Is Trump confused?

Trying to put myself in his shoes I can imagine that he was about to say Kennedy, because he had that classy wife that he would have… well, he woud at least have tried, so anyway, then he remembered that he prefers presidents who weren’t shot, the losers, such a sucker he was in the end, and was about to say Eisenhower instead when he realized that could make him look old, so he went for Reagan because he can relate to his cognitive decline. At least he did not say Barry Goldwater, that would have been confused.

Now let me please step out of these horrible shoes, they hurt my knees with those raised heels.

I had 42 to pick from when I was a kid. My answer would’ve been FDR, because I learned about the New Deal in third grade and was amazed by it.

Not really. The kid that asked the question has probably had a history lesson in school where he was told about “The Presidents” with a brief and oversimplified description of each one. He can probably name his favourite President. (“I like Roosevelt because he invented teddy bears” or something similar.) And it’s not unreasonable for him to expect that an adult had similar lessons, and also had a favourite.

…so he chose one who got shot…

You know what? I feel stupid for not interpreting the question your way. That seems far more logical.

Personally I would have answered Lincoln and would not have imagined I had to limit it to those in office during my life.

Agree on both counts.

Which makes Trump’s answer even more asinine.

Slightly younger than Jeffy.

Trump has apparently spent 10-15 minutes at today’s rally telling a story about how Arnold Palmer had a huge dick.

Who had “Arnold Palmer’s dick” on their Trump Bingo card??

“They are serious guns. We got more guys, and every one of them is like central casting too. Holy shart. I’m looking. They look like Arnold Palmer! They look like Arnold! You can’t look better than Arnold.”

WHAT. THE. FUCK.

Um. At the risk of asking an asinine question … was this all supposed to be in reference to Schwarzenegger?

Hell, by now I’m the one who’s confused.

What the weeping creeping Jesus…

Probably Palmer. Trump is speaking in Latrobe, PA, which was Palmer’s home town.

He was speaking at Arnold Palmer Airport. The weird part was bringing up his control tower.

I suppose we should be grateful he didn’t talk about what Fred Rogers (also from Latrobe) looked like naked.

That article also notes:

Antonio Brown, for those who don’t follow the NFL, was a very talented wide receiver, who began behaving extremely erratically – even bizarrely – late in his career; it has been widely speculated that he suffers from the effects of head trauma.

Trump was a wrestler, of sorts.
