He’ll just pull a covfefe and say that his supporters will understand.

Every time I see the conman, that’s my reaction. What the fuck is that on his head? It’s neither hide or hair!

Sadly, his _deminions_ (Hey, if he can make up words, so can I! _Deminions = Demented minions_.) will all point to “the alt-left, crybaby, libtards” focusing on this and say that proves there’s nothing they have against the “man”.

I very seriously doubt that he reads responses (or, for that matter, pretty much anything). I’m convinced that he’s been an undiagnosed dyslexic all his life; that would fit with every anecdote I’ve ever read/heard about his aversion to reading and difficulties with comprehension when forced to do so. (As a lifelong – so far – Southern New Englander, and a former _SPY_ subscriber, I’ve been exposed to this jackass since the '70s.) I’d wager that, to the extent he cares about responses, he makes some lackey read them and give him a (favorable) synopsis.

Here’s an 8½-minute bit from during the campaign that’s funny and sad and quite possibly dead-accurate; it’s late-night cable comedy, so there’s some NSFW language:

[[NSFW]_A Full Frontal Investigation: Trump Can’t Read | Full Frontal with Samantha Bee_](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7LFkN7QGp2c)

Oh, and I also doubt he’s self-aware enough to ever be embarrassed. (That’s not snark, although I’m snarky about him all the time; that’s my actual, honest belief.)

When interacting with his minions, always refer to Him as their Messiah. It drives them absolutely bonkers.

Not bad. I’m also rather partial to ‘psychofants’.

No, no … I liked it the first way better. “Sycophantic, psychotic infants” seems perfect. 🙂 It was more of an “ISWYDT” wink.

Thanks for the link! I don’t always agree with McWhorter but that was a great article and he was spot on! 🙂

Individual 1 during his press conference at the UN yesterday:

But you know you look at that – most presidential, I just said I’m the most presidential except for possibly Abe Lincoln when he wore the hat – that was tough to beat. Honest Abe, when he wore that hat, that was tough to beat. Honest Abe, when he wore that hat, that was tough to beat. But I can’t do that, that hat wouldn’t work for me. Yeah, I have better hair than him. But Honest Abe was tough to beat. Remember we used to do that during the campaign. They used to say, when I speak, the crowd would go crazy, I’d go crazy, we would all go crazy. We had a lot of fun together. We had 25,000 – We’ve never had an empty seat. From the day I came down the escalator, with a potential – unbelieveable woman who became a first lady.

My god, did he really repeat the "Honest Abe … hat … tough to beat line **three times** in a row? Is he trying to come up with a new “Head on! Apply directly to the forehead!” commercial?

I can’t believe he thinks he has better hair than old Abe. Heck, I’ve got better hair than Don, and I’m mostly bald.

Why, oh _why_ are you wondering? It’s like trying to analyze the feces a two-year old toddler has smeared on the wall. He’s proud of making a doody but it’s just a big stinking mess the adults have to clean up.
