Trump retweets picture I used yesterday to mock him [1]

Flabbergasted. Discombobulated. Laughing like hell.
I couldn't make it up. Yesterday I did a post called Donald quotes Napoleon. Somebody else on Truth Social spotted the same picture, sent it to Donald, and he used it like he was proud of it.
Did he know the quote had been attributed to Napoleon when he Truth Social'ed it yesterday, or did he think it came from the movie with Rod Steiger that community member annieli described? Now that he thinks it came from Napoleon, it's even better, and he's admitting he thinks he's like Napoleon, an emperor?
Did Trump have this all along, with the 10th date stamp on the bottom, and tried to co-op the quote, and when everybody went nuts about his post, showed where it came from?
Maybe he should use this quote attributed to Bonaparte:
"In politics, stupidity is not a handicap."
You make the call. Had to share this.
_______________________________
Then I found a chilling use of the quote.
Maybe Donald shouldn't want to emulate it
An hour and a half later, Trump did a lap at Daytona Speedway, but didn't crash...
Not everyone was happy that Donald was there. "It wasn't bad enough that Donald Trump wasted millions attending half of the Super Bowl last weekend.. but now he's attending the NASCAR Daytona 500. How much is that hosing the taxpayers for today?"
TV watchers also complained about time given to Air Force One flying overhead and Donald at the track.
