#Putin seeking to #manipulate #US leadership & break out of isolation, #Zelensky told Sky News
His remarks come after several #deadlines set by #Trump passed without new US #sanctions.
Putin definitely wants to trick the US. He’s doing everything he can to avoid sanctions, to prevent the US & Trump from putting sanctions on him.
“If you keep postponing applying sanctions any further, then the Russians will be better prepared.”

The "things have gotten too emotional" line out of the Kremlin seemed designed specifically to poke Trump in a weak spot.
Putin really is a master manipulator, particularly when it comes to the more-loud-than-smart types, exhibit #3742.

CW: USPol - Trump, tariffs
As a consequence of these various #personality, #temperament, and #intellectual #deficits, Trump is, for a world leader, amazingly easy to #manipulate.
If you #butter him up, and suggest doing something will make him look good - well, there's a good chance he'll listen intently. He likes to listen to people telling him he's wonderful, and giving him easy ways to appear more wonderful. Much better than listening to people asking him to choose between tough or ugly choices on complicated subjects.
He's also got that tendency where he believes whatever the last person he spoke to told him. This is why people - remember those oligarchs who were literally in front-row seats at his inauguration? - want to be close to him, figuratively and literally. If you keep his #ear, you can keep him behind your needs, your ideas, your wants.
So, given all this, why the hell did he declare #economic #war on #Canada (and Mexico, and China, but I'm #Canadian) when it was:
(a) obviously a bad idea for the US and the world #economy; there will be pain, and it will hurt him - price of eggs and all that
(b) not something that was going to personally #profit him in any big way
(c) not in the interests of his #billionaire oligarchs
(d) not a primary plank in his campaign - at least not in this scorched-earth approach he's takenWhy?

“Dead Internet theory” comes to life with new AI-powered social media app
The theory says that most social Internet activity today is artificial and designed to #manipulate humans for #engagement.

I think #X's policy on the word "#cisgender" is a new level of escalation. It's dangerous.
It feeds directly into the #conspiracy theory of trans activists being a dangerous mob coming to get you. This is not true. Transphobes WANT you to feel afraid. Don't let them #manipulate into hate.
The trans activists are right. Trans people deserve equality and recognition of their gender identity. And #CisIsNotASlur.

“Trump’s claim to have won the election in 2020 was more than a lie: it was a cynical bet that he could #manipulate & #intimidate his compatriots,” & if he wins it will have worked.
"Having won back power because of his election-denial in 2020, he would surely be affirmed in his gut feeling that only losers allow themselves to be bound by the norms, customs & self-sacrifice that make a nation”.
