That line was actually Trump being his narcissistic self. In context he’s saying, “Nobody knows how important magnets are but me.” And then he mumble fucks around about magnets being in everything.
Somebody whispered in his ear that China halting rare earth exports is going to fuck up a broad range of industries. His dementia locked onto, “Magnets good. China has magnets. China no give magnets.” He then goes to mumbling how he’s threatening and begging Xi.
That also explains his idiot rant to our Navy in Japan week before last. He’s explaining that we need to get away from magnetic aircraft and ordnance lifting systems and go back to steam.
He’s trying to explain all this without admitting that he poked the tiger and the tiger poked back.
What’s funny is I think he was thinking of electronics (remember the shark vs electric boats dementia babble he did?) but if he had said fire instead of water it would be correct wrt magnets.
I like how the guy who was elected because he says what he thinks always has to have his comments put into context. He didn’t literally mean that nobody knows what a magnet is (despite literally saying “nobody knows what a magnet is”), he meant something totally different!
I’m explaining what he means through the lens of his dementia. Aw, shit. Forgot I’m on lemmy where “explanation” = “agreement”, “explanation” = “condoning”.
How well did you do on those reading comprehension tests in school?
It’s a textual medium, and text is not a native medium for tone. Their response to you didn’t seem like they were arguing to me, just an unfortunate miscommunication.
I know you’ve got beef with the way the users here respond to you, but I’m starting to wonder if there’s an element of implicit tone mismatch to it.
I intend this to come off as respectful and well intentioned, if I’m missing something blame it on the lack of coffee at 7 am.
How well did you do on those reading comprehension tests in school?
Probably better than you, considering you read a whole ton of shit that I didn’t write. When did I say you were condoning him??? I just said that it’s funny that the guy that conservatives say “speaks his mind” has to have every statement interpeteted nonliterally

Insert that clip of him from years ago saying that you drop magnets in water, they stop working…
