Izzat the 21st century equivalent of Russell’s teapot?
Trump biographer says that Convict Donald cut short a summer 2021 interview so he could “go upstairs and deal with the Afghanistan”.
Is there a synopsis? (Not watching a video.)
…it’s not a video, but here’s a relevant excerpt;
Apologies. It looked like it when I clicked.
More from that same author;
Is it possible that Donald Trump has an afghan named Stan?
Personally, my assumption was that it was a euphemism for taking a shit. Like “I have to see a man about a horse”.
I’d call that evacuating my forces from Turdistan.
If it wasn’t actually confusion, my thought is the same as yours. For somebody who used the term “shit-hole country” in a speech, referring to taking a dump as “dealing with (the) Afghanistan” seems like about the sort of 8yo boy humor he seems to favor.
I enjoy that humor too, but mostly in the privacy of my mind, and the company of my close friends. Not while being interviewed for a biography. Then again, Convict Donnie is well known for having no filters.
I laughed. 8yo boy humor is good humor.
As I often tell my wife:
The reality is that no male ever matures past 13. The adult males just learn when they need to fake it.
I may have to meme this.
Agree completely.
IMO it needs to be reworded to be punchier as a meme, but the idea is spot-on.
This is the first video I’ve seen that really shows his decline. He appears genuinely lost. Of course everyone has their off days, but if this becomes the new normal he’s definitely in a decline. If I had to extemporaneously speak every day I would have a lot more of these than Felon 1, but since I would have always had them, it wouldn’t mean anything.
It looks to me like he doesn’t quite realize he’s talking to real people in real time. He’s talking to the people running the teleprompter, editing the speech as he goes, with the expectation that they can fix it in post-production.
He seems to think he’s actually shooting an episode of a TV show. Compare it to the outtakes of his comments on Jan 7th:
He was a lot more coherent then. But you can see how he edits it as he’s talking.
I’d argue that is way more sophisticated than Trump’s level of humor.
I would be honored to see the results.
I don’t know how to use Photoshop, so this is the best I can do.
If anyone else would like to try, here is the image that I used.
I would use: No dude ever matures beyond 13. But we’re really good at faking it. (That’s what she said.)
