Reminds of a scene on Curb where Larry discovers Leon has been secretly eating watermelon.

Actually, the one detail he might remember from one of those briefings would be “a bomb that if dropped on NYC would destroy everything to the Carolinas.” It’s the kind of detail 5-year-old boys remember and embellish.

But I still think he just made it up.

Trump has been photographed eating from a KFC bucket, albeit with a knife and fork. [CNN article](https://www.cnn.com/videos/politics/2016/08/02/kfc-knife-and-fork-moos-pkg-erin.cnn).

I think he pisses me because his election stand dancing is worse than “Kevin” in this satirical geriatric punk gansta rap group’s offering. I am not joking.

Utterly not safe for work.

Here’s a short article about that.

> Before Tweets and Facebook comments, there was the good-old-fashioned letter to the editor, which let people air their grievances with a publication. One such letter from 1992 resurfaced in New York magazine's 50th anniversary edition, out now, and...

At the time that letter was written, Trump’s real life personal secretary was named Norma Foerderer.

Jonathan Turley wrote an [article in The Hill](https://thehill.com/opinion/criminal-justice/4486580-before-joe-james-and-hunter-there-was-great-great-grandpa-moses/) that suggests that Biden’s great-great-grandfather was convicted of attempted murder, and that Biden’s not being held responsible for [insert bullshit crime here] is something that he’s just genetically inherited.

I won’t link to the tweet, but [here](https://imgur.com/a/Fig1kCG) is a screenshot of his promoting the theory.

I am perfectly willing to believe that that letter was typed up and sent in to the magazine by Trump’s secretary, given that I doubt that Trump would ever do such menial work himself. It is refreshing to know that Ms. Foerderer had enough self esteem not to attach her actual name to the dictation.

I’m not. Trump will go to great lengths to promote himself and/or defend his name. Don’t think of it as effort, think of it as a compulsion, he can’t help it. And he’s known to have done similar things multiple times, so often that it has become a punchline.

A number of people have pointed out how that letter so closely resembles his normal way of speaking. Especially this part.

> The most beautiful women, the most successful women—all women love Donald Trump.

Now if you’re saying he dictated that to his secretary, and she wrote and sent it in… That I’m on board with.
