Trump thinks people are walking around without legs.

“Can’t think of something smart to say. Quick! Look directly at the sun!”

Before I begin, I want to say that I don’t know enough about policy to say whether everything Trump has done is good or bad, though if his popularity is any indication, it’s pretty bad. The one thing I do know is that he’s a moron and a terrible public speaker who says stupid things constantly, which brings us to this glorious quote:

I said, “What’s left?” But they’re tough and they want to fight and they’re calling. They’re saying, “How do we make a deal?” I said, “You’re being a little bit late.” And we want to fight now more than they do. We’ve had 47 years, depending on the way you count it, but 47 years of horror with this group. And you know when you see somebody walking down the street without their legs, without the arms, whose faces [were] so badly affected and hurt. It mostly came from — 95% [the late Iranian Maj. Gen. Qassem] Soleimani and Iran. And other presidents lived with it. I didn’t live with it. And so our people are doing a great job. Again, the greatest military anyone’s seen. Thank you.

This is a sitting president of the United States of America. And sure, a lot of states in the country have an abysmal adult reading level, so you really could say it’s par for the course. We are a nation of many, many dumbasses. Case in point, just the grammar alone in that incoherent screed is troubling (the quote in red isn’t even a complete thought), but what we really have to be concerned about is that the guy in charge of the military and the economy thinks people can walk without legs.

And just so we’re perfectly clear, we are far beyond the point where one can excuse this as a teleprompter issue (and they’ve tried this) or Trump being cryptic or sarcastic (tried that too, numerous times, to no avail). The only people who believe that horse shit are precisely the people whose IQs match up with Trump’s. We’re talking double digits. You can support a president and still admit that sometimes they aren’t the brightest crayon in the box. Then again, maybe it was easier when it was George W. “They misunderestimated me” Bush, because Trump makes him look like a genius.

One of my favorite hobbies from the old internet was making fun of dumb celebrities (I wonder what Kanye is up to). I do not, nor did I ever, care whether or not Trump decided to enter the field of politics, I still want to point out that potentially the most talked-about human being in the modern world couldn’t think his way out of a wet paper bag with a map. It’s free content, and when the world chuckled and guffawed at the foibles of the aforementioned ‘Dubya’, no one accused them of ‘Bush Derangement Syndrome’ because even Bush supporters weren’t a bunch of whining pansies. Remember when Trump said Biden spent millions of taxpayer dollars to create ‘transgender mice’? They were actually ‘transgenic’ mice, but who cares? If we weren’t meant to spew braindead drivel, would God have even given us mouths? I’ve got a million of ’em. This isn’t about his lies or his insensitive remarks, of which there are a million more, this is about Donald Trump being a stupid, stupid old man who’s had plenty of experience in the subject. He wasn’t smart when he was young either. Look it up. Learning is fun.

Now will I be talking about Trump a lot on this site? That depends, will he still be simultaneously the dumbest and most vocal celebrity on the planet? Because if so, chances are looking decent. I won’t promise anything, but since I started writing this, he’s probably said something with which I could start a whole new article.

In the meantime, beware of the legless walkers.
