The answer sort of defies Bettridge’s Law in that it is in the “not even wrong” category of stupid shit.

He was talking about a different Gaza. And Hamas isn’t there.

You know what is there? AIDS and other STDs.

    Even given that, I love this statistic:

    ““USAID procures condoms for around $0.05 apiece,” he wrote on Wednesday on X. “$50m would be ONE BILLION condoms. What’s going on here is NOT a billion condoms for Gaza. What’s going on is that the bros at DOGE apparently can’t read govt spreadsheets.””

    They are not sending a billion condoms ANYWHERE.

        Even if they were, shouldn’t they be overjoyed at the prospect of “less terrorists”? You can’t beat 0.05 a pop for that goal in any possible way - a bullet is more expensive.

          They also want to outlaw birth control. It’s not like anything they say or do is in any way rational.

    So here’s a quick chart for telling if something is true or not: Did Trump say it? -> Its absolutely untrue Did someone else say it?-> It may be true

      Unless he’s talking about something terrible he’s planning to do. Then it’s likely true.

    We should be ignoring everything he says and wants for 4 years.

    Put him in his own little instance of twitter with Russian bots and let him piss away the years.
