Announcers noting that the lights have been 'dimmed' in the press room. It looks to me as if it's blue lighting being used which would be naturally dimmer than white lights.

Maybe he's ordered himself a spotlight for his entrance.

There was a guy in a pink checked shirt n jeans changing light bulbs in there earlier...it was on sky news briefly.

I wonder if it's to tone down the tango?🍊

you missed "unamerican" and possibly "sedition" - although they're long words and his medication may not have kicked in this early.

Sorry.

If there was any time that he probably needs medicating, I'm sure it's now. His 'absolute tariff power' is the foundation of his foreign policy. What will he do without being able to say "If you don't XX, I will tariff you!!!".

I'm picturing staff chasing him around the 'green room' right now with a syringe of Benzos saying "Just stand still please, sir. It's just vitamins!"

maybe he's going to come out in full mourning dress. It is, after all, the death of the Country.

Cams on, reporters assembled. POTUS expected 'momentarily.

CNN covering live for those of you with access.

I don't think i'll be able to transcribe since he veers from pillar to post at a mile a minute.

So here's an advance sneak peak; "WAAAAAH WAAAAAAH WAAAH!! Terrible decision! Wrong! I'm the final power!!! Filing a new case!!! WAAAHHH WAAAH WAAAH ! Disgusting. 'They' should be fired!!! 'They' are despicable" 'They' hate the US. Horrible lefties blah blah blah This will bankrupt the US, the citizens will be ruined! WAHHH WAAAAAH WAHHHH!! Obama sucks. I'm the best!"

I think that about covers it

CNN working for me on the phone. Sky is regional geoblocked.

Lets see what this master expert on constitutional law says.

Your keyboard to God's monitor.

Maybe they're trying to tone down the orange.

He has a bigly new plan according to NYT.

President Trump is planning to invoke new trade authorities in response to the Supreme Court’s ruling overturning his sweeping tariffs, according to two people familiar with his plans, potentially including a new, across-the-board tariff on U.S. trading partners.
The administration has been preparing for months for the possibility that the court would rule against the president and developed contingency plans as a result.
The White House declined to comment. Some officials expected Mr. Trump to announce the new authorities at a news conference on Friday afternoon, but they cautioned that plans could change.

That is very cruel to the rest of us on this thread.

Truss obviously hasn’t done her thing. Can we send her to the Tower for that?

He's late.
Having a coronary in response to SCOTUS? 😂🤞

Not much gold in that press room.

Here he is...well, a record number of people he says.

AcrossthePond55 · 20/02/2026 18:23

hahaha 'ashamed' of 'certain members' of SCOTUS. 'disgrace to the nation'

Kav, Alito & Thomas are wonderful!!!

'disgrace to the nation'

Meh, just read my post above. It's pretty much spot on.

RedTagAlan · 20/02/2026 18:23

The court is unpatriotic to the constitution.

AcrossthePond55 · 20/02/2026 18:24

Serpentstooth · 20/02/2026 18:24

I understand there's an obligation to take this oaf seriously but . . . Bloody hell.

"I want to be a good boy" WTF does that mean?

That he is reverting to the toddler who was desperate for his father's approval?

AcrossthePond55 · 20/02/2026 18:26

It does look like he's sticking to a script. I'm sure he's throwing in adjectives though

TemporarilyCantDoMyself · 20/02/2026 18:26

Nobel prize winners - ✅️ bingo card.
Wars we solved.
Bad things.
Oh god the inside of his head...

RedTagAlan · 20/02/2026 18:27

He is going word salad mode.

Election, cheats.... Nobel prize winners, broke every record, ended 8 wars, peace board...

Fentaniol.

Not much legal stuff.

"We have alternatives". We're taking in hundreds of billions, we'll continue to do so.

Spandauer · 20/02/2026 18:28

His eyes are looking particularly lizard-like today. Has he been visiting Area 51?

Cant charge 1 dollah... not one dollah.

Oh, Now he is talking embargoes.

AcrossthePond55 · 20/02/2026 18:29

I can embargo. I can do anything I want to do to countries except charge money. But I can destroy them.

If I was in Iran I’d be feeling quite nervous.
