Trump's way too engrossed with spreading lies and bolstering MAGA bigotries to care about facts, or about the essential work that NIH health scientists are doing.

Stupid is as stupid is
judyblue
Not only does he not understand it, but none of his sycophantic dingleberries understand it, either. That speech must have passed through dozens of grubby little hands before he got to the podium.
Bobby360
He doesn't care if what he says is rubbish, it's said to incite his moron followers
commanderding
Just reading that this claim of ‘millions on transgender mice’ and that ‘fact checking’ retractions are being issued. Millions were spent by institutions on effects of giving medications used in gender change care to mice etc etc.. breaking story
doccynical
This is up there with his "asylum seekers" all being criminals.
StunttheRunt
That whole lot deal out at anything with "trans" in the word. They go after Michael Bay soon. They won't be driving if someone tells them how the gears work.
Anyone else know what they'll fear on next with "trans" in it? Let's send them a list.
FelonyFerret
These are the dumbasses using keyword searches for "DEI practices" and "Woke ideology." to prove... something
DisgruntledFerret
The amount of Trump administration staff on record referring to him as a "fucking idiot" is... pretty much what you'd expect, actually.

Now, I only dabbled in microbiology, but isn't transgenic mold/bacterium how some pharmaceuticals are produced? Perhaps we should start calling our representatives and clamor for a ban on all transgenic procedures. Especially on things that are under 18 years old.

Stupidity and illiteracy are Republican values.

Someone redo the song "Scotty Doesn't Know" (by Lustra), but change Scotty to Trumpy. :D
doesntmattet4
Ok but right wingers don’t care. The experiments were about gender affirming care and transgender studies. They don’t care what gender the mice actually are
bexxMaker
If Biden had made such a false statement, his mental state would have been discussed in the media for days or weeks. Media now: *crickets*
SilverFoxChaser
It was on purpose. It pushes his hate agenda and is easy rescinded as an 'honest mistake' if fact checked.
popeyeNL
It's even on the WH website. Misinformation on the government websites!

the concepts and topics that trump doesn't understand is a single circle venn diagram with anything that isn't evil or greedy or pathetic

There’s more that he doesn’t understand!!

Trump Displays His Stupidity *During [insert any given event where he spoke]
StevenAlleyn
In his defence this might just be cuz he can’t read
EdinCOS
There are only 2 ways to see this.
1) He really is that dumb and his speechwriters are that dumb (possible and slightly probable).
2) He thinks YOU are that dumb (possible and most probable).
Not sure which one is worse. An idiot running the country or a country of idiots that believe everything he says.
androgenoide
Most people who lie try to make their lies somewhat plausible. The fact that he doesn't bother to do that suggests that he believes he is talking to idiots who wouldn't know the difference.
judithCat
How did he get an education?
JackArmstrong2000
He didn't. His bogus degree in "business" was bought by his corrupt father.
SlowerDwightYouIgnorantSlut
Republikkkans care WAAAAAYYYY too much what is in other people’s pants.
reverendbonobo
Even when those other people are mice.
KR1570F
they are just jealous of anyone that's confident enough and comfortable trying to live their own truth
BaddyOneShoe
I'm sure this will end his political career. As an embarrassing flub like this has done to many before him. Remember when Howard Dean screamed in an odd way and it was over?
KirbyUOR
I have never understood that. Even at the time, I asked people wtf was the issue and they told me it showed he was unstable and we don't need that in our government.
Guess who they've been voting for these days
JakeLangland
Old man can’t speak right. Doesn’t even know the different between ‘transgender’ and ‘transgenic’
Sebastopol140
His MAGA sheep don't know the difference either, and they don't care. All they will remember is the "OMG they spent 8 million dollars" bullshit.
MerriMod
It's right up there with the old gripe of "scientists are wasting money studying cow farts!"
suiseiseki
You could have left off the last two words entirely.
IWasGoingToMakeEspresso
They are also deathly afraid of things that they don’t understand even (or especially) when these things don’t affect them in any way.
TomBrokaw
Meanwhile they completely ignore that Trump has already spent more than that golfing.
Frankasti
14m for the superbowl alone.
Sebastopol140
Damn! You're right.
widiwi
quickly, someone remind him of all the TRANSistors in radios, tvs, computers, cellphones, etc...
mustardburp
I knew something was amiss when I got a Pontiac Trans Am instead of mail order ladyboy bride.
Usainbold
No wonder thats why there is no TRANSparency in what they do
fractalsphere
What about TRANSmissions in cars?
kirby422
Geez, first you gotta worry about the Gay Agenda, then the Trans Mission. Kids these days /s
Tengenstein
We need to start calling the US Transmexicanada instead.

FAKE NEWS! /s
But no, really, they think this is fake news:
https://www.whitehouse.gov/articles/2025/03/yes-biden-spent-millions-on-transgender-animal-experiments/
JackArmstrong2000
The Trump White House website twists what Trump said into a knot to confuse and lie anew. The experiments that they must have spent hours cherry-picking investigate the effects of hormones on responses to various chemicals and environmental factors: they DON'T make mice transgender, and they DON'T relate in any way to transgender treatments and operations with people.
iananimated
And how could a mouse even say Hey, I know I have a female body but I feel like I'm a male? Ridiculous!
EdinCOS
Wow, what a twist on truth to say they were making transgender mice. The biggest study it mentions ($3.1M) is about asthma in men and women, and just mentions "trans" in the summary as not being studied. There is no way his followers could read and understand the medical abstract to tell that Trump is lying.
rangerdood
I really love that our official top level government website unironically uses the phrase "Fake News losers"
VerySmallDuck
Yeah this really leaped out at me as well. We've been turned into a joke.

yup. just handing everyone the response to the response so they are prepared to re-respond. o7 (fuck I hate this timeline)
Zange0
From most to least expensive: A study on asthma. Long term impacts of testosterone use on fertility. Impacts of high amounts of androgen on your endocrine system. Impacts of hormonal suppressants on the gut microbiome. Research on HIV vaccine effectiveness on gender-affirming care. Impact of FTM testosterone on breast cancer.
Zange0
Just to say this again the one that makes up over a third of their complaint is literally just asthma research. There's a difference in how asthma presents by sex, so they were seeing how much of that is hormonal.
LennyNero
Men also get gender-affirming testosterone. And it does have increased cancer risks. Would be nice to know if it applies to breast cancer too since men RARELY get checked for breast cancer.
LennyNero
Further, post-menopausal women, and women who have had oophorectomies sometimes get TT in combination with female hormones and it is considered gender affirming there too.
PwnageHobo
And how many millions of dollars has Trump spent oppressing minorities?
Mirrormancer
And how many millions playing golf?
mjperk
About the same as what DOGE has "saved"
DisillusionedMe
Or impressing Putin ??
