It’s comforting to see his keen grasp of the most pressing issues of the day is undiminished.

"I will take electrocution every single time. Do we agree?"

I just sit back and imagine this as his answer to a very different question at a federal super-max prison death house.

“Mr. Trump, you have been convicted of 91 felonies by a jury of normal people (not your peers), and your sentence is immediate death with no due process or appeal, like you and your colleagues keep fantasizing about for shoplifters. You may choose death by electrocution, or shark. Choose and perish.”

“A good man will suffer many slings and arrows by the deranged socialist communists and fake news media but his spirit shall be free like a bigly hung stallion and shall never be broken.”

I loved the part where he was hollering about the giant water valve in Northern CA - "have you seen it?", circles his arm - "it's as big as this room!" Open that valve and the water comes pouring down from northern CA to central valley. There will be billions to be made in ag. There are farmers here, right. I got $28B from China for the farmers with my tariffs. There will be so much water the people in Beverly Hills will stop smelling bad as they will have thunderous showers not drip, drip, drip showers. And this would have been done by my administration except the communist, socialist, children mutilating then children murdering, corrupt, evil democrat Newsome would not let me.

I am not exaggerating above. It was nuttier than my summary. And the crowd applauds like yeah, why don't those fucking child mutilating Dems open that fucking valve?

Afraid of SHARKS?

If what I've heard is true, he should be afraid of SHARTS.

Does someone write these diatribes for him or do they just roll out of his own brain? And know why he thinks he's brilliant? No one has ever had these thoughts before.

Seeing the teleprompters so clearly there, it's hard not to think of the poor staffers who put the text in there and thought, well if he sticks to this...and then seeing him go off on fucking bizarre tangents...

*Okay, I don't actually have sympathy for them because they are working for him intentionally, but..

his weird tirade about electric boats just ignores over a century of hybrid electric submarines that definitely also have batteries. someone should call the Navy and warn them about the dire shark vs. electrocution predicament they've been put in (and/or been living for a 100+ years).

1. Trump's campaign plane crashing. A horrible accident.

2. Trump's campaign plane crashing but without Trump on board. An awful tragedy.

Well, I doubt the sharks would bite Trump. Professional courtesy and all.....

"So I have a choice of electrocution or a shark..."

If only it were true, sigh.
