you know, I have got to hand it to trump, he's really impressed me. I think we all owe him a bit of grudging respect. we constantly put him down, day after day, but here he is. not only consistently showing up, despite his decrepit appearance, but proving once again that he absolutely CAN do something even stupider than what he did the day before. this sort of exponential stupidity takes effort, ladies and gents.

The guy once stated that he doesn’t really feel his personality has changed since the first grade. This was probably one of his more honest statements.

It’s not effort or work you are seeing. It’s a child’s guile wrapped in an adult’s body.

My new brain canon is now that he somehow said the wrong "your" because that seems on brand

Keep that statement saved. You'll need it again soon.
