Is Trump confused?

That’s probably because most artists are liberals and Democrats. This gets reversed for country music, however.

They’d be begging you to take him back within six months.

The Ransom of Orange Chief.

LOL. Really.

Damn you, not while I’m eating! :laughing:

I am so stealing this if (I hope) the occasion arises.

“If people want to take advantage of our country, they have to pay to take advantage of our country”

“That’s the laugh of a crazy person, I will tell you. She’s crazy. She’s crazy. She doesn’t laugh anymore. It’s smart, but someday it’s going to come out.”

“The head of the prime minister of Hungary, tough man, strong man, somebody always I got along with, I get along with the strong ones, I do not get along with the weak ones”

“We will bring back our suppai tent”

“I did the insulin and I remember when I did it, I said I hope I’m elected because someone is going to get a lot of credit for doing what I got done”

“You know what net zero, they have no idea what it means, by the way. Ask her what it means. We are going to go to a net zero policy. What does that mean? Uh, I have no idea.”

“The whole city is burning down! The whole thing, it looked like World War II. Speaking of World War III, I will keep you out of World War III.”

“Did everybody the other night see Elon and me? It was great. That was one of the most successful shows ever. He knows the opposing has destroyed our county and will destroy our country” (the event was audio-only)

“She’s one of these complainers, like a critic. I remember growing up, I would see plays on Broadway and go to other things and you’d have critics, they criticized. They were critical, critical. But they never did it themselves”

“This is talking about a thing called the economy. So we are doing this as an intellectual speech. You are all intellectuals today. Today we’re doing it. And we’re doing it right now”

“Now they are putting her on the covers of Time Magazine with an artist sketch. They don’t use a picture. They don’t use a picture, they use an artist sketch. I want to use that artist. I want to find that artist, I like him very much”

Not sure the artist could do him justice. s/

Thanks @Smapti for posting these snippets. I don’t often Trump but when I do, I prefer to microdose.

Actually, I quite like the idea that we are all intellectuals now. I am going to do me some intellectualling today! I am intellectualling right now! It’s like Les Deux Magots round here I tell you.

“100% of the net job creation in the last year has gone to migrants In fact I’ve heard substantially more and actually beyond that number 100%. It’s a much higher number than that but the government has not caught up with that yet”

“I’m a big fan of electricity, if we’re going to go with the uh, AI, we need twice the amount of electricity sluh, supplied for everything”

“We will bring back supply chains to stop supply chain costly disruptions. We have tremendous disruptions. I have it all the time but I think you do, too. We order things and when will it get here? They say there is a supply chain disruption and you end up getting things three month late. I will say that very often we have problems with supply chains where I am waiting for things for weeks and weeks. By the way, whatever happened? Supply chain, sir, it is not coming in. It is a terrible thing.”

“Elon endorsed me strongly, the most powerful endorsement, said it three or four times the other night during our little chat. A chat that was very well listened to and attended, we know that, right? Broke every single record I think in history.”

“$750 million and more, we’re not giving you any. You are delinquent. You are delinquent in what you’ve done. And you’re not getting a sir, please, please, can we talk?

“You can ask a man on the street. I saw it on one of the shows today. They asked a man on the street, what is the last name of Kamala? Nobody knew.”

Something about Hillary Clinton’s emails, I don’t even know anymore

Is he just reading notes out of a binder?

Objection! Assumes facts not in evidence.

Specifically, that Trump can read.

Reading, but it didn’t seem to me to be notes. It seemed to be a script. And he sounded like a fourth-grader reading aloud from a book. None of his normal animation, no “Nobody’s ever seens …” and similar. Just a rote reading of a script.

It was when he went off-script and ad-libbed that the regular Trump appeared. There were the “Nobody’s ever seens …” and similar. At one point, some supporters off to his left cheered a remark, and the script was forgotten for the next three or four minutes, while he did his usual rambling.

Picto-reading?

Good God, he thinks supply chains are literal, actual chains, doesn’t he?

A man, an ask, a banal: Kamala

(Eh, we should workshop this. :wink: )

“You know what a supply chain is, right? It’s the chain I beat you with until I get my gorram supplies!”

So as not to derail this thread with an excess of silliness, I moved my reply here:
