I can't stand to hear his voice any more and I've turned off cable TV for good.

Lord God!!! This madness has to stop.

He is so weird. So his uncle was real smart & went to MIT & had 3 degrees ......like Kamala Harris does? Yes she has one in Political Science, Economics, & LAW. Then he says...because his uncle is smart.....HE has an aptitude. Uhhh sorry, no. It doesn't work like that. Someone has to tell this jealous, pathetic, marshmallow body, demented fool, that it doesn't work like that!

>You know, I have an, I had an uncle who was a great professor at MIT for many years, long, I think the longest tenure ever. Very smart, had three different degrees and you know, so I have an aptitude for things.

A few months before he died, my grandfather reminded us that he started at MIT when he was 16. Then he told us what year it was he started at MIT, except he told us three different years.

A month later he was diagnosed with Alzheimer's.

"Very smart, had three different degrees and you know, so I have an aptitude for things."

So if my uncle was a brain surgeon, I would be qualified to operate on trump's brain. If I could find it.

Sharks be like no way we the batteries first.

Do sharks dream of Trump?

It's all intentional, taken straight from the "if you can't dazzle 'em with brilliance, baffle 'em with bullshit" playbook. It's why he says shit like "It was delicious, I haven't tasted it yet." Throw enough cognitive dissonance at your followers and you can break their brains, at which point you can make them do anything you want. It's Brainwashing 101.

The dude works off a teleprompter. He sure as hell doesn't enter the text himself, but somehow repeats the same inane stories, which means he has a team behind him, supporting (likely shaping) this nonsense. Once you get people buying into crap like QAnon, you just cross the streams. Add in a little Evangelical non-questioning-of-authority, and boom, instant cult.

Talk about Psyops.

Wounds all over his thin skin! The guy can never let anything go. anything

He looks like St. Sebastian, only fatter and flabbier.

Everyone knows you inherit your aptitudes directly from uncles.

Obviously no one's ever told President Brain Genius about osmosis.

Agreed: it’s always smart when you leave the snake in. Wait, what?

Again with this stuff.

Batteries don't generate electricity; they only store it. Suppose that the Yam is correct and the sinking boat battery (I can't even bring myself to type this) is shorting out in the water 'cause it got wet--a boat battery that gets wet, what a concept--wouldn't the shark that's 10 feet away also get electrocuted?

It's sad, in a way, watching the Yam deteriorate like this in public. Also, encouraging.

If he dies because he gets electrocuted by a boat battery (still laughing) or eaten by a shark, he's dead either way, right? It's all good.

It seems as though he expects to be attacked by a shark on dry land. They never should have let him watch "Sharknado;" he thought it was a documentary.

THE LONGEST TENURE EVER SO I HAVE AN APTITUDE

Also WTF “snakes”?!?!

It will probably not surprise you to learn his uncle did *not*, in fact, have the longest tenure at MIT, although he was there a long time. And was a genius, but sadly it looks like his smarts completely avoided Fred's branch of the family.

On the plane. You use the snake to leave it in.

I think that activity is optional. Maybe you don't want to leave it in.

It the lady and the snake story. He thinks the snake is the hero.

Maybe's avatar

Perhaps the lady is a Repub politician.

JCfromNC's avatar

I wondered if that's what he was talking about.

Ta, Evan. 🎶 Baby shark, do do do do do ...

I suggest that President Biden wear a tee shirt with a HUGE Toothy Shark on it to the debate!

Carthago Delenda Est's avatar

Apropos of just about nothing. I have a tee from the Santa Monica Aquarium with a gaping shark on the back and 'Bite Me' in its mouth.

"Would a sinking electric boat cause a field of electrified water that could harm the occupants" is actually a reasonable question. I mean , I don't know.

Not clear why sharks have to grt dragged into it, though.

Maybe's avatar

I think that might depend on whether it sank in a bathtub or not.

Pexas Teat's avatar

I doubt it, but I can ask my friend who is a marine architect and designs electric boats! (spoiler: they float)

I wonder how things are going in an alternate universe!

JFC!
