That interview worked out so much better in his head.

And after Donny Two-scoops harped on CNN for being ‘dumb bastards’ for continuing to talk about COVID, Brianna Keilar had [this response](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dngf8FThNy0).

Trump’s tweet confuses me. It appears that he thinks this:

Liddle’

Is he thinking of Lil’ Abner or something?

Yeah, but SOMETHING has to have been wafting through that wispy cloud that passes for his brain. It is apparent from his tweet that he believes _Liddle’_ means something. The question is, what?
