Trump rambles about "weaving" during an insane speech - he's losing it



Spiro’s Ghost
Oh. My. God.

He’s *SO* insane.

Republican Voters Against Trump
Trump: “I do the weave. Do you know what the weave is? I’ll talk about 9 different things, and they all come back brilliantly together. And friends of mine that are like English professors say, ‘It’s the most brilliant thing I’ve ever seen, but the fake news say, ‘He rambled.’”

Such a creation he would be making...if only he remembered to come back to even one of those threads he leaves hanging. He clearly has mistaken "throwing things at the wall" for "weaving." I wonder which little pointed head came up with this as his explanation.

The story must have come from the seamstress who makes his custom hand made $2,000.00 Italian suits.



Yes,... yes,... that's the ticket.

Instead he's making up shit excuses about why he talks a lot of gibberish and nonsense.

Wouldn't surprise me if he sports a weave Monday, saying it's what he meant but the media distorted his comments.

. . .relationship that could be characterized as a friendship. It's all transactional for him. He has said he likes "surrounding himself" with himself with less successful people who make him feel powerful (can't find the quote, but something along those lines). When he was president he threw himself a pity party, describing how he had lost all his "friends" because everyone was so deferential and formal with him.

The notion of Trump paling around with "friends of mine that are like English professors" is even more unbelievable than the notion that such a person would proclaim his "weaving" brilliant.

THE PRESIDENT: And, by the way, NIH, what they’ve done — I spent time over there — and I like this stuff.

You know, my uncle was a great person. He was at MIT. He taught at MIT for, I think, like a record number of years. He was a great super genius. Dr. John Trump.

I like this stuff. I really get it. People are surprised that I understand it. Every one of these doctors said, “How do you know so much about this?” Maybe I have a natural ability. Maybe I should have done that instead of running for President.

It is even less likely, if he did, that they would find his speech pattern brilliant.
