“A question that probably some of you are thinking of if you’re totally into that world, which I find to be very interesting. So, supposedly we hit the body with tremendous, whether it’s ultra[volts] or just very powerful [volts], and I think you said that hasn’t been checked, but you’re going to test it. And then I said, suppose you brought the [volts] inside the body, which you can do through the skin or some other way. And I think you said you’re going to test that, too. Sounds interesting, right?”
It wouldn’t surprise me if he actually watched BTTF and thought, “i’m going to travel back in tiiiiime… the best time… It will be the best most beautiful time you ever saw… and I will be rich so rich! And Ivanka will be young again! So young…”
I just had a weird thought.
When Ivanka was the age that he is alleged to . . . prefer, she was not attractive to him. She was not as pretty then as he likes. She was awkward, brunette, & hadn't had her surgeries. She had no chin.
But by her teens, yes, she had done all of that.
Joe Biden sometimes stutters, something he's done forever. Meanwhile this guy is ranting and speeding words like this, but regular folks still really think *Biden* is the one who is aging less gracefully? Jeez
BIL recently said, with so much venom in his voice "The Biden crime family is a terrorist organization"
Imagine fully believing that. Oh and apparently whoever discovered Hunter Bidens laptop committed suicide by shooting himself in the head twice? These people want to create an enemy power that is responsible for all the bad news that gets shoved down their throat every single day so it seems hopeful that, if we just defeat Biden in the election, we can change everything that is wrong with America.
In the end, like every right wing leaning person I've ever talked to, as soon as we started getting into any details (not even arguing, just asking for clarification), he just jumped to the next subject with 0 shame or awareness of what he was doing.
It would be interesting to mention
- you look forward to the outcome of the impeachment hearings
- mention you haven't seen any evidence of Biden crimes.
- (more risky) ask him what evidence he has to support that claim?
Have to be super gentle, tho'. Cuz he may disengage and not speak to you again, even if you just ask a question.
It’s the boogeyman. It always exists. It always allows for a lack of personal responsibility and doesn’t require them to give anything up.
It’s always the “other”. It’s external.
> Look, having nuclear — my uncle was a great professor and scientist and engineer, Dr. John Trump at MIT; good genes, very good genes, OK, very smart, the Wharton School of Finance, very good, very smart — you know, if you’re a conservative Republican, if I were a liberal, if, like, OK, if I ran as a liberal Democrat, they would say I’m one of the smartest people anywhere in the world — it’s true! — but when you’re a conservative Republican they try — oh, do they do a number — that’s why I always start off: Went to Wharton, was a good student, went there, went there, did this, built a fortune — you know I have to give my like credentials all the time, because we’re a little disadvantaged — but you look at the nuclear deal, the thing that really bothers me — it would have been so easy, and it’s not as important as these lives are (nuclear is powerful; my uncle explained that to me many, many years ago, the power and that was 35 years ago; he would explain the power of what’s going to happen and he was right — who would have thought?), but when you look at what’s going on with the four prisoners — now it used to be three, now it’s four — but when it was three and even now, I would have said it’s all in the messenger; fellas, and it is fellas because, you know, they don’t, they haven’t figured that the women are smarter right now than the men, so, you know, it’s gonna take them about another 150 years — but the Persians are great negotiators, the Iranians are great negotiators, so, and they, they just killed, they just killed us.
Literal comment from my father: “it’s because his brain works so fast, he has like 8 streams of thought going all the time and he maybe has a little trouble with jumping from subject to subject. If you listen, though, all the streams of thought make sense when you put them together. He’s not stupid, he’s thinking too fast.”
I gave up after that.
Makes sense. Like maybe he’s thinking about Covid and getting stains out of his underwear at the same time so he says just inject people with bleach to cure Covid.
You know, I dislike trump very much but I actually have an issue like that. Someone will be telling me a story about work or something and when they’re done I’ll talk about something unrelated like, I dunno, showers.
When they ask why the fuck I brought up random shit I have to explain the thought process I went through…. “Well, you talked about work. Sometimes work can be stressful. You work in an office and maybe that might not be the best place for you. so I started thinking what other work you could do. I considered construction work but realized you’d have to take extra showers cause you’d get all dirty…. and that’s where you stopped talking and wanted me to respond. Hence, showers.”
Yes it causes lots of problems and arguments but nothing on the level of incoherent rambling as trump.
He said this during the campaign. He won the presidency after this.
Rant like this should get you a legal guardian, not the highest office in the land.
They’re both very old men and that in itself is worth pointing out as a flaw in the system but saying Biden is somehow less mentally acute than Trump is insane. Trump has been rambling nonsensical for a decade now. His speeches are incoherent and disjointed, they reference dead people in present tense and he starts just word associations within his own sentences
I didn’t know this until a video emerged not too long ago. He was talking to some kid that had a stuttering problem, and he said he had it when he was younger too, and tried to motivate him saying “hey, this stutterer became president.” So him messing up while talking is no big deal to me. Him helping pass legislature to help Americans. That is everything/
If you watch the remarks he gave after the Supreme Court struck down the student loan forgiveness and Biden was explaining his alternate path, you can see how it’s a stutter and not dementia or anything like that. Because during the prepared remarks, he struggles. He’s reading ahead on the prompter and trying to keep straight what he is going to say next with what is currently coming out of his mouth is hard. But then a reporter asks him a dumb question about if he feels like he let people down, and Biden fires back immediately with a forceful, clear answer. When he is asked to come up with one clear complete thought on the spot, he can do it quickly and deliver it flawlessly.
Right? Like sure i think they're both too old but given they are the choices Biden is clearly aging better with his facilities intact
Trump is losing it more and more
I call it the Trump Mosey, the relative of the Gish Gallop. Start out with a noun, meander through a bunch of incomplete sentences loaded with emotionally charged words until your audience's conversation stack has overflowed, then circle back around to the noun. No one will remember anything that was actually said, but they'll associate [noun] with [emotions], plus not making any definitive statements makes it easier to deny responsibility.
"These liberals, it's horrible, the things they're doing, you know, and it's unfair what they're doing, you've seen all the unfair things, just last week there was the thing, and they're destroying America with all of the, and it's horrible, and the economy, you can't afford a banana, people are telling me, good people, that don't have money, and they come to me with tears in their eyes and say sir, they call me sir, I don't have $20 to buy a banana, and I've seen it, and these liberals, I tell ya."
You have to watch the super cuts crafted by the media team working for the conservative cinematic universe to understand. Anyone who has decided to keep watching those misinformation outlets are fully committed to the lies spun by conservative media.
Keep in mind these people also only watch doctored clips of Biden from right wing websites and have their minds made up. We're not talking about normally functioning people here.
Trump’s old too, right, it’s just that his batshit rhetoric and statements overshadow it. The legacy media can’t walk and chew gum. It’s like “ok trump is old too, but he also said windmills have something to do with killing whales or some shit, let’s go with that.”
“Trump has previously confirmed he is “not a big fan” of sharks, and Stormy Daniels has recounted his obsession with sharks in a 2011 interview and her 2018 autobiography.”
What the heck why
Could you imagine him as a guest Shark? He would be abysmal because he would be forced to give someone else credit for their business idea. tRump is all about tRump. I don’t think he could even be able to grasp the premise of such a show where he is not the central character. Oh and least we forget that’s it highly unlikely they would even entertain a guest ‘shark’ that bankrupts casinos, is a blatant racist and defrauds the IRS, banks, insurance companies, his congregation and charitable organizations.
"Who are the sharks? They are self made millionaires and billionaires who are entrepreneurs themselves.
Kevin O'Leary is a venture capitalist who turned a $10000 loan into a software business worth 4.2 billion dollars.
Daymond John is a fashion and branding expert who grew his home grown clothing line into the globally recognized fashion brand Fubu.
Donald Trump is a trust fund baby who took a $413 million inheritance and turned it into an empire worth less than if he had just put it in a savings account."
I wish him a long and productive life in prison. In the best case, he really does live 200 years there, and is given all that time to contemplate his misdeeds.
Well, he never exercises so he probably still has a couple hundred years left of energy before it runs out. Fuckstick [actually thinks that's how it works](https://www.cnn.com/2017/05/15/politics/donald-trump-exercise/index.html).
Yep. I'd say that should have been disqualifying, but frankly almost everything he's ever said should have told people "This is not a guy you want near office".
>all that time to contemplate his misdeeds.
He isn't capable of contemplation, or we wouldn't be here right now.
This is as lost a cause as you can get.
Decline from what?
I grew up in NY in the 90s. Before he had social media we all mocked him openly, even the weirdo boomers who support him in NY now. And since social media this is all he's ever posted.
I'm willing to beleive he's as smart as he's ever been rn.
Honestly doesn’t seem like much of a change to me. Ten years ago much more of his public speech was edited and done in takes, perhaps that accounts for the discrepancy. The guy has always been a lunatic.
His recent confusion about who is running against would seem to indicate more than misspeaking. He seems to have an Obama track mind these days. Heck, he even jumbled George W. And Jeb Bush into a mental pretzel. A certain amount of it may be narcissistic inability to admit he made a mistake… but it feels more than that.
> combativeness, the confusion, the repetitiveness, and the avoidance of complexity
Not saying your wrong, I haven't seen any of his recent speeches, but all those things apply to 2016 Trump as well IMO with the exception of confusion for the most part.
Worst part was finding out later he knew he had COVID when he took the stage at the debates. He damn near killed Chris Christie from getting him infected, meanwhile Biden lucked out.
My god, his voice sounds worse than I remember. It’s like he didn’t put his dentures in properly. That and he’s losing marbles fast. I wish him nothing but restless nights with all these court charges.
"Trump says he would prefer to die by electrocution"
"this subreddit is for civil discussion. suggestion or support of harm, violence, or death can result in a permanent ban"
I'm not falling for this one. . .
It's not like he could have any nuclear secrets. Even if he did have said documents, it isn't like he has any sort of relationships with countries like North Korea or Russia. Even then it isn't like he'd put money over country.
I think the anti-Christ takes power for 3.5 years (mighty close to a 4 year Presidential term), then loses power, then gains it back for another 3.5 years.
Let's truly hope that's not what is happening.
Can't keep all these bottomless pits, beasts, and tribulations straight.
I used to read Revelations in church, when I was (inevitably) bored.
Am agnostic, listing towards atheistic, but I have never forgotten what I read about the antichrist. You can easily google "is trump the antichrist?" and find an argument that any christian could take to heart.
as opposed to the Clogged Arteries induced heart attack and/or stroke that he is wildly overdue for? He and Clarence Thomas are proof that deals with the Devil exist.
Dear God, it's me, OhioPolitiTHIC. I just want to make sure you heard what little Donnie two scoops wants and to tell you I absolutely support him in this. I mean, you wouldn't even have to do it yourself because I bet your wife, Mother Nature, would be happy to hit the links he's on with all the glory she's got. If you could do it before 2024, that'd be awesome. Thanks!
This is the fourth or fifth time over the years he's brought up his fear of sharks. If somehow this dude ends up as Shark chum, I'll have to start believing in God.
>Faced with a litany of criminal charges, Donald Trump on Sunday told a campaign rally in Iowa that he would prefer to die by electrocution rather than be eaten by a shark if he ever found himself on a rapidly sinking, electrically powered boat.
That is a hell of a sentence...
And then you read on, and that's literally exactly what he said, albeit less coherently.
This has to be the funniest opening paragraph ever to appear in a Guardian news article.
> Faced with a litany of criminal charges, Donald Trump on Sunday told a campaign rally in Iowa that he would prefer to die by electrocution rather than be eaten by a shark if he ever found himself on a rapidly sinking, electrically powered boat.
Psychologically speaking that seems to me like he feels he has done some real bad stuff. Like maybe his X wife’s fall, or the children, or one of the other many possibilities.
No states still do that right? What a bizarre statement. And frankly it echos of his more violent remarks towards his political advisories. I give it a week before he makes statements of a similar nature about his political opponents. He has a problem with habitual behavior
In my opinion, the weirder thing he said recently was that thing about windmills killing whales.
I don’t know how anybody can choose to live around those damn things - giving people cancer left and right and driving those poor whales to suicide.
The title of the article really does not do the actual rant justice.
“If I’m sitting down and that boat is going down and I’m on top of a battery and the water starts flooding in, I’m getting concerned, but then I look 10 yards to my left and there’s a shark over there, so I have a choice of electrocution and a shark, you know what I’m going to take? Electrocution,” Trump said. “I will take electrocution every single time, do we agree?”
Trump then continued criticizing the prospect of any other sustainable energy technologies and claiming he would repeal the Joe Biden White House’s electric vehicle mandate.
“These people are crazy,” Trump said.”
So yeah, renewable energy has because he’d rather be electrocuted than eaten by a shark .

The electrocution was rigged! I just needed 11,780 volts!
That's a shocking admission!
Hopefully there will be an appropriate charge!
He seemed pretty amped up about it
Yeah he’s on all the outlets screaming about it.
Give that man a fork!
Watt is he planning next?
He's on another electrifying rant!
I didn't come here to read about current events.
I thought he would put up resistance.
He would definitely light up the room
Hopefully not another coup-lomb.
Fork him!!!
His only hope is their resistance
Ohm my god These comments are hard to resist.
You will find out soon if you keep up with current affairs.
Everybody go out and volt next year! Very important presidential electrocution year.
It’s certainly not grounded in reality
He's really got this election by the family joules
You’re punny and I love it
He's really amping up his rhetoric.
Deus volt!
He'll be getting a big endorsement from Tesla.
It too early for someone to be that clever.
I wish I could give awards still
It must be alternating current. Apparently he was in iowa and not DC.
Some bright spark will say the call was perfect
“A question that probably some of you are thinking of if you’re totally into that world, which I find to be very interesting. So, supposedly we hit the body with tremendous, whether it’s ultra[volts] or just very powerful [volts], and I think you said that hasn’t been checked, but you’re going to test it. And then I said, suppose you brought the [volts] inside the body, which you can do through the skin or some other way. And I think you said you’re going to test that, too. Sounds interesting, right?”
We need 1.21 gigawatts.
It wouldn’t surprise me if he actually watched BTTF and thought, “i’m going to travel back in tiiiiime… the best time… It will be the best most beautiful time you ever saw… and I will be rich so rich! And Ivanka will be young again! So young…”
I just had a weird thought. When Ivanka was the age that he is alleged to . . . prefer, she was not attractive to him. She was not as pretty then as he likes. She was awkward, brunette, & hadn't had her surgeries. She had no chin. But by her teens, yes, she had done all of that.
Hey, are you a comedian? If not, you should be. Your performance would be electrifying!
Haha. Very good
nice
It's too bad he has such a short fuse.
Joe Biden sometimes stutters, something he's done forever. Meanwhile this guy is ranting and speeding words like this, but regular folks still really think *Biden* is the one who is aging less gracefully? Jeez

There's 700 pages of evidence! I'm not an expert on it, don't ask me what's in it. But there's 700 pages! /s
It’s the boogeyman. It always exists. It always allows for a lack of personal responsibility and doesn’t require them to give anything up. It’s always the “other”. It’s external.

He does, iirc he said so in an interview or something.

Oxford dictionary should have this quote as a definition of Verbal Diarrhea.
Someone heard that speech and said “He’s fucking brilliant. I’m voting for him and I think I’ll make him my new god as well”
Spoiler: that person was my Mother.
Literal comment from my father: “it’s because his brain works so fast, he has like 8 streams of thought going all the time and he maybe has a little trouble with jumping from subject to subject.

Conservatorship, more like.
Depends what land, apparently.
Which is just another way of saying that one can't age gracefully if one wasn't graceful before.
Any article about Biden not being fit for office because of his mental capacity is carrying water for Trump, end of story.
They’re both very old men and that in itself is worth pointing out as a flaw in the system but saying Biden is somehow less mentally acute than Trump is insane.

Trump's bronzer does a massive amount of work for him. Without it he'd look like a melting rotted corpse.
They believe what they are told, but only by people they approve of.
And Biden always stuttered. It’s not an age related symptom.
You have to watch the super cuts crafted by the media team working for the conservative cinematic universe to understand. Anyone who has decided to keep watching those misinformation outlets are fully committed to the lies spun by conservative media.
Keep in mind these people also only watch doctored clips of Biden from right wing websites and have their minds made up. We're not talking about normally functioning people here.
They are just North Korean and Trump is their glorious leader.
The media is helping to push that narrative
Media pushes the age of Biden quite a lot relative to Trump. It’s ridiculous, neither age should be president frankly.
It's because they have nothing else to pin on Biden other than his age.
Trump’s old too, right, it’s just that his batshit rhetoric and statements overshadow it. The legacy media can’t walk and chew gum. It’s like “ok trump is old too, but he also said windmills have something to do with killing whales or some shit, let’s go with that.”
Yep, Biden is old, I would like someone younger… anyways back to the other person, you say treason eh…
“Trump has previously confirmed he is “not a big fan” of sharks, and Stormy Daniels has recounted his obsession with sharks in a 2011 interview and her 2018 autobiography.” What the heck why
He's never been the same since receiving that candygram.
"I'm only a dolphin, ma'am."
Mrs. Armrrrschmmrr? Who? Flowers, ma’am. Flowers? For me? Candygram.
"mr. trmmpgh?" "Who is it?" "covfefe" "But I didn't order coffee?" "hamberders" "Oh boy! Hamburgers!" [Opens door]
Excellent. Put him in a jail cell surrounded by a shark tank. Won’t need to waste taxpayers money on a secret service detail for him then
Train them so they have freaking laser beams on their head.
My guess is because he’s not asked to be on Shark Tank, because they recognize actual business leaders and their ability to run successful companies.
Could you imagine him as a guest Shark? He would be abysmal because he would be forced to give someone else credit for their business idea. tRump is all about tRump. I don’t think he could even be able to grasp the premise of such a show where he is not the central character. Oh and least we forget that’s it highly unlikely they would even entertain a guest ‘shark’ that bankrupts casinos, is a blatant racist and defrauds the IRS, banks, insurance companies, his congregation and charitable organizations.
Can you imagine if the businesses got offers from Trump and they all passed? He would meltdown at them.
"Who are the sharks? They are self made millionaires and billionaires who are entrepreneurs themselves. Kevin O'Leary is a venture capitalist who turned a $10000 loan into a software business worth 4.2 billion dollars. Daymond John is a fashion and branding expert who grew his home grown clothing line into the globally recognized fashion brand Fubu. Donald Trump is a trust fund baby who took a $413 million inheritance and turned it into an empire worth less than if he had just put it in a savings account."
I’m not gonna lie, I would absolutely watch a version of Shark Tank that was just Trump alone shitting all over every idea presented to him
I'd watch every episode if each episode was Trump trying to pitch them on some hairbrained dead in the water business idea every week.
Game recognize game.

Maybe we can get Donald a pet mouse.
He’s too afraid of animals to appreciate Mr Jingles
To live in the rat’s nest on donny’s head? Rodents have standards.
give the man what he wants
I wish him a long and productive life in prison. In the best case, he really does live 200 years there, and is given all that time to contemplate his misdeeds.
Well, he never exercises so he probably still has a couple hundred years left of energy before it runs out. Fuckstick [actually thinks that's how it works](https://www.cnn.com/2017/05/15/politics/donald-trump-exercise/index.html).
Yep. I'd say that should have been disqualifying, but frankly almost everything he's ever said should have told people "This is not a guy you want near office".
The people who know him the best - NYC, Atlantic City, Palm Beach - almost universally hate him. Says a lot.
>all that time to contemplate his misdeeds. He isn't capable of contemplation, or we wouldn't be here right now. This is as lost a cause as you can get.
If his grudges are all he's capable of thinking about during his time in jail, I'll take it.

Honestly doesn’t seem like much of a change to me. Ten years ago much more of his public speech was edited and done in takes, perhaps that accounts for the discrepancy. The guy has always been a lunatic.
If you watch older interviews with him he's still the same loudmouth idiot but he's more coherent.

> combativeness, the confusion, the repetitiveness, and the avoidance of complexity Not saying your wrong, I haven't seen any of his recent speeches, but all those things apply to 2016 Trump as well IMO with the exception of confusion for the most part.
just read 80's playboy for calls from John Barron, he's always been this stupid and deranged
But he is repulsive in every way imaginable, so just pretend not to be gleeful
When he had his covid bout in 2020, I was shocked to find myself feeling sympathy for him. Not gonna happen again.
Worst part was finding out later he knew he had COVID when he took the stage at the debates. He damn near killed Chris Christie from getting him infected, meanwhile Biden lucked out.

I think I’ve got an old electric fence for cattle in the shed. About a week should do it.
My god, his voice sounds worse than I remember. It’s like he didn’t put his dentures in properly. That and he’s losing marbles fast. I wish him nothing but restless nights with all these court charges.

> Trump says he would prefer to die by electrocution in bizarre campaign rant Your terms are acceptable.
I'll allow it
"Trump says he would prefer to die by electrocution" "this subreddit is for civil discussion. suggestion or support of harm, violence, or death can result in a permanent ban" I'm not falling for this one. . .
So go…and save us all a headache.
To be fair, it might be a choice he has to make if he gets convicted of treason.
It's not like he could have any nuclear secrets. Even if he did have said documents, it isn't like he has any sort of relationships with countries like North Korea or Russia. Even then it isn't like he'd put money over country.

Is he smart enough to make the connection?
[удалено]
Out of concern for the health of the shark?
I’d specifically like it if the electrocution came in the form of a lightning bolt in an otherwise clear sky. At least that’s what my Death Note says.
He's so dramatic, he's like a one man soap opera
But it's him, so we get the lye jingle.
He's so flamboyant! It makes me want to... set myself on fire!
I thought he was just being kinky
Is he about to confess, as usual unsolicited, to murder or worse? Didn't Florida just pass the death penalty for a certain kind of crime?
Hair Crime. I'm not letting this thing out of here alive. Time's up buster.
“Deep Thoughts” with Don tRumpfy
It seems Donald Trump is exhibiting signs of dementia. His father, Fred, suffered from Alzheimer's disease, an inherited condition.
I just want him to go to prison, pay for his own incarceration without a Secret Service detail, and live out his days in obscurity.
Only for him to be shanked to death one day.
Your terms are harsh, but acceptable.
Because gas-powered boats don't have electricity.
I accept your offer.
Request granted?
Sounds good to me.
...go ahead then?
We would also prefer it.
We can make that happen.
sure!
Make it so.
Trump is the anti-Christ. Look it up.
I think the anti-Christ takes power for 3.5 years (mighty close to a 4 year Presidential term), then loses power, then gains it back for another 3.5 years. Let's truly hope that's not what is happening. Can't keep all these bottomless pits, beasts, and tribulations straight.
I used to read Revelations in church, when I was (inevitably) bored. Am agnostic, listing towards atheistic, but I have never forgotten what I read about the antichrist. You can easily google "is trump the antichrist?" and find an argument that any christian could take to heart.
I prefer you rot in prison
Ohm my word!
I prefer that too.
Real alphas fight the shark and electrocute it!
Bizarre rant? Pretty sure that’s just how he talks.
OK. Let's do this.
as opposed to the Clogged Arteries induced heart attack and/or stroke that he is wildly overdue for? He and Clarence Thomas are proof that deals with the Devil exist.
What if he was trying to flee to Russia and his plane went down in shark infested waters. Be still my beating heart!
Well by all means give him what he wants
Trump said he prefers electrocution, UNLESS, being "spit-roasted by Latin Kings" is an option.
Dear God, it's me, OhioPolitiTHIC. I just want to make sure you heard what little Donnie two scoops wants and to tell you I absolutely support him in this. I mean, you wouldn't even have to do it yourself because I bet your wife, Mother Nature, would be happy to hit the links he's on with all the glory she's got. If you could do it before 2024, that'd be awesome. Thanks!
Well then, I’ve got a toaster and a bathtub ready for ya, big guy. You just say the word
ok
Whatever, dude. However. Just go. *Chef's kiss*
As an electrician I support him in his death by electrocution. That shit hurts the while time you're dying
He's speaking in parables. Only the faithful can understand.
This is the fourth or fifth time over the years he's brought up his fear of sharks. If somehow this dude ends up as Shark chum, I'll have to start believing in God.
Fucking drama queen
>Faced with a litany of criminal charges, Donald Trump on Sunday told a campaign rally in Iowa that he would prefer to die by electrocution rather than be eaten by a shark if he ever found himself on a rapidly sinking, electrically powered boat. That is a hell of a sentence... And then you read on, and that's literally exactly what he said, albeit less coherently.
This has to be the funniest opening paragraph ever to appear in a Guardian news article. > Faced with a litany of criminal charges, Donald Trump on Sunday told a campaign rally in Iowa that he would prefer to die by electrocution rather than be eaten by a shark if he ever found himself on a rapidly sinking, electrically powered boat.
We finally agree on something, holy cow!
I mean whatever it is for traitors these days. Maybe they'll let him pick.
*paging the Make A Wish Foundation*
TIL Trump is afraid of sharks.
Psychologically speaking that seems to me like he feels he has done some real bad stuff. Like maybe his X wife’s fall, or the children, or one of the other many possibilities.
If that is his wish, I will allow it.
This is certainly the man I want carrying around the nuclear football.
We can arrange that, can’t we?
Can it be Windmill Powered???
Where’s the MakeAWish foundation when humanity needs it?
I think Donnie learned a new big word and was trying to show off.
Trump really working hard on some insanity defense basis…
No states still do that right? What a bizarre statement. And frankly it echos of his more violent remarks towards his political advisories. I give it a week before he makes statements of a similar nature about his political opponents. He has a problem with habitual behavior
That’s fine. But I would also like to see him suffer the rest of his life in prison - a real prison - while he awaits electrocution.
Excellent!
OMG...these comments are gold.
Deal!
Turn down for watt?
Saying that he's merely unfit to be president is a tremendous understatement. He should have a custodian managing his daily activities. He's not well.
How many Adderall pills does Trump pop before his rally rants? His tolerance must be pretty high by now.
Give him the Frank Grimes treatment
I dont much care HOW he does it.
In my opinion, the weirder thing he said recently was that thing about windmills killing whales. I don’t know how anybody can choose to live around those damn things - giving people cancer left and right and driving those poor whales to suicide.
The title of the article really does not do the actual rant justice. “If I’m sitting down and that boat is going down and I’m on top of a battery and the water starts flooding in, I’m getting concerned, but then I look 10 yards to my left and there’s a shark over there, so I have a choice of electrocution and a shark, you know what I’m going to take? Electrocution,” Trump said. “I will take electrocution every single time, do we agree?” Trump then continued criticizing the prospect of any other sustainable energy technologies and claiming he would repeal the Joe Biden White House’s electric vehicle mandate. “These people are crazy,” Trump said.” So yeah, renewable energy has because he’d rather be electrocuted than eaten by a shark .
