Trump Rants About Oranges While Claiming Adam Schiff And Jerry Nadler Are Laughing At Him


Trump went off on a rant where he started talking about the “oranges” of the Russia investigation and claimed that Adam Schiff and Jerry Nadler are laughing at him.

Trump said, “I will say this, look. There was no collusion, there was no of course obstruction, they were very disappointed. I don’t know what they were thinking, they all know — I guarantee you, they go into a room between Nadler, Schiff and the group, and they laugh like hell at how they’ve kept this thing going for two years. They laugh like hell. I hope that this investigation now, which is finished, it’s totally finished, no collusion, no obstruction, I hope they now go and take a look at the oranges of the investigation, the oranges, the beginnings of the investigation. You look at the origin of the investigation, where it started, how it started, who started it. Whether it’s Mccabe or Comey or a lot of them, where does it go? How high up in the White House did it go? You will all get Pulitzer Prizes, okay?”

Trump said oranges no less than three times in a single answer. At some point, it has to be universally acknowledged that the president is not all there. Donald Trump is slipping and fading fast. The oranges of the investigation is another verbal gaffe that is a sure sign that Trump mentally can’t handle even this tiny bit of the presidency that he has taken on.

The president is paranoid. He thinks Democrats are laughing at him behind his back, and he is losing his grasp basic words and communication.

The 2020 election can’t come soon enough.

1. Democrats *are* laughing at him behind his back, and also

right in front of him.

[GoCubsGo]

8. The only ones not laughing at him are his cult followers.

That being said, I think the spirochetes are running out of brain matter to consume. He's getting nuttier and nuttier by the day.

[erronis]

46. Ah yes, syphillis. Of course he has to be a walking bag of other transmittable diseases.

He'll stick his shroom-dick anywhere he can but is worried about catching something from eating real-people food.

[onit2day]

71. We have stopped laughing and are becoming very angry at all the lying

[malaise]

2. Didn't this demented orange ignoramus say that the Mueller Report

should be released because he has nothing to hide?

[NewJeffCT]

3. That was last week

or the week before.

The story has changed since - probably because Barr read him a summary of what was REALLY in the report.

[malaise]

12. Hehehehehhe

I just want him gone

[cstanleytech]

73. I want him and his lackeys in the House and Senate in prison...........for life.

[malaise]

74. They should all be in prison

but there is so much corruption that I don't see how that happens.

[Mr. Ected]

44. Question is....why hasn't the media asked that VERY obvious question?

Answer: Because they're on his side. They're not even being clever about hiding it.

[malaise]

45. +1,000

Not one of them asked him that

[LastLiberal in PalmSprings]

4. Fat Donnie thinks the Dems are laughing at him behind his back. They aren't.

They're laughing in his face.

[CatMor]

5. Wish we could get to ....

the oranges of his delusions.

[Gothmog]

6. trump has been showing signs of senility for a long time

I think that he meant origins

[DontBooVote]

9. Yes, I think so too. He was trying to say "origins" and he tried to correct and failed before

finally getting it right.

[notdarkyet]

18. Ever since I had a serious head on crash I lose my ability to think of words and to say them.

Probably what trump experiences.

[YessirAtsaFact]

30. I heard Oranges twice and then he managed to kind of say origins

It doesn't change the fact that he's getting loopier all the time.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

72. Maybe his dentures were loose and he was trying to say origins?

[PatSeg]

37. It took me a few seconds

to figure out what on earth he was trying to say. That is pretty sad.

[erronis]

47. Maybe it's something that people from Queens say. The Oranges of the Speeches.

[missingthebigdog]

56. Oranges and Peaches

You know, the book. By Darwin.

[The River]

7. Just a Bad Pronunciation

of "origins".

News Flash Donnie, most of the world is laughing at you.

[pnwmom]

43. Yeah, but he's not drunk or high, or at least we don't think so. n/t

[Bradshaw3]

10. It's your repub buddies who are laughing at you behind your back, donnie

We hear all the time abut how repub officials are too afraid of him to say what they really think.

It would be one thing if we had an evil asshole as president, or a moron, or demented, or incompetent president, but no trump and Stein voters and non-voters, you gave us all of that in one fat, mushroom-dicked POS.

[MineralMan]

11. It's a specific type of aphasia.

You could see he knew he said it wrong. He tried two more times and failed, so he switched to the word "beginnings." He seemed surprised that he couldn't say it, too, so it must be a recent thing that he just discovered when trying to say the word "origins." Something's scrambled in his brain.

He needs an MRI of his brain. There's a lesion somewhere in his speech center. It should be checked out right away. See:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paraphasia

[3catwoman3]

17. Very interesting, MM.

Thanks for posting that. I took a very quick look, and will have to go back and read it again.

[notdarkyet]

20. Yeah that's what I have, aphasia.

[BlueStater]

22. Happens to me with "soldier" and "shoulder".

But those two are a lot more similar in pronunciation than origins and oranges are.

[MineralMan]

25. Actually "oranges" and "origins" are very close.

It's just a substitution of phonemes. However, that he did it three times, seemed surprised that he couldn't say "origins" correctly after trying three times, and switched to "beginnings" indicates something weird going on. It's one thing to invert a pair of phonemes once, but the next time you will usually say it correctly. That he was unable to do so is slightly alarming. It indicates an inability to say the word, rather than just scrambling the pronunciation.

That's why I'm saying he should get a brain scan, to make sure he hasn't had a minor stroke in one of the speech centers of the brain, or that there isn't a small tumor growing there.

It could also be a TIA (transient ischemic attack). If that's the case, he should be able to say the word "origins" sometime later today.

Speech problems can be one of the early symptoms of a stroke or lesion in the brain. That should be ruled out by a CAT scan or MRI..

[erronis]

50. Maybe Vlad has no more use for donnie-boy. Time to finish the brain destruction.

Might not be a pretty picture to watch and might render executive action in the USofA somewhat compromised.

Hmmmmm.

Along with Mitch and Pence, Vlad has a perfect troika.

[Dem2theMax]

34. I have the same problem with the same two words.

I had a frozen shoulder for about a year, and every time I tried to say shoulder it ended up as soldier. Drove me nuts.

At least now I know I'm not the only one!

[missingthebigdog]

59. Perhaps

It could be some kind of brain lesion. It could also be a side effect of some kinds of medication- legal or not.

I have ADD. I do well on some stimulant medications- Ritalin and Adderrall. Both help me to focus, and both allow me to function at a level that is consistent with my abilities and capabilities. However both also affect something in my language center. Most commonly, I seem to lose access to higher vocabulary- multi syllable words and terms of art, primarily. This is annoying, but manageable. Occasionally, though, I substitute similar words, mispronounce simple words, or use words that I know are incorrect.

For awhile, I switched to non-stimulant meds to address this, but those come with their own drawbacks. Now, when I notice that this is happening, I go off of the meds for a short period of time. So far, this has been an acceptable compromise.

I share all of this to say that if, as is suspected, the orang one is using coke or speed, the language issues are part and parcel to that use.

[MineralMan]

62. Could well be.

[Ms. Toad]

60. Thanks -

there was a discussion of this a while ago, in connection to Trump, but I couldn't pull it up quickly.

[highplainsdem]

65. A lesion is a possibility, but paraphasia can also be a symptom of dementia.

[MineralMan]

66. That's true, too.

Maybe a full neurological assessment is needed. I'd add an MRI scan of the brain, in any case. His health insurance will cover it, no doubt. Even Medicare would.

[UTUSN]

13. Bwah ha HAH, I ain't laughing behind his back, am laughing in his ORANGE FACE!1

[Freethinker65]

14. Has Trump ever laughed like hell?

I think anyone laughing around him upsets him. He needs to be sure they are not laughing at him. But, even if the laughter is not about him, he still hates it, because he feels like he has been excluded from the fun.

[blugbox]

49. tRUmp NEVER laughs. Seriously think about it

You have never seen him actually laugh as an emotion.

Yes, he can do his smug smile when he makes a belittling joke about someone, or is part of something fun like SNL, but I don't think he is capable of feeling any of the emotions necessary to conjure laughter.

[BigmanPigman]

15. Remember "Bigly"? It was "Big League" but with his

odd speech it sounded like Bigly. Everyone was baffled.

[Baitball Blogger]

16. He's reached his Captain Queeg's strawberry moment?

[Kingofalldems]

39. He's getting there.

[sinkingfeeling]

19. Honey, the entire world laughs at you.

[Leith]

21. Well... okay

As long as nobody casts aspersions on his asparagus.

[Roy Rolling]

23. A Serious Medical Condition

For whatever disease may be the origin of his symptoms, he isn't capable of commanding a nuclear arsenal. Not with that brain problem.

[Politicub]

24. #citrusgate. We must get to the oranges.

What was the oranges? Is our children learning, Donald? Are they?

[Mc Mike]

26. Hi Larious. Hopefully, his dentures were slipping while his mind was,

and it came out 'orangesh.'

[Mc Mike]

27. Some politician was telling me this morning how unhinged the Dems were becoming.

I forget who, but it will come to me.

[Red Pest]

28. Oranges of the investigation

Are they navel oranges? If so, perhaps we should call in the NCIS - Navel Criminal Investigative Service? Of course, they could be Florida oranges. Those would yield some very juicy oranges, perhaps some Trump Florida properties bought from and then sold to Russians. Any Florida oranges at Mar-a-Lago? Another possibility for oranges might be Dana Rohrabacher from Orange County, California. The Russians like him and he likes the Russians.

Puns intended.

[redstatebluegirl]

29. Somebody stole his strawberries.

He looks more and more like Captain Queeg.

[BamaRefugee]

31. the correct diagnosis for trump is Ass-face-ia, not aphasia

[Auggie]

32. I believe the oranges can be found under the covfefe

[backtoblue]

33. The oranges of covfefe is smocking.

[Dem2theMax]

35. .

[11 Bravo]

36. If one ignores the stubby little finger on the nuclear trigger aspect ...

this would be really funny.

[Tanuki]

38. Today it's oranges, next week it will be strawberries.

[erronis]

52. Can you imagine if someone stole one of donnie's two scoops?

[Fritz Walter]

40. Damn those Mexican oranges!

They could have come from any one of the various Mexicos that are determined to undermine our country, and — more impotently — his glorious leadershit. Close the Borders. Imodiumly!

[demmiblue]

41. This is not normal

Link to tweet

[gratuitous]

42. Watching him say "oranges" in that clip

You see him stop a couple of times: "Oranges? No, that's not quite the word, is it?" Then he tries another tack, "the beginnings of the Mueller investigation, where it started." His poor, beleaguered brain finally conjures the word "origin," but it's a temporary victory, as his mouth goes back to saying "oranges" and his face reveals his inner dissonance at using the wrong word.

He needs to be at a memory care facility, not in the Oval Office.

[DesertRat]

48. Just wait til he tries to make fun of Pete Buttigieg. nt

[C_U_L8R]

51. Toxic Makeup Syndrome

The orange pigment has permeated that enormous bewigged sniffing spittling head-thing

[Grammy23]

53. Not his first time to garble words.

He even fouled up saying United States of America, like he had mush in his mouth. Just a little case of dry mouth. Or so they said. tRump gets messed up regularly. There is something wrong. Plain and simple.

[LonePirate]

54. If we had people devoted to the Constitution he would already be gone due to the 25A or Impeachment.

He is mentally unfit to serve and his criminal behavior should have forced his removal already.

[smirkymonkey]

55. We are laughing at you.

Behind your back and to your face. So is the rest of the world. You are a complete joke!

[world wide wally]

57. Nothing rhymes with origins

[blugbox]

63. Nothing rhymes with oranges either

[area51]

58. Hey Trump:

Orange you glad?

[DesertRat]

61. Orange you glad the investigation is over?

[demosincebirth]

64. He's starting to evolve into Capt. Queeg. "Who stole my strawberries."

[MyNameGoesHere]

67. The Oranges of Speeches.

[kentuck]

68. Only an illiterate would pronounce "origins" as "oranges"...

It casts doubt on his esteemed education.

[NastyRiffraff]

69. He's right for once!

About Democrats laughing at him, although not for the reason he stated. How can we help but laugh when an Orange Moron rants about oranges?

[Ilsa]

70. I think most people would correct themselves when

mispronouncing, switching syllables, etc. He couldn't fix it.

I suspect dementia, but he may have a lesion in his brain, too. His doctor needs to get him in for extensive testing.

[ck4829]

75. Well, this Democrat actually is laughing at him
