Alright, this isn't a failed attempt at anything. Since there are already several comments, we'll let it stay up, but for future reference, we're not turning this into a “Trump posted something stupid, quick, use the cheat code title ‘To be a normal president."

When has he ever tried "to be a normal president"? We had 6 or 7 Trump truth social posts within 24 hours alone. If it fits the failed attempt criteria, post it. If it doesn't, please don't shoehorn it in with a title about something he wasn't actually attempting.

The man posts dumb shit every day. We can't accommodate all of it. There are other subs for that. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Edit forgot to add: If we remove the post, only OP sees the removal reason, leaving this comment shows everyone else to avoid using titles that don't actually describe an attempted fail just to shoehorn the post in.

“Thank your for your attention to this matter” sans comma and all, is fucking gold

Ok then lock the comments on this

u/Kumquat_conniption Free Palestine! 🕊️ FUCK ICE! ✖️🧊 18h ago

Why? The whole point in keeping it was that there were already a bunch of conversations started, no? We only lock when we absolutely have to. So frustrating to be talking to someone and then you type up a whole ass reply, and suddenly you cannot send it because the post is locked. It's only done if there are way too many rule breaking comments, like racist or violent comments.

It is a failed attempt at being normal. So i think it works. Fuck Trump, but it is what it is.

u/Much_Highlight_1309 19h ago

Not sure he ever attempted to or is physically or mentally able to be normal.
