Donald Trump Boasts Of Crowd Size After Vowing Not To Congratulate Self On Hurricane Response

“We won’t say ‘congratulations’. We don’t want to do that. We will congratulate each other when it’s all finished. But you have done terrific. And you been my friend too, for a long time.”

What Trump really wanted to say was ...


So far so good, I can't tell you how impressed I am with myself right now for my tremendously beautiful job of handling this hurricane.

If your cell phones are still working down there in Houston, feel free to tweet from your roof tops to congratulate me about my crowd size before you drown.

1. Congratulating himself for...

...what, exactly?

[Tommy_Carcetti]

3. Winning the hurricane!

Duh!

[Cracklin Charlie]

2. He disgusts me.

I can't bear for my eyes to touch his image, or my ears to hear the sound of him.

I may be losing it.

4. Read between the lines.

He said this because some advisor said don't do any congratulations now, like Bush did with Michael Brown, his FEMA director. Remember "Great job, Brownie!"?

So some advisor, remembering this told him not to say congratulations, but he accidentally began to slip, that's when he said the quote in the OP.

5. He seems so proud of the size of this disaster

Like it's a good thing.

[PA Democrat]

6. I half expected him to say, "Heckuva job Trumpie."
