Trump comment about L.A and San Diego.

[Xackie]

For Donald Trump's justice and his contribution to the world, French sculptors have made a portrait of him in which he is completely naked and leaning on an innocent skinny man.
Many are calling this portrait of him a nude sculpture or the orange epidemic, Trump's nudity and justice, etc. However, the most interesting thing is that Trump himself can be heard talking about a kind of justice, but in reality he is the most corrupt and threatening person in the world.

I saw a video  about the sculpture on Tiktok, it looks funny.  People already despise Trump for the havoc he has caused on the entire globe. From his childish Tariffs to conflicts which he promised to avoid during his Campaign.  I remember when he was prasing himself as a man of peace that when he get into the white house he would end all conflicts that are happening  across the globe. Now more  conflicts have erupted like the civil war in Ethiopia, Northern Yemen fighting the Saudis and Europe fearing that Russia might attack them anytime soon. All these are happening under his watch and he always refer himself as a great leader. I can't just wait for his time to arrive where he will be punished for his crime and corruption with his Families and friends who have profited massively during his tenure.

The issue is that sometimes people forget that, in any good position, the weight of the words becomes heavier. The words of a President weigh much more as compared to those of an ordinary person. Maybe what he meant was a joke but when something like Iran attacking cities is mentioned, people in Los Angeles and San Diego are becoming more serious. We cannot say right now whether there is a serious chat behind that or not but I can understand why you people in those cities are feeling uncomfortable hearing those words from a person like president. If an ordinary person says anything or makes any joke, it is not going to attract so much attention but when a person in a very renowned position like President, the situation becomes completely different. This should not be turned into a big political fight. People are already very sensitive about these cute issues, so understandably, this type of comment has generated a very strong amount of reactions.

Personally, I don't fvck with Donald Trump but I don't think that was what he meant.  Could it be comprehension issues or something?! But what I thought he said was that, he doesn't want Iranians in possession of a nuclear weapon and that if they do, they can take out both  Los Angeles and San Diego. That was what I heard when I watched the video clip trending online.

Nope, that's not what he said and it's not how people--including members of his own party--are interpreting it.

He clearly said that it would be okay if the Iranians annihilated LA and San Diego (and presumably a lot of other cities that are majority Democrat) if that was what was necessary to defeat Iran.

Of course, if you take this at face value, it's absolute gibberish and makes no sense. Hence the only meaning it actually had was Trump's thought process around the war, and his willingness to sacrifice millions of American lives in order to "win" the war he started with Iran.

There's a reason why Republicans who are up for reelection right now are desperately trying to contradict what Trump said here: because the sentiment is clear..

No body in his right thinking would need anyone else to give an interpretation of what Trump's words words are meaning, for hell's sake it weren't some vague statement or riddle that should be explained before clarity is gotten.
This is a critical political period in America and any of the Republican politician would definitely speak in favour of Trump because they believe Trump backing would bring them back for another tenure.

You believe politicians at your own peril mostly when they need your vote at the poll they can promise to give you the world. Check all the promises Trump made for bitcoin community, what has he fulfilled among any of those? And here it's just unbelievable to think that there are people who think that Trump would want to genuinely call and make for peace across the world. A promoter of war and adductor of another sovereign country's President without recourse to international laws. How do anyone make up of such man with the term justice.

One thing I take from this is that the higher your position the more careful you have to be with words. Something you consider a joke may not sound funny to the people who feel affected by it. We need to learn to look beyond the headlines before forming an opinion. Sometimes the way a statement is being presented can make people miss the real meaning to it.
Leaders also needs to understand that not everyone will interpret their words the way they intended. That’s why I believe good leadership is not just about what you mean to say but also about understanding how your words affect the people you lead.

Yes, but Trump was not joking here. As all of the first-hand accounts of Trump confirm, the man has no sense of humor and never jokes about anything.

Trump and those around him are aware that he is president of the USA. Hence he knows very well how his statements will be interpreted. This is not a case of him going, "oops, I forgot I was president and my words are interpreted differently".

Trump was making it clear to his base that his war in Iran would require sacrifices and terrible risks, as all wars do, but he will make sure those terrible things will only happen to the people you don't like e.g. people living in California. That's why he called the loss of two major US cities, "a small price to pay". He didn't say that Texas or Florida are a small price to pay, because for Republican voters those are things they would feel bad about if they were destroyed (leave aside that there are more Republican voters in California than any other state--most of his supporters can't do math).

Sometimes that man jsut voices out things carelessly without weighing the repercussions at all. Instead of focusing more on helping his party's local candidate to campaign whenever he has the crowd around him and helping them increase their chances at the polls this November, he is busy making more efforts to give them bad ratings. Making jokes about allowing a foreign nation to attack LA and San Diego. He always loves to put his party candidates in a defensive mode because, when many of them go for media interviews, they are constantly asked about what Trump says or didn't say and he always gives the media something negative to talk about.

Trump has always made unnecessary statements and his statements can create problem for his party. Especially at time when there are going to be very important election. Instead of using his popularity and his public appearance through which he can easily highlight important party achievement and support local candidates, these types of controversial statement and comment are shifting attention from their campaign. It is not taken lightly to joke about the attack on cities it is an issue of national security which is very serious. He is political leader whose words carry weight because of his position and he needs to think carefully before saying anything especially when his statements are directly targeting the public.
