“Fucking Moron”, remains the most apt characterization of Trump.

That rambling answer he gave in response to her horrible question on regulation for “tech companies” was amazing. I would copy & paste it here but I don’t see an actual transcript.

I’ve never heard of this site, but it claims this is the [full transcript](http://www.valuewalk.com/2017/10/trump-bartiromo/?all=1).

I’m guessing this is the portion you mean:

> BARTIROMO: – see I think that’s why we’ve had a 3.1 percent GDP. Because of the regulation roll back that you did – there are some industries that are not that regulated. I’m wondering what you think about tech right now?

> Because you have these companies that are more powerful than ever before, they’ve got everything all the data on us. They’re selling the data. To the tech companies these more regulated?

> TRUMP: Well I guess some people talk about freedom and other people talk about we want to know who’s taking adds or doing whatever and I would imagine something’s going to come down along the lines of like we are doing right now. For regular – you know whether it’s commercial or not for a normal broadcast company.

> It’ll be very interesting to see. You know that’s a argument that’s happening right now. It’ll be very interesting to see what – there are two very distinct views on that. I can go – honestly I can go either way on it.

Yes, that’s the verbal diarrhea that spewed forth from the Moron in Chief’s mouth. The entire interview was complete nonsense. I am quite shocked they aired that interview. I would like to know how the Trump supporters on this board view that interview? As that Vox article said, “POTUS swings and misses at the softest softballs”. He appears to have rapidly increasing dementia.

I truly did not mean to demean Idiocracy, I was looking for the movie and the thought crossed my mind.

I appreciate the contributions to my little blurb.

I came in her eto say ‘When trump speaks’ I change the channel,  
But I like **Stranger** s answer much better.  
Not that I didn’t like some of the other answers too.
