Donald Trump did a Town Hall meeting and loudly expressed to anyone with a functioning brain or an ounce of empathy that he was unfit to be President and is a threat to our function as a First World Country with happy and non-homicidal citizens. I added the caveat of “or an ounce of empathy” because I think it’s important that we remember that not all of Donald Trump’s supporters are stupid, some of them are just terrible people. Calling them all stupid is actually an insult to the kind hearted morons out there, like me. 

Most politicians shimmy around questions so they can land comfortably back on their talking points, this is nothing new, but Trump doesn’t even remain in the same ballpark as the subject he was asked about. He has taken to calling this “the weave” and it is his new fixation. On every podcast appearance he has made and now in this town hall he has extolled the virtues of “the weave” as if he were selling it to you like he does his Chinese bibles. If you don’t know, Trump has basically clapped back at any criticism he faces for not staying on subject by claiming that it’s all part of his master plan as the great orator of his time. Where we see a desperate and senile man giving my severe ADD diagnosis a run for its money in terms of symptoms, he purports that it’s actually a well thought out strategy to dominate the reporter/interviewer and that anyone who doesn’t see that clearly doesn’t have his communicating/negotiation power. 

Please chop my head off and set me aflame at sea. Would yall just come out and say it? You like this guy because he says all the bad stuff you wanna say at work but can’t and he hates all the same people you hate. Don’t feign like it’s any deeper than that. I swear on my late Granny’s cornbread recipe I will at least gain a modicum of respect for you if you just admit that! 

The guy proposed a 2000% tarrif on imported goods for the love of God. Every single one of you who are voting for him will spin it as “he means we should make more stuff in America!” When really he’s just trying to stoke your hatred towards the Chinese and take the focus off of the fact that what he has isn’t policy, it’s bumper sticker slogans. 

For the record, I’m all for there being a 2,000% increase on foreign goods if for nothing else than the fact that it’ll mean buying one of his stupid Bibles will cost you more than your mortgage.
