    It’s hard to decide which line was his biggest flub, but I’d have to give it to “I have concepts of a plan.”

      “I got involved with the Taliban” simply isn’t a phase I thought I’d hear from a candidate, in any context.

      My favorite was “transgender surgeries on illegal aliens”

        It’s like someone took a bunch of Republican grievance talking points and tossed it into a big nonsensical word salad of fear mongering.

        This one is the highlight for me.
        Are “they” performing surgeries on prisoners and Trump sees them as aliens?
        Or on Illegal immigrants and he sees them as aliens?
        Or aliens like 👽🛸 aliens?

        Ah, so many possibilities.

      I’d be inclined to agree. “They’re eating the dogs” is also a good contender to anyone not into misinformation and racism

            Just have to wash them with some lemon juice and maybe rub some garlic and it’s all fine. (Source: I was an immigrant for over 20 years)

      My personal favorite was him responding to a fact check with “I saw it on TV.”

    The funniest part was when he said he was speaking and asked to be allowed to finish. Then he started delivering his statement very calmly and quietly (for Trump), and it somehow ended with him ramping up for only these words and shouting “SHE WANTS TRANSGENDER OPERATIONS FOR ILLEGAL ALIENS IN PRISON.” It’s like being at grandpa’s for dinner, he starts off pointing out the gas prices are high and one sentence later he’s talking about Kamala’s communist dictatorship that she modeled after Maoist China.

    It’s also funny how him acting normal included accusing democrats of performing abortions at 8 months and also murdering babies shortly after they’re born.

    What’s scary is there are a ton of people who think he was coherent through the whole thing and deserves their vote still.

      I’ve had to cite this story too damn many times.

      After the pussy grabber tape came out, a Conservative woman went on The View TV show to defend Donnie. One of the other panelists kept saying ‘pussy’ over and over. The Conservative woman finally had enough and demanded that the other lady stop using that offensive term.

      They’ll fly the ‘POW/MIA’ flag and still vote for the guy who likes soldeirs who didn’t get captured.

    *puts on nerd glasses*

    Like feeding a mogwai after midnight.

    Then like sticking a sun lamp in front of the cocoon and putting it on strobe the minute the gremlin comes out.

    Knowing that Banksy is working on his next masterpiece is one thing; seeing that masterpiece revealed for all and sundry is yet another.
