I couldn’t believe that he actually said that, so I had to check out the actual transcript (link at bottom). He did. There are clearly no limits on what he will say. Trump news conference at Trump National Doral, March 9 2026 _We’re knocking them out._ _We know where they all are._ _We’re knocking them out very quickly._ _We’re ahead of our initial timeline by a lot._ _I would say that we probably would not have thought after a month_ _We’d be here._ _In addition to the fact that we’ve taken out the leadership_ _Uh twice_ _And maybe three times_ _And we, as you know,_ _We want to be involved._ _We don’t want another president_ _That maybe wouldn’t be willing to do_ _What I’m willing to do_ _For the good of the world,_ _For the good of our nation_ _To be stuck with the situation in_ _Five years or_ _Ten years from now._ _So we think they should put a president in_ _Or the head of the country in_ _That’s going to be able to do something_ _Peacefully for a change._ _They’ve been doing this for 47 years,_ _Killing people for 47 years,_ _Whether it’s the barracks_ _Or even the USS Cole,_ _Where they were involved very strongly._ _They always denied it,_ _But they were very strongly involved_ _In all of the people that died_ _Through the roadside bombs_ _Died in –_ _Are right now walking around_ _With no legs,_ _No arms_ _A face that’s been so badly damaged._ _The Iranian regime has been attacking Americans_ _And spreading terror for 47 years._ _And despite these countless opportunities_ _To renounce their nuclear ambitions,_ _Which they had just a short while ago,_ _They told Mr. Witkoff_ _Who is standing right over here._ _They said_ _Uh,_ _They actually said_ _We want to keep building,_ _Essentially in a nutshell,_ _We want to continue_ _To build nuclear weapons_ _If we didn’t knock out Midnight Hammer._ _If we didn’t knock out_ _Their Iranian potential,_ _If we didn’t do that with Midnight Hammer,_ _They would have had a nuclear weapon._ _They would have used it long before._ _Now and at a minimum,_ _Israel would have been annihilated._ _It was very lucky that we had the courage_ _To do that_ _That we had the talented pilots_ _And the great equipment_ _The B-2 bombers are unbelievable._ > **[Protected: Factbase Transcripts](https://rollcall.com/factbase/trump/transcript/donald-trump-press-conference-trump-national-doral-miami-march-9-2026/)** > > There is no excerpt because this is a protected post. ---

I think you cut it off before he completed the “weave”. The weave typically takes a funny detour through the large size of Arnold Palmer’s penis, then something about deranged Joe Biden before then coming full circle. My head hurts reading that transcript. ---

Mine too. 🤯 I think Vogon poetry is better which is saying a lot. > “Vogon poetry is of course, the third worst in the universe. > > The second worst is that of the Azgoths of Kria. During a recitation by their poet master Grunthos the Flatulent of his poem “Ode to a Small Lump of Green Putty I Found in My Armpit One Midsummer Morning” four of his audience died of internal haemorrhaging and the president of the Mid-Galactic Arts Nobbling Council survived by gnawing one of his own legs off. Grunthos was reported to have been “disappointed” by the poem’s reception, and was about to embark on a reading of his 12-book epic entitled “My Favourite Bathtime Gurgles” when his own major intestine, in a desperate attempt to save humanity, leapt straight up through his neck and throttled his brain. > > The very worst poetry of all perished along with its creator, Paul Neil Milne Johnstone of Redbridge, in the destruction of the planet Earth. Vogon poetry is mild by comparison.” > > ― Douglas Adams, [The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy](https://www.goodreads.com/work/quotes/3078186) Here is an example (and, honestly, waaay better than Trump…shocker)🙂 ``` Oh freddled gruntbuggly, Thy micturations are to me, (with big yawning) As plurdled gabbleblotchits, On a lurgid bee, That mordiously hath blurted out, Its earted jurtles, grumbling Into a rancid festering confectious organ squealer. [drowned out by moaning and screaming] Now the jurpling slayjid agrocrustles, Are slurping hagrilly up the axlegrurts, And living glupules frart and stipulate, Like jowling meated liverslime, Groop, I implore thee, my foonting turlingdromes, And hooptiously drangle me, With crinkly bindlewurdles. Or else I shall rend thee in the gobberwarts with my blurglecruncheon, See if I don't! ```
