alt Hacker NewsI get that title length is limited, but the "Trump Says" in the title is a pretty significant detail. He "says" things all the time.

What baffles me is why people still take it all seriously, we've had well over a decade to examine his patterns of behavior and the takeaway is that fully 99.999% of his utterances are worthless. In the rare case that his promises are turned into some shambling semblance of reality there's always plenty of warning; in the case of VZ and Maduro you had significant troop movements for months for example.
Unfortunately by treating his every utterance as requiring attention he gets what he wants, the media gets clicks, bloggers get clicks, and people get to use it as part of an eternal argument over "what comes next".
People here at least should be more adept at recognizing and responding to patterns.
That's true, but to play devils advocate for a second, just because he says something doesn't make it wrong or bad. Banning Wall Street from buying single-family homes is a great thing that I completely support, and I don't really care which president makes it happen.
