Good thing we didn't have Biden as president back then or we'd still be in complete lockdown.

Edit: Thanks for the awards

Didn't he also exclaim something about medical professionals asking how he knew so much, how does he understand it so well. What a lying freaking moron.

“I like this stuff. I really get it… every one of these doctors said, ‘how do you know so much about this?’ Maybe I have a natural ability.”

u/venusdances 15d ago

What I imagine they actually asked was, “Where are you getting this information from?” As in, is someone telling you these stupid ideas or are you making them up from your own brain? So that if he had any self-reflection he could think about it. However, he in his infinite narcissism, took it as a compliment and that they were impressed by his “knowledge.”

That's spot on lmao

“How do you even think of stuff like this?”

“Natural ability, I guess”

"they said I seem to have an innate ability to grasp this stuff."

"we said you seem to have an inability to grasp this stuff."

Anti-intellectualism is more dangerous than covid. Saw a woman the other day out in the county wearing a shirt that said “fuck science”. Mind blowing that it’s come to this.

They may have, it is just that Trump probably has the inability to recognize sarcasm when it comes to statements that his narcissistic lizard brain thinks is a compliment.

“Stormy said it was amazing how quickly I came. Like no one else she had slept with had ever come quicker than me. She said it felt like I wasn’t even in there it was so fast. She called me her orange sexual ninja.”

I am still waiting to see if I develop natural knowledge of virology. I am doing this by osmosis. I will just absorb every virus and claim their wisdom. Im working on hep c now. Haven't learned much yet but we shall see.

Oh man there's a tweet from one of his "handlers" when he was on the apprentice about how he was so fucked up on benzos and Adderall they had to stop filming and someone had to change his diapers. This is definitely not a new development 🤣

Pretty sure that's it🤣 from the way it sounds that man hasn't been able to shit without a diaper since the mid 90's. Rich people drugs🙄

u/toofunky_tee 14d ago

Since the mid 90s. Ooh my god fucking 20 years of shitting in your pants and he did it 4 years in front of generals man he should kill himself

u/cantcomeupwithnamess 14d ago

Nah, his ego would never let him. We should lock him in a room that's covered in screens showing his failures, embarrassments, blatant lies and the aftermath on an endless loop, and leave him in there. 3 possible outcomes:

1) His ego can't handle it and we find him weeks later in full blown psychosis

2) He learns a new feeling... It's bad... It's like... Shame maybe???

3) he loses his mind and bangs his head on a screen to death.

I call it Bigot Bingo. If he gets forehead blood on 3 screens in a row you win

u/crymorenoobs 15d ago

tbh it comes off like a joke. sounds like he's making fun of himself in that moment.

u/SparserLogic 15d ago

It just seems that way to us. He genuinely sniffs his own farts.

u/labria86 15d ago

Oh man that would be weird. Who would do that? Man what a weirdo. I'm glad I don't do that only he does that but no one else does that but him and not me.

u/SoggerBean 15d ago

Right? Like I would never, ever cup my hand under my butt & then quickly bring it to my nose to deeply inhale the hot burning scent of my own gas. I mean, yuck, right?

u/crymorenoobs 15d ago

yeah it's a really good thing that you and i dont do that all the time, like, ALL the time, cuz that would be super weird which is why we don't do it

u/andreisimo 15d ago

I too am glad that only he smells his own farts and definitely not me or anyone here on this Reddit thread. And not only do I not smell my own farts thankfully, but I would have to be some real fucking weirdo to get any enjoyment from the smell of my own farts. Wow, good thing I am not weird and Trump is the only one.

u/FeelingInspector3114 15d ago

Everytime Trump said something completely ridiculous, the next day you'd have Sarah Huckabee or Barbie Mackenzie say "oh he was just joking lol or you misinterpreted it, you didn't actually believe him did you?" Uhh... well we're in the middle of a crisis, Barbie, should he be joking around on a daily basis?

He's just a complete jackwagon. Those are his real brainwaves.

Don't forget this gem:

“Look, having nuclear—my uncle was a great professor

and scientist and engineer, Dr. John Trump at MIT; good

genes, very good genes, OK, very smart, the Wharton

School of Finance, very good, very smart —you know, if

you’re a conservative Republican, if I were a liberal, if,

like, OK, if I ran as a liberal Democrat, they would say I’m

one of the smartest people anywhere in the world—it’s

true!—but when you’re a conservative Republican they

try—oh, do they do a number—that’s why I always start

off: Went to Wharton, was a good student, went there,

went there, did this, built a fortune—you know I have to

give my like credentials all the time, because we’re a little

disadvantaged—but you look at the nuclear deal, the

thing that really bothers me—it would have been so easy,

and it’s not as important as these lives are (nuclear is

powerful; my uncle explained that to me many, many

years ago, the power and that was 35 years ago; he

would explain the power of what’s going to happen and

he was right—who would have thought?), but when you

look at what’s going on with the four prisoners—now it

used to be three, now it’s four—but when it was three and

even now, I would have said it’s all in the messenger;

fellas, and it is fellas because, you know, they don’t, they

haven’t figured that the women are smarter right now

than the men, so, you know, it’s gonna take them about

another 150 years—but the Persians are great negotiators,

the Iranians are great negotiators, so, and they, they just

killed, they just killed us.”

“I like this stuff. I really get it… every one of these doctors said, ‘how do you know so much about this?’ Maybe I have a natural ability.”

this is the part that feels like a joke. specifically. don't get it twisted, or try to twist it like i'm saying he was joking about putting sunlight/disinfectant in his body.

1

u/Usually_Angry 15d ago

My problem with thinking it's a joke is that by many accounts he's quite charismatic and charming in person... if that's the case, then I find it hard to believe he could so often be so tone deaf and unable to make it clear he's joking.

I make too many jokes, but rarely do people think I'm serious when I'm joking and if they do I can sense that and then make it clear that it was a joke. I just think if he's really the personality they say he is, then we wouldn't be able to have this many misunderstood jokes

u/crymorenoobs 15d ago

it's actually super easy to explain. people stop thinking clearly when they hear the name "Trump". I've been painted as a Trumper by multiple people here already based on what I said. most people are idiots who wouldn't get a joke if it knocked on their front door. now add politics. also, stop comparing you goofing off with your friends to standing at a podium making a monologue.

u/Usually_Angry 15d ago

I have defended several trump policies even though I hate him.

The guy has been talking to crowds his whole life. Speaking to people in high stakes situations is something he considers to be one of his best attributes... he even co-wrote a book about it.

u/thewafflestompa 15d ago

Trump is not capable of making fun of himself.

u/BlackMoonSky 15d ago

I specifically remember him saying something like "could you imagine if I drank? What a mess I'd be"?

That was genuinely funny and self deprecating. But yeah it's a rarity.

u/thewafflestompa 15d ago

Sounds more like a jab at his brother who died from alcoholism.

u/Beardedwonder9 15d ago

Keep dehumanizing someone that makes you feel emotions. It’s a perfectly unhealthy way of dealing with your own issues.

16

u/thewafflestompa 15d ago

He has NPD. I'm not blaming him necessarily. But I truly think he is incapable of certain things; self deprecation being one. But you go on and do you. Thanks for your advice, I will keep on speaking my mind about whatever I feel like. 👍

u/Beardedwonder9 15d ago

Granted, but just because you’re a narcissist does not mean you can’t be self aware or find humor in the things you do. The guy has lived a life that most dream of. On his worst day, he was never a “loser.”(which he is very proud of) I don’t like him, but to be so wound around the axle about someone and to dehumanize them to place all your negative emotion on them is unhealthy. Here is a link of him talking shit of himself and his whitehouse. Read the full thing. I’ll never say he isn’t an asshole. You(the general you) don’t get to any position of that magnitude by being a good person.

u/thewafflestompa 15d ago

He is most definitely a loser. He lost the White House. That, by definition, makes him a loser. Him recognizing that fact is a horse of a different color.

And Idk about you, but I do not dream about living a life devoid of some semblance of awareness of myself and those around me all in the name of winning or some shit. Money ≠ "The Dream Life". Sure it can help, but I doubt many sane people are thinking "fuck, I wish I was Donald Trump".

-2

u/Beardedwonder9 15d ago

He became president of the nation... He has numerous properties and a large family. He’s avoided jail time on so many occasions the guy is made of Teflon. He doesn’t have a bad life by any means. Other than emotional responses, by any metric he has more than the ideal life.

I don’t idolize him by any means, but if I had the opportunity to snap my fingers and swap places with the guy(other than age), I’d do it.

To say you would turn down his wealth and that kind of ability just because people dislike the person(myself included) is simply folly.

Would you turn into him if you took his life over? I’m not saying I want to turn into him. I would trade lives though.

Edit: I believe the quote was “if she wasn’t my daughter”

After four years Trump successfully handed Democrats the House, Senate and the Presidency. The Orange idiot finally did it. He made America great again.

u/Beardedwonder9 15d ago

Lol, yeah, it should have been pretty easy to beat old Joe. He made the wrong enemies out of the media, and they made him look ridiculous for four years straight. Had Joe pissed them off nearly as bad everyone would already be calling for his head. They are the same person.

I’m really fascinated by you people that believe this. There are 2 choices- either he has the brains of a man-child, or he is just constantly trolling everyone. Either way, why would you want someone like that in charge of anything?
