People can’t stop cracking up over the former president’s bizarre, bumbling speech.
People can’t stop cracking up over the former president’s bizarre, bumbling speech.
Speaking outside Allentown, Pennsylvania, on Sunday, Donald Trump left everyone confused when he attempted to explain the Battle of Gettysburg, praised (and invented a quote from) Confederate General Robert E. Lee, and generally had no idea what he was talking about.
When his off-the-cuff remarks hit late-night television on Monday, the hosts couldn’t hide their laughter.
“You have to hand it to this guy: On the weekend before his unprecedented criminal trial begins, he somehow manages to overshadow it with this broken-brained interpretation of what happened at Gettysburg during the Civil War,” Jimmy Kimmel quipped.
Tinfoil hat time... Repeated misquotes like this make me wonder if it's a signal to someone who he isn't able to contact directly because his communications are closely monitored.
It's easy to say he's just dumb, but clearly he's quite capable. But maybe he's just using filler words because he has fuck-all to say.
More specifically, he has broken impulse control (even affects his speech), a small vocabulary, poor memory recall (all these combined results in his "bigly" choice of words), and he has a ridiculously small minded world view and very limited understanding of other humans ("theory of mind"). In the last few years he's also becoming much more prone to losing his train of thought and failing to comprehend things.
He kept the stolen classified documents in the Mar-a-Lago bathroom next to a copy machine. He is far too fucking dumb for a covert signal delivered publicly.
There are no consequences for any of his actions so there is no need for it either. He'll just go on national TV and literally say, "everyone in the hate group, stand by."
Yes. After a full year of saying he won't accept election results unless he wins. And then we had an insurrection. So it is cool that even to this day we have clowns on social media pretending he didn't attack the country.
Looking down on your enemies is a surefire way to get surprised by them, just sayin.
Hell, everyone laughed and called him a circus act during the run up to his election, convinced he wouldnt win so no one dealt with him seriously, and look what happened? we got 4 years of Trumpism, stacked courts, the loss of Roe v Wade, and an epidemic resulted in over a million deaths, most of which would have been preventable if not for him and his actions.
So, sure, laugh at him. Mock him.. Just stop underestimating him.
Again, Trump is a moronic monkey. It's not his intelligence, smarts or whatever you want to label it. It's his team that makes things happen and it's the retarded voters that like him.
I'm not underestimating anything. The election is going to be a shit show and I'm positive the MAGA nuts will actually kill people on election day.
I didnt label anything. I said don't underestimate him.
You're the one coming out swinging wildly about his intelligence and being the living embodiment of the kind of attitude I was warning against in a petulant fit for some god forsaken reason.
Yep. Clearly I'm an idiot for saying dont underestimate the guy who already won once because everyone underestimated him, and as a result did massive damage.
What a fool am I.
You've certainly showed the world the depths of my ignorance there.
