    Odd, one would think he would find kinship with other blood sucking nuisances.

    But I guess they aren’t corrupt enough for him.

      It may just be his only concrete stance period. Wishy Washy Donny aiming to be the peace candidate while threatening to execute minorities and immigrants.

    I suppose the title isn’t exactly misleading, but it certainly left me with the impression that he had another sundowning moment where he gets off on a tangent and then a tangent to that tangent, and never gets back to the original point.

    This wasn’t that. He was talking shit, obviously, but his drivel contained cogent points. It’s probably the most coherent I’ve seen him be in the last year or two. While he was speaking (and making one coherent point), he was interrupted by a mosquito, and then took a moment to mention how much he hates mosquitoes. Then, and this is the important bit, he went back to his original point. Everybody does this. Usually, it’s nothing more than just waving your hand around in front of your face and saying: “fucking mosquitoes!”, but it’s the same general principle nonetheless.

    Contrast this with his whole shark / boat / battery scenario. Or his long, rambling diatribe about how powerful “nuclear” is. This is nothing.

    There was a pile of dead mosquitos on the floor beneath where he was standing. Looking at them under a microscope they appeared to have died in agony.

    Is this why he needs JD as an intermediary to garner the “full-throated” endorsements of the adrenochrome brothers, Peter Theil and Elon Musk?
