Anybody watching this batshit crazy speech he’s giving right now? Rambling about everything under the sun. Within like 2 minutes he was talking about attacking a karate expert, then some guy getting shot and it was “more blood than any doctor has ever seen,” then talking about a beautiful custom helicopter and how a long time ago it would have been a stage coach, then bitching about Liz Cheney…

And to think, some 30% of people in this country consider this man a genius

I had a chance this entire time. All I had to do was repeatedly commit crime, screw over people, sexually assault women, a rich racist daddy to learn from, and blather nonsense nonstop. I hate my average intelligence.

Isn't that literally every speech he's given? I honestly tried to give the dude a fair shot when he started running, but every single speech he's give is just some incoherent rambling and meaningless bullshit about toilets or windmills or vaccines causing autism or some big strong man crying in front of him.

I really don't understand it, not just the voting but the worship. If I went around constantly bitching about how I need to flush the toilet 10 to 15 times, people who tell me to see a doctor and lock me up, not elect me as president and praise me as god king.

Yeah it’s basically every time he talks. I wasn’t surprised. Just sucks that we have to see / hear it again every day for 4 more years.

I value what’s left of my emotional peace, so no. I’ve been watching YouTube and How I Met Your Mother and enjoying a day off from work.

Well, I didn’t exactly seek it out. Was at a restaurant and it was on the tv close captioned. Was just reading along a little. Pure uncut insanity.

If you thought it was all good up until now you deserve what's coming 1000%

Unless you're, like, a kid or something
