Trump Spews Absolute Nonsense Before Walking Out on Reporters

...Trump’s answer starts off relatively normally, but then things then take a turn, leading into one of perhaps the most word salad answers I have heard Trump give in some time, which is a pretty high bar. Watch this and try to follow along.





...Where did you lose the plot? For me it was somewhere around “I guess statement you could say with CALL. I made a call. The call was PERFECT.”

He touches on several coherent topics and you can see thoughts forming, sort of: Ukraine’s president is a nice young man who is new to his job, Adam Schiff did a stupid parody, there are some conspiracy theories about Ukrainian involvement in the 2016 election... but then he just says “thank you very much” and stops talking.

Then he just leaves! Wanders on out. There have been presidents as malevolent as Trump before, but I think you’d be hard-pressed to find one as deeply weird and confused.

and he realized everyone in the room KNEW he was full of shit. All he could do was walk away and find a safe space to cry.

He realized he was smarter than everyone else and that they could not possibly understand his "beautiful thoughts".

...but he hadn't uttered very many words before I said to myself, "What the hell is he even saying?" Sentence fragments at best.

moaning as more and more scummy details are revealed on a daily basis of what's he is doing, instead of being presidential, he's being vindictive, hateful, dumping on so called enemies, making new enemies, and basically just covering himself w/ more crap by the day. Won't be a fire hose big enough to wash the filth off. Gross.
