Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Tuesday, November 11, 2025

President Donald Trump thinks no one knows what a magnet is. The polarizing president was in conversation with Fox News about the economy when he veered off track to discuss China and magnetic trains. "President Xi was willing to do the railroad things"that's magnets," he said. "Now, nobody knows what a magnet is. If you don't have a magnet, you don't have a car. You don't make a computer, you don't make, er, televisions and radios and all the other things"you don't make anything. It's a 30-year effort to monopolize a very important thing. Now, in two years, we'll have magnets, all the magnets we want. Because of tariffs, listen I called, I said you're going to play the magnet, we're going to play the tariff on you." His confusion over magnetism is well documented, and the record suggests he was being sincere when he said, "Nobody knows" what they are.

The above Trump statement is gibberish.

Gibberish comes from someone who is gibbering.

I'm hoping that the man is on a downhill slide.

He sure seems it.

Perhaps he'll be dead by Christmas.

I remember what magnets are. They become useless when wet, don't they?

Trump got confused after he boasted to Ingraham, pointing to a sign that reads, "The Presidential Walk of Fame."
"Take a look at this if you want to see detail," Trump said. "Most people do a sign and paint it on the wall. So that's half-inch thick bronze. Carved by a very talented person. And it's brass. It's pure brass."
"You can't just do that, that's quality, right?"
While brass and bronze are both copper alloys, they are not the same thing. Brass is mixed with zinc, while bronze uses tin. They differ in color, with brass being closer to gold and bronze being reddish-brown.
California governor and pre-eminent Trump troll Gavin Newsom was quick to weigh in on the president's curious comments.
"Bronze. Brass. Brain damage. Trump's holy trinity," Newsom wrote on X, sharing video of the Fox footage on his Press Office account.
