  2. I normally brush these things off, but he has gotten MUCH worse over the last couple months

  3. That stupid ball cap and jacket with the huge shoulder pads. I just hope it ends soon.

  4. He says he “goes to Gettysburg.” Lol no. He’d be bored out of his (tiny) mind here. We have two McDonald’s, but that would be the extent of the appeal to him.

  5. Robert E Lee was also never quoted as saying “never fight uphill me boys”

    I think Trump might be thinking of Mr. Krabs?

  6. Laugh all you want, but just remember that to his congregation he sounds like a professor. He’s living up to Maga expectations for sure.

  7. Never fight up a hill mee boy’s never fight up a hill.

    Robert E Lee~

  8. “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 so 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, this is horrible.”

  10. “Kids, this is why you are supposed to read the assigned chapters from your textbook before you take the quiz or present your oral report to the class.”

  11. I read this listening to Rap Snitches Knishes by MF DOOM. It’s nice to see people shitting all over this bloviating circus freak.

  12. Remember when presidents would visit schools to read to children? I bet Donnie couldn’t make it past page 1 of Yurtle the Turtle.

  13. I think it was an attempt to rally a violent revolt. I heard dog whistles:

    I need you to be on the offensive and not fight an uphill battle for me. I need you to take immediate action.

    I’m just glad – if I’m correct – that the message was terribly communicated.

  14. Mentally unfit to do anything, including defending himself.

  15. Centering Trump, even by laughing at him, benefits Trump.

  16. He attended a military academy for unruly boys and here’s what he knows about Gettysburg.

  17. Shit. I know shit’s bad right now with all that starvin’ bullshit. And the dust storms. And we runnin’ out of French Fries and burrito coverings.

  18. If you listen to any of his speeches, they are just rambling of word salads. He throws stuff out just to see if any of his snowflakes respond , should be embarrassing to his family, friends, or staff

  19. Does anybody have a transcript to what he said? I always find reading the transcripts of what Trump says to be funny.

  20. I’m not cracking up, because it’s actually not funny.

    The media will treat him as anything but the evil that he is. He’s not something as benign as a jester or a clown to laugh at. 

  22. The article wasn’t very clear so here’s the actual quote:

    >“*Gettysburg, what an unbelievable battle that was. The Battle of Gettysburg. I mean, it was so much and so interesting and so vicious and horrible and so beautiful in so many different ways, it represented such a big portion of the success of this country. Gettysburg, wow.. I go to Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, to look and to watch. And the statement of Robert E. Lee ― who’s no longer in favor, did you ever notice that? No longer in favor ― ‘Never fight uphill, me boys, never fight uphill.’ They were fighting uphill. He said, ‘Wow, that was a big mistake.’ He lost his great general, and they were fighting. ‘Never fight uphill, me boys!’ But it was too late*.”

    Edit: Missed the first part of the quote. Thank you r/Fantastic-Safety4604

  23. It’s always easy to spot the kid who didn’t read the book they’re giving a report about.

  24. You are ALL missing the point ! He fucking rambles about shit he knows nothing about at all. Why ? Because he’s totally lost as to what to say to his “ people “ that he hasn’t said a thousand times. They are bored with lock her up, everything is rigged, they are all against me, I’m doing this for you, blah blah blah. He knows as much about policy as he does about the Civil War, which is 0. He can’t talk about policy because he has a 73 IQ. He’s just a stupid person, surrounded by more stupid people. He understands nothing,creates nothing, believes in nothing. So you get whatever idiotic fucking rambling bs falls out of his face. I can’t even tell you how far on the wrong side of history he and his people will be 20 years from now.

  25. He made it up? I’m shocked!! Next you’ll tell me Stonewall Jackson never said “soldiers come up to me with tears in their eyes, big strong men who never cry, and they say ‘sir, you have the best cavalry ever, it’s so bigly, how do you do it?’ “

  26. This guy is such an embarrassment it’s not even funny anymore. You have to be a rock bottom idiot to still be holding the torch for this evil fucking clown .

  27. Still doesn’t beat his claim that the Continental Army took over the airports during the Revolution.
