Imagine my surprise when arrogant techbro douche has glib, idiotic notions about questions far, far away from the narrow little techbro rat run he inhabits, startling even the beetle-browed cretins on Fox with his wide range of ignorance.

I love "nearly half a dozen"! What a great meaningless phrase! Did you know I have nearly half a dozen limbs?? Just incredibly a lot! Okay I'm late on this one BUT STILL, i'm almost nearly half a dozen days late!

“Many people are asking whether or not I will be doing the DEBATES? ALL AMERICANS have been clamoring for a President of extremely High Intelligence. As everyone is aware, my Poll numbers, over a "wonderful" field of Republican candidates, are extraordinary.”

Remember when he thought a dementia test measured his IQ? Now he thinks polling numbers…

Nice. So it's not the story of Donald J Trump? Enjoy and rest up.

Lol. Ok, so-called "physique". Blob might also work but I'm not about to shame the pathological liar.

Just wondering - does Trump ever say what his "policies" will be at his campaign rallies, or is it just nonstop whining about how persecuted he is?

Expand full comment

Prosecuted. It’s “how prosecuted he is”.

Ummm....isn't there like a non-zero percent chance he gets tossed in the pokey in Atlanta since he seems incapable of refraining from threatening witnesses, the Court, the prosecutor, the Governor of GA, etc. etc. Hard to make all those appointments from a GA jail I'm thinking. He'll need a body double maybe to sit in jail for him????

I would think the old school Ga Chain Gang would be perfect. Fresh Air, Sun Shine and a Sling Blade would get him ready for the annual inmate golf outing.

A body double? Do you realize how long it takes to "craft" a physique like Trump's?

Expand full comment

Remember how much he loves Central Casting. They have ALL the bodies.

You could have put "physique" in quotes, too.

Expand full comment

Lol. True. Though did he ever craft that physique? Or did he just lumber into it after his many years of eating berders?

23 raccoons in a trench coat should do the trick

Too articulate. They'd know it wasn't Trump right away.

LMAO. That's REALLY funny. They'd certainly be more intelligent than he seems to be.

Well, let's be real here. Little Debbie is the key ingredient to life.

I'm all for his court appearances cutting into his his Klan rally time. Win win for decency.

Well, he has a very well-rounded, active lifestyle. Plenty of seniors his age wish they had a busy schedule like that!

This article is beautiful. 10/10. Would read again. I will forward to everyone I know. Thanks, Evan.

You've got to pity a fella whose social calendar is so crowded by indictment hearings.

It leaves him no time at all to interact with his lawfully wedded wife.

Oh, wait.

Expand full comment

Is she even still in the country?

Expand full comment

With all due respect, who cares?

Expand full comment

Presumably Barron. Maybe.

Expand full comment

Yes, maybe. But Barron knows she's the only one with a chance of loving him too.

If Trump does show up for the debate, I wonder how the others will react? Specifically, will any of them try to suck up to him and/or his supporters by defending him, especially when Christie goes after him? Trump, of course, will respond with nothing but jeering about poll numbers.

Bonus score for:

"We will use bullet points, to make Axios feel like it is in its safe space."

Boo Hoo. This being indicted for all my crimes is soooo inconvenient! You might also mention that he can turn himself in at any time & the jail is open 24/7
