“Let them watch cake.”
Or as Jon Stewart said on The Daily Show, Trump is showing support for his hometown team by wearing orange facepaint.
When facing a difficult situation, you should should always pause and ask yourself “What would Milli Vanilli do?” And the answer will be clear; blame it on the rain.
Donald Trump today explained why he lost his composure during his recent interview with Kristen Welker: “It was raining. And it was with NBC fake news. And because it was raining, I got a little bit angry at them. I was not happy with them. But we had a good time.”
Last time he got caught out in the rain he called dead soldiers suckers and losers.
Sure, but this interview was indoors.
Girl, you know it’s true.
Get the pliers - he’s stuck in Hemingway Mode.
Wow. NBC can control the weather? I’d be more careful about making them mad.
Maybe he had Kristen Welker confused with Dorothy Gale and thought the rain was a plot to melt him.
Watch out for those winged monkeys!
Eh, I get seasonal affective disorder if it rains. Even when I’m indoors. Heck I get depressed watching a movie that depicts somewhere it’s always overcast or raining. It’s a symptom of growing up somewhere sunny.
I can pretend to be normal when working though. Unlike someone so competent they got elected PoTUS.
That Tricky Joe!
Should’ve known he was behind it.
I can’t find a transcript of the interview, but I read a quote in an article the other day that referenced the rain. I’m guessing the interview was done in a barn-like structure, which may have had a metal roof, and the noise caused disruptions in the interview.
Edit: I just found this AI result:
WELKER: As we’re having this conversation, we can hear a little bit of rain.
TRUMP: No, a lot of rain.
WELKER: A lot of rain.
When I read it the other day, I thought Welker said there was a lot of rain, and Trump contradicted her by saying, ‘No, a lot of rain.’ The AI result shows that I mis-read/mis-remembered what Welker sdaid.
Pour baby. ![]()
Here it is.
Heh.
Jimmy Kimmel’s writers had the same association: this re-edit of Donald’s attire will be indelible in the minds of anyone who sees it:
I see that photo and in my head, he’s saying, “I’m gonna make it rain, Jack! I’m not foolin’ around!”
Full diaper notwithstanding, pretty sure Donald’s legs look a bit more sickly than that.
Here’s yet another method for the rubes to be fleeced.
