Trump’s poll asking his followers to fine-tune his insults against Democrats is drawing mockery.
On Friday, Trump took to Truth Social to poll his followers on whether he should go with “Dumocrat or Dumbocrat.” He explained that “you simply exchange the ‘e’ for ‘u,’” and added his oft-repeated note, “Many people don’t know, or assume, that DUMB ends in ‘b.’”
However, online reactions were bewildered by the fact that he was focused on the question instead of other issues they argued should take priority.
“Iran just closed the Strait of Hormuz again,” progressive political commentator Jack Cocchiarella pointed out on X. “Meanwhile Trump.”
“People who aren’t dumb know ‘dumb’ ends in ‘b,’” wrote Melanie D’Arrigo, a New York-based political organizer. “MAGA should be insulted that he treats them as if they’re idiots.”
Veteran political journalist Chuck Todd added, “‘Many people’ usually is a stand in for self discovery.”
“However you spell it, making this man president is, hands down, one of the dumbest things American society has ever done,” wrote author Jennifer Erin Valent. “And we’ve done some dumb things.”
“All you right wing talking heads who wouldn’t shut up about Biden’s clear cognitive decline have nothing to say here when it’s clear there is cognitive decline,” 2024 Libertarian Party presidential nominee Chase Oliver said.
“The President of the United States of America is collapsing in front of the world due to a convergence of psychopathologies after losing a war to Iran and picking a fight with Italy,” political writer Jim Stewartson posted, referring to Trump’s recent spat with the Italian prime minister. “This only gets worse. The mathematics of his disorders go in one direction.”
