Trump Makes Bizarre Announcement About The Name Of Our 'Great Country'—And Whaaat??

In a bizarre Truth Social post, Donald Trump railed against the trials he's facing and announced the name of our 'great country' once he's elected again...and it sounds somewhat familiar.

In a bizarre Truth Social post, former President Donald Trump tried to launch an attack on President Joe Biden while addressing his growing legal issues.

But what really had people scratching their heads was his peculiar announcement about the name of our "great country" in the event he is elected again: He mentioned that his election in 2024 would result in the creation of a geopolitical entity called "the United States."


Of course, that's the name of our country already but Trump nonetheless confidently stated:

"We're going to Make America Great Again and put America first."
"We’re gonna have a great country. It’s gonna be called the United States of America."

You can hear what Trump said in the video below.

Trump also expressed his disapproval of the "highly political Biden lawsuits and indictments" and called for them to be postponed until after the election. He particularly criticized the start date of his criminal trial in Washington, D.C., set for the day before Super Tuesday by Judge Tanya Chutkan, who had imposed a partial gag order on Trump.

Referring to those involved, Trump stated, "These are corrupt people," and he invoked the Founding Fathers, suggesting they would look upon Biden and his administration with disdain and "disbelief":

"These are corrupt people. Our Founding Fathers are looking down at Biden with scorn right now. They’re looking down at Biden and this administration with disbelief.”

Critics wasted no time in mocking Trump's oddball statement about the name of our already named country.


It remains unclear what Trump meant by this statement, but it adds to a series of recent unusual remarks, including one in which he pointed out the abbreviation for the United States spells "us."

During a recent campaign event in New Hampshire, he remarked that he had just noticed this fact and expressed frustration that he might not receive adequate recognition for making this "us" discovery.

“I just picked that up. Has anyone ever thought of that? I just picked that up," he said at the time, adding that "if we say something genius, they’ll never say it."

Dave Coulier Reveals New Cancer Diagnosis Just Months After Beating Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma

Fans of Full House and of Dave Coulier, who played Joey Gladstone on the show, have been on a roller coaster in the past year, following Coulier along on his cancer treatment journey after he revealed that he'd been diagnosed with Stage 3 non-Hodgkin lymphoma and later deemed cancer-free.

Now, unfortunately, the journey continues, as Coulier revealed during an interview with TODAY after Thanksgiving weekend that just seven months after being declared cancer-free, he's since been diagnosed with a "P16 squamous carcinoma," which is a form of cancer that concentrates in the head and neck, and in Coulier's case, in his tongue.

Matrix co-creator Lilly Wachowski has opened up about what it's been like to see her magnum opus The Matrix be co-opted by the far-right.

Anywhere you go in online spaces for the past 10-15 years, right-wing weirdos talk about being "red-pilled," a reference to the film's plot point in which lead character Neo is offered a red pill that will enlighten him to the realities of the systems ruling our lives, or a blue pill that will allow him to stay ignorant.

'Franklin The Turtle' Publisher Condemns Pete Hegseth For Turning Beloved Character Into Violent Meme

Kids Can Press, the Canadian publisher behind the beloved Franklin children's books, condemned Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth in a statement after he shared an AI-generated image of Franklin the Turtle to justify his attacks on alleged drug-smuggling vessels in the Caribbean.

Hegseth's original meme, which he inexplicably captioned "for your Christmas wish list," features a doctored book cover titled Franklin Targets Narco Terrorists and shows Franklin, the protagonist of the popular Canadian children's book series authored by Paulette Bourgeois and illustrated by Brenda Clark, firing a bazooka from a helicopter at boats in the water below.
