Seriously, I think he has a slightly lazy eye that doesn’t show up on video, but does in still shots. It is creepy and he is insane/evil. The lazy eye look just adds to his overall aesthetic.

I think he would look good with a fluffy white cat on his lap.

“Do you expect me to talk, Mr. Patel?”

“No Mister Bond. I expect you to _die_.”

I think you mean human suit. Not lizard suit. But yeah, not disparaging his looks really, but the guy is totally clueless. Send the CIA after the media and Trump opponants?

Was probably the first 3 letter agency that came to his ‘mind’. If these people weren’t totally screwing up our county, I could almost have pity on them. Almost.

That first image of Patel has him staring exactly like a hypnotized person in a cheesy '80s TV show.

I was thinking suit _for_ lizards but it was poorly worded.

Who the hell knows with that man. I just heard an interview with him this morning talking about how he’ll vote for trump and is hoping for a top position in trumps new administration.

He talks out of both sides of his mouth more than Romney and I didn’t know that was possible.

“Sen. Mitt Romney, R-Utah, said” … whatever this morning’s polling said was absolutely safe to say.

It’s the old rule: If you have to _tell_ people to trust you, they can’t trust you. See also: Pravda.
