it’s a fake tweet
“Did I say that? I can’t believe I said that.”
He actually never did say this one. It’s a joke.

This kind of misinformation (OP) should either be tagged or not allowed at all. Like, most of us understand it’s a joke but still, maybe we should have better standards than other sites.
yall i got to it as soon as i had time to edit the post and i thanked and upvoted the fact check as soon as i got the notification
literally chill. it’s now tagged. this is a meme community.
You know what I care about in my meme communities? Absolute truth. It can’t be a joke or satire, and absolutely no absurdity, it has to be factual information only in my meme communities.
I think there’s a difference between meme and a completely made up Tweet (or any social media post) where a non-user would not be able to tell if the Tweet is real.
Please tag your post as a joke, not real, or similar. If you leave it in its current state [2], you are knowingly peddling disinformation [1].
Update (2025-03-06T01:45Z): OP has modified the post’s body stating that it’s a fake tweet [3]. Imo, the title should preface that it’s fake [1].

As much as I admire this, it must be remembered that the Orange Clown does not play by any rules, including those he imposes on others.
