the mask slip
If this is what makes you clutch your pearls then you are going to audibly gasp at all the other shit Trump has said.
I mean, out of all the heinous fascistic shit Trump has done, this is probably among the least egregious. Plus as a dark comedy enjoyer, I can appreciate this on a “who the fuck starts a conversation like that; I just sat down” sort of level.
People can find it funny for several reasons, some may be laughing at the pure stupidity of comparing the two. I would say we have seen few countries Trump considers allies. And Russia, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia seem to be the only 3 re-occuring allies he seems to consider.
And Russia, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia
Which one of these is Israel?
Touche, I’m not sure I can tell the difference between Israel and Florida at the moment, Israel gets more benefits than Florida does though
And Argentina lmao
Stop making vertical territories. Just stop it. If it’s a long skinny shape on a map, it shouldn’t exist.
All countries should be hexagon shaped for mathematical elegance!
This is pretty harmless, especially by his standards.
I don’t see a problem laughing at this.
This is the funniest fucking thing he’s ever done.
It was legitimately funny, not diplomatic at all, but legitimately funny.
How was it funny?
It’s old man jokes like these that I understand. People clutching their pearls online while literally no one reacted the way this article says when they were in the room. Even the PM gave a visible smirk because she knows he’s an old senile moron that can be easily manipulated.
To a prior PM, it would be in extremely bad taste. But this bitch is nakedly fascist.
Yeah am I bad for literally laughing out loud at this? unbelievable stuff
anyone want to share? I can’t see the joke.
From the article:
“One thing, you don’t want to signal too much when we go in,” Trump said. “We went in very hard and we didn’t tell anyone about it because we wanted surprise. Who knows better about surprise than Japan? Why didn’t you tell me about Pearl Harbor?”
Why didn’t you tell me about Pearl Harbor?
Trump was what at that time? A middle aged nobody?
Trump was born in 1946. Japan bombed Pearl Harbor in 1941. The war he dodged with his “bone spurs” was Vietnam, not WWII.
he was 5.
Are you sure he wasn’t 50 back then? I mean… look at him!
well I was wrong so maybe you’re right!
-5.
yes, my bad.
Nope, Trump is a very early boomer. He wasn’t born until After Pearl Harbor happened.
big oof
“One thing, you don’t want to signal too much when we go in,” Trump said. “We went in very hard and we didn’t tell anyone about it because we wanted surprise. Who knows better about surprise than Japan? Why didn’t you tell me about Pearl Harbor?”
Lol, that shit is funny. Irrespective, the guy is fuckinh retarded and a plague on the world
What makes it funny? Seems like nowadays whatever is insulting is called funny
Different people have different senses of humor. It’s subjective.
Of course, so what makes it funny to you?
I never said it was funny.
Legitimately a good joke, probably not during a diplomatic meeting though.
It’s not offensive by Trump’s standards but it also isn’t really funny.
I died laughing! 😂 I like how silent the room just went after the 2 sec before people realized what he just said.
Btw the Japan Primeminister is also a Japanese MAGA so I don’t really give a f about her either. Let them swin in their own nationalist poop.
I was curious about what the Japanese side’s take on Trump’s remark would be, so I found this news report from a Japanese outlet:
Try translating the comments by yourself. You’d find that most people are blaming the Japanese reporter who asked “why didn’t you notify us before attacking Iran.” They say that of course they wouldn’t tell us (Japanese) about a surprise attack beforehand and that this question is stupid and rude.
Personally though I think this remark is rude regardless of what questions were asked. Also I think that the question itself may be stupid but isn’t rude.
The question should have been phrased “why did you not form a Coalition before your attack on Iran” but that would have confused Trump.
Given the fact that he also wanted to approach China for support I think him actually attempting to get consensus would have been more chaotic than the current timeline.
There’s been enough blue on blue action as it is without trying to get nations who don’t really like each other to work together
It was a funny joke tho hahahajaj
And she just sat there like a little puppy 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ha ha ha
FREE DUMB!!
Watching that woman hug the dickhead.
Bro. The people coming to his defense is mind blowing. “That’s not what he meant!”, “He didn’t mean it in a racist way!” Shut the fuck up. He knows what he’s saying. He doesn’t care. The mental gymnastics his cult does for him is crazy. Just own up to it. He’s the racist pedophile Uncle who makes bad jokes at a family gathering that you wouldn’t leave your 10 year old with.
It is what it is.
Something something narcissist’s prayer.
It’s the same shit they repeated on the campaign trail god I got tired of being told “it’s all hyperbole” from people I know didn’t even know what the word meant
I’m noticing more discourse on Lemmy. I’m not saying I want Lemmy to be a hive mind. But there’s clearly more and more comments seemingly just giving really “wrong side of history” takes.
I don’t see what the problem is.
Which is why you have no close friends.
My close friends are Neo Nazis
No fucking thanks to the rich assholes who put him into power, not just those who voted for him for the worst single-minded reasons.
If he’s not actually courting war coming upon him, it would be nearly every country except maybe Israel and Russia boycotting from ever making business with not until he and his gang are removed.
I haven’t read anything about this interview because I’m preemptively feeling the embarrassment and rage of what our Prime Minister will say or promise to cater to the orange shit stain.
Frontal lobe dementia, also known as frontotemporal dementia (FTD), is a group of disorders caused by the progressive degeneration of the brain’s frontal and temporal lobes, affecting behavior, personality, and language skills. Symptoms often include changes in personality, inappropriate social behavior, and difficulties with language and movement.

Frontotemporal dementia
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Frontal lobe dementia)
Frontotemporal dementia (FTD), also known as frontotemporal degeneration, and historically as Pick’s disease, is a family of progressive neurodegenerative disorders that affect the frontal and temporal lobes.[2] The FTD family includes behavioral variant FTD (bvFTD), primary progressive aphasia (PPA) and its semantic and nonfluent/agrammatic variants (svPPA and nfvPPA)[2], primary progressive apraxia of speech (PPAOS),[3][4] progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), and corticobasal syndrome (CBS)[2]. Through a mutual risk gene, FTD and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) share a clinical spectrum, with it possible for symptoms of both disorders to co-occur.[5] Symptoms of FTD will typically match a specific disorder at first, though symptoms of other disorders will inevitably begin to show as the disease progresses to different areas of the brain[6]. FTD disorders are a common young-onset dementia occurring under the age of 60, often developing when people are raising families and managing careers[7].
Approximately 60% of people diagnosed with FTD have no known cause and no family history of FTD or related conditions; this is known as sporadic FTD. While environmental causes and unidentified gene variants are suspected causes of sporadic FTD, research in this area is still ongoing. When people have a family history of FTD, other dementias, or conditions like depression and anxiety, it is referred to as familial FTD, and roughly 20% have an underlying genetic basis. Variants in three genes are responsible for most genetic FTD. Notably, in about 10% of people with seemingly sporadic FTD, a genetic variant is identified.[8]
FTD diagnosis currently relies on clinical examination based on the signs and symptoms experienced and imaging of the brain through MRI or FTDG-PET. FTD disorders have heterogeneous symptoms and pathological features, which contribute to a lengthy differential diagnostic process and high rates of misdiagnosis. A neuropathological examination after death usually provides a definitive diagnosis by identifying the specific features of FTD subtypes[2].
There is no cure for FTD, nor are any disease-modifying treatments approved that could slow disease progression. The aim of treatment is to manage symptoms, which is primarily accomplished through non-pharmacological interventions such as person-centric care strategies or physical and occupational therapy. Medication can be used to address symptoms like depression or anxiety, but some drugs, like sleep or antipsychotic medicines, carry a considerable risk of side effects for people with FTD[9]. Death is usually the result of complications of FTD, such as pneumonia or fall-related injuries. The average life expectancy after symptoms start is 7-13 years[10].
Signs and symptoms
Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is an early onset disorder that mostly occurs between the ages of 45 and 65,[11] but can begin earlier, and in 20–25% of cases onset is later.[12][13] Men and women appear to be equally affected.[14] It is the most common early presenting dementia.[15] FTD is the second most prevalent type of early onset dementia after Alzheimer’s disease.[14][16]
The International Classification of Diseases recognizes the disease as causative to disorders affecting mental and behavioural aspects in humans. Dissociation from family, compulsive buying disorder (oniomania), vulgar speech characteristics, screaming, and inability to control emotions, behavior, personality, or temperament are characteristic social display patterns.[17] The gradual onset and progression of subtle changes in behavior or language deficits commonly leads to a long delay between the onset of symptoms and time of presentation to a neurologist.[14]

TLDR:
Frontotemporal dementia is a family of progressive neurodegenerative disorders that affect the frontal and temporal lobes. Dissociation from family, compulsive buying disorder (oniomania), vulgar speech characteristics, screaming, and inability to control emotions, behavior, personality, or temperament are characteristic social display patterns.
This is exactly where a stent would be placed to try and restore blood flow to the brain on someone with dementia.
