Is it just me, or does Trump look a little Low-Energy Jeb in this clip? Seriously, he sounds like Eeyore after Tigger turned him onto indica for the first time.
“And all they have to do is look very, very simply at the transcript. If you read the transcript, this was analyzed by great lawyers. This was analyzed by Gregg Jarrett, it was analyzed by Mark Levin, it was analyzed by everybody. They said this statement that I made, the whole call that I made with the president of Ukraine, was a perfect one.”
Well, never mind then! All you had to say was “Gregg Jarrett.” Don’t pile on with Mark Levin, too. No, no. Uncle! It hurts!
Cancel the hearings, everyone! Gregg Jarrett has weighed in!
Okay, so maybe it’s not necessary to point this out, but if this call was analyzed by “everybody,” why is he only mentioning Gregg Jarrett and Mark Levin? If he wants people to believe him, you’d think those names would be somewhere in the low 800s on his list.
So I actually took Trump’s advice and read the transcript today. Again. First of all, right there on the “transcript” it says it’s not a transcript.
Secondly, it very clearly reveals that Trump was trying to cajole President Zelensky into investigating the right-wing’s cuckoo “Crowdstrike” conspiracy theory as well as Trump’s potential 2020 rival Joe Biden.
That Gregg Jarrett — reliable Trump toady and author of Witch Hunt: The Story of the Greatest Mass Delusion in American Political History — finds no fault with it isn’t exactly surprising.
But the kooks and hangers-on circling Trump like a bevy of doomed Sputniks in rapidly decaying orbit are not the issue right now. I’m far more worried that Trump doesn’t have the stamina to be president.
What do you think?
Does Trump make you want to delete your brain? Of course he does! But don’t do it until you’ve read Dear F*cking Lunatic: 101 Obscenely Rude Letters to Donald Trump and its breathlessly awaited sequel Dear F*cking Moron: 101 More Letters to Donald Trump by Aldous J. Pennyfarthing. Reviewers have called these books “hysterically funny,” “cathartic,” and “laugh-out-loud” diversions from our temporary hell on Earth. Don’t delay. Click those links, yo!
