On first seeing this, twitter commenters were asking if it was real, and I was too. So I checked up on @WhiteHouse, and darn if it isnt the official social media of the Trump administration.
Objectively, this nonsense is demented and degrades our country. For Trump personally I'm sure his Superman figurines will be available shortly at the low low price of $ 299.99 for a six inch tall Trump Superman bobblehead.
Really?
It is nonsense.
It is hardly demented.
It is ridiculous to think it degrades our country.
They should have given him bigger abbs
Trump vs. Truth, Justice, and the American Way
...Which brings us back to today, and to the White House post portraying Trump as Superman and repeating the phrase, “truth, justice, and the American way.”
It goes without saying that no American president has been more distant from truth-telling than Donald Trump .
It goes without saying that no president has been more scornful of elementary principles of justice.
And I’d add: No administration has been further removed from what we’ve generally understood to be the American way. Now it’s true that what we like to think of as the American way has at times been more aspirational than real, more honored in the breach than in the observance. But the writers of Superman understood this. That’s why, in the intro to the 1950s show, the battle for truth, justice, and the American way is “never-ending.”
All of this leads me to this thought: I don’t know that we can defeat Trump and Trumpism politically by appealing to abstract concepts of truth or justice. But I do wonder if we might have more success if we spent more time pointing out how much Trump distorts and how much Trumpism does violence to the American way.
Or to put it differently: I’m not sure how much political punch there is in the argument that Trumpism isn’t truthful. I’m not sure how much political punch there is in the argument that Trumpism isn’t just. But couldn’t there be political punch in pointing out that Trumpism isn’t patriotic?
If (like Superman!) you value the American way, you really can’t be for Trump.

Shocking, Shocking stuff. I remember well the outrage from the left when Biden posted memes with laser beams shooting from his eyes. Remember all the leftists calling it nonsensical and demented?
Me neither.

Biden was mocking right wing conspiracy theories about Taylor Swift. Trump is mocking the American people.
