Trump will literally just believe whoever the last person that talks to him is.
If you could surround them with the right people you could steer them anywhere.

Exactly. The moment Mamdani left the Oval Office, PeeWee Himmler Wormtongue whispered into Trump's ear "That Muslim Commie really sucks, doesn't he?" and Trump will say "Yes, he really sucks, he's a very, very bad man." And life will go back to normal in MAGALand.
I believe this is exactly why the gerontocracy exists. Old people are easier for lobbyists to trick.
I'm going through the reciepts of this interview rn. Its absolutely wild how like.. in love Trump is with Mamdani.
Like this is *w *i *l *d. The media trying to do all these gotchas on Mamdani and Trump the one coming to his defense.
Ya know, for how buck wild the past decade has been, it's about damn time something unfathomable but seemingly positive/hopeful happened.
Hopefully Trump had another stroke, and Mamdani isn't the kind of horrible person that Trump fawns over.
i think mamdani just knows this whole game a lot better than he let on, dudes playing trump and everyone else like a fiddle

Before my grandmother passed away, she had really bad Alzheimer’s and she would always have the same emotions as the last person she was with if someone was in a good mood, she was in a good mood if someone was in a negative mood, she would be in a negative mood. I can see the same thing happening with Donnie right now.
i know we've all probably said this hundreds of times now...but if this doesn't jolt MAGA to their senses nothing will.
trump raving about mamdani being some communist one second, then a good guy the next...
"He doesn't care about treason, that's just him parrotting you because you talked to him last. If he spoke to janitor, he'd be passionately declaiming about a fucking mop"

I’m hoping mamdani whispered in his ear on the way out “don’t trust Stephen miller” and just walked off. Would make for an interesting time
“I feel very confident that he can do a good job,” Mr. Trump said Friday afternoon in the Oval Office. “I think he is going to surprise some conservative people actually.”
