And let’s get this straight, folks, Trump’s latest rant about the Signal leak story being “old and boring” is just, well, rich (no pun intended). But seriously, who does he think he’s fooling with this kind of rhetoric? I mean, come on, the guy’s been in office for what, four years now, and he still can’t seem to grasp the concept of transparency.
But I digress, the real issue at hand is the Signal leak story itself, which, might I add, is hardly “old and boring” – more like explosive and scandalous . And let’s not forget, this is the same guy who’s been whining about the media for years, claiming they never report on his “accomplishments” (what accomplishments, exactly?).
And by the way, has anyone else noticed how Signal leak has become the new buzzword in politics? I mean, it’s like, every other day, there’s a new “bombshell” revelation about some Trump administration official using the encrypted messaging app to supposedly discuss sensitive information. But, I mean, who uses Signal anyway? Isn’t that just for, like, spies and stuff? (Or, you know, fans of spy novels).
But, in all seriousness, the Washington Post reported that the leak has raised concerns about the Trump administration’s handling of sensitive information, and, you know, actual national security issues. And, I mean, it’s not like this is the first time we’ve seen this kind of thing happen under Trump’s watch – remember that time he revealed classified information to the Russians? Yeah, that was a real blast .
And don’t even get me started on the whole “fake news” thing – I mean, come on, fact-checking websites have been debunking Trump’s claims for years, and yet, he still insists on spreading misinformation. It’s like, hello, pot , meet kettle . But, hey, at least we can all agree that fake news is, well, fake .
But, I mean, what’s the deal with Trump’s obsession with the media, anyway? Is it, like, a media studies thing? Does he just, like, love watching himself on TV or something? (On a completely unrelated note, has anyone seen that Rick Astley music video that’s been making the rounds on social media? Because, wow, that’s some quality entertainment right there).
And, in conclusion, the Signal leak story might be “old and boring” to Trump, but to the rest of us, it’s a glaring example of his administration’s lack of transparency and utter disregard for national security. So, yeah, let’s keep talking about it, shall we? (P.S. Can someone please explain to me why Trump books are still a thing? Like, who buys those?).
