The man who is allegedly running the country banged out an onslaught of posts and reposts in a furious social media blitzkrieg that started at 7.09pm, went nonstop until almost midnight. In that five-hour span on Monday night, Kimmel noted, the president posted 116 times, at an average of every two minutes."
"Do you know how long you have to be on the toilet to post that much? he laughed. I mean, what is he eating? Kimmel then mocked Trump's press-friendly cabinet meeting on Tuesday, in which he baselessly and impossibly claimed that revenue from his tariffs would lead to the elimination of the US income tax. Well, he would know he hasn't paid income tax in, what, 50 years? Kimmel noted. Does anyone believe we're not going to have income tax to pay?"
Donald Trump posted 116 times on Truth Social between 7.09pm and almost midnight, averaging a post every two minutes. Observers mocked the volume and frequency of the posts and quipped about the circumstances of posting. During a press-friendly cabinet meeting, Trump asserted that tariff revenue would eliminate US income tax, a claim described as baseless and impossible. Critics pointed to his long history of not paying income tax and questioned the feasibility of eliminating income tax. Video clips showed Trump appearing to fall asleep during the meeting, including dozing during a presentation by Robert F. Kennedy Jr., prompting commentary about fatigue and overnight posting.
