No all-caps, correct spelling, time for another exciting round of "Who Wrote This, Cuz It Wasn't Trump"

Eugene

This is the 3rd post from Trump's Truth Social account this morning. He started around 4 a.m.

Do you think he wrote this?

If he actually talked and acted like that, he would be a lot less unpopular. But you can’t change an old jackass.

it is his tone. Those around him would be able to replicate the latter.

I can't guess who wrote this one. One thing's for sure... trump has delegated the entire presidency to multiple "others." I guess Maga is okay with this, tho? As long as trump can keep screaming like the figurehead he is. How sad... too bad. Poor little snowflakes following one major screw up snowflake.

He wants to strike a moderate tone towards India. Maybe because of his wife, or maybe the tech bros demand it.

Trump is not able to write a post like this due to his lack of education, poor writing skills,
demential and mental illness.

(because people have looked at timestamps). So we know his regular staff can do the demented style if they need to. Either this means they've decided not to, for some reason, or someone else (Stephen Miller? Peter Navarro?) has written this, and either got the staff to post it (who must know it's not the usual style), or has actually wrested control of the account from them.

Americans have WAY more money than Indians.
Naturally the trade pattern is going to be one-sided.
This isn't economics, either.
It's common sense.

the sentences are complete and grammatical, and the punctuation is occasionally excessive but not completely wrong. The content is pretty dumb and inaccurate, but it's coherent and not ranting. And where's "Thank you for your attention to this matter"? Whoever wrote this isn't functionally illiterate and/or dyslexic, so it can't have been Trump.
