Donald Trump told journalists that he believed he could beat George Washington and Abraham Lincoln in an election.

"I think it would be hard if George Washington came back from the dead and he chose Abraham Lincoln as his vice-president, I think it would have been very hard for them to beat me," Trump told Washington Post journalists Philip Rucker and Carol Leonnig.

Rucker and Leonnig recounted the comment in their new book about Trump, "I Alone Can Fix It," according to a review by The Guardian.

Lincoln and Washington are often ranked by historians as the two greatest presidents in US history.

OMG is there no end to his ego!!!

[no_hypocrisy]

1. Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuude! You couldn't even beat Joe Biden!

Now everyone knows for certain you're making up this shit as you go along.

[Cracklin Charlie]

4. And Joe was asleep in his basement!!

[PatSeg]

14. Sometimes, it sounds like

he is trying to convince himself more than everyone else. Terribly insecure, Trump spent a lifetime trying to shut out all the voices that told him what an ignorant loser he was. On some level, he knows it is true, so he just talks louder making more outrageous claims.

[lastlib]

35. Or Hillary Clinton!

He only got in with help from Russia and the Relic of Slavery College.

What a fucked-up mind! Every time he spouts off his braggadocio, I think about that old cartoon with the plumber holding a plunger, looking at the toilet, and saying, "Aw, man, this shit ain't gonna go!"

[Walleye]

2. Remember when he said he would rush unarmed into a school with an active shooter? 🤪

[captain queeg]

6. I remember that. I was in another forum recently and a poster

Brought that up to show how brave TFG was. It’s incredible that his fans take his insane ramblings a the truth. The are completely divorced from reality. In a sane world TFG would be sedated in a rubber room slobbering on himself and no one would listen or care what he had to say.

[monkeyman1]

47. that's why he is -" DRAFT DODGER & MR. CHICKEN SHIT BONE SPURS" !

[NEOBuckeye]

3. Brain Rot

TFG is a zombie

[Auggie]

8. Not IMO. Crap like this keeps him in the news, which is just what he wants. (n/t)

[sop]

5. No doubt Russian Empress Catherine the Great (1762-1796) would have helped him win.

44. Good one...

[bucolic_frolic]

7. Sundown, better take care

Delusions, poor judgment, insane narcissism. Can't stop the clock!

[stopdiggin]

9. more incoherent rot

I'm not sure if this serves any purpose - other that dishing up a steady diet of just how crazy this f*cker really was ... On the other hand - is anybody listening?

[turbinetree]

10. Did any of these journalist say BS to his face, that to me is the problem, no one calls it out

to his worthless face...

[Shermann]

11. Washington was the only U.S. president never to be affiliated with a political party

That would render Trump's hyper-partisan smears completely ineffective. Bring it!

[bucolic_frolic]

12. Anyone recall Ferdinand Marcos shadow-boxing from his hotel suite

to show how fit and ready he was for a comeback?

[lark]

13. I don't think he believes that for one minute - he just LOVES to praise himself.

Putin has also paid/encouraged him to say horribly stupid deluded stuff to hurt America and raise up the worldwide right wing (nazi) movement of which he's a part. Putin is the leader of the plot and it's sadly going well for him, right wing authoritarianism is spreading over the world very fast.

[Historic NY]

15. ShitForbrains,2 things these two Presidents have that SFB doesn't have is they served their country

they didn't pick it clean. And they both put down wars on our soil, one to create a country and the other to try to hold it together under an insurrection.

[JohnnyRingo]

16. I believe it. Really I do.

Once Fox News, the GOP, and AM radio got done with the founders, they'd be forever labeled Commie America hating self interested hicks that had no idea how to run a business, let alone a country. The MAGAs would rally against them en mass with Trump nicknames like "Stinkin' Lincoln" and "Little Georgie Porgie"..

17. Dearest Martha,

#RevolutionaryWarAirportStories
Dearest Martha,
As we await boarding at Dulles I have found one of my soldiers who likes to be called "THE DONALD" has contracted the bone spur and has decided to fly standby. I am most certain we will not see him in battle.
All my love, George

18. Makes sense to me. Wasn't Washington a DemmyCrat?

Now Lincoln was a Republican. That would be harder for him to win against.


But then again, as pointed out above, he couldn't even beat Joe who was asleep in his basement during the campaign.

[dweller]

20. He would just shoot Lincoln

on 5th Avenue

✌🏻

[Gore1FL]

19. Biden beat him handily. Ergo, by Trump's words, Biden is more popular than Washington and Lincoln.

Or am I missing something?

[Bayard]

21. This from the man

Who ranks only above Buchanan in the presidential rankings race to the bottom.

[Stuart G]

22. It is very simple:.....4 more words:..........TRUMP IS TOTALLY NUTS!!!!

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

23. He's high from sniffing his own farts.

[Saoirse9]

24. Not ego IMHO

But a bottomless pit of raging insecurity.

He knows he's a piece of shit.

[Bengus81]

25. Keep rambling Trump, it always shows your true insanity...........

[Justice matters.]

26. Looks like the start of the 'insanity/dementia card' strategy just in case...

because at this point, indictments for tax/bank/insurance frauds may show up before the end of year?

Lock it up.

[LiberalFighter]

27. He better hope Washington never comes back from the dead.

He would order someone to face a firing squad.

[oldsoftie]

28. Not news. Trump thinks he could beat Mike Tyson.

He's a very good athlete remember; many people say one of the best.

[Blue Owl]

29. tRump wonders why George Washington didn't hold more rallies at the airports

[Roy Rolling]

30. Sure...

But I’ll bet George Washington would beat 45ii in a round of golf.

After all, Washington admitted chopping down the cherry tree, 45ii wants to rebrand all cherry trees “evil Antifa trees” in live Fox News interviews.

[samsingh]

31. i bet trump can breathe underwater.

[twodogsbarking]

32. I hope he takes the bet.

[DavidDvorkin]

33. I bet he thinks he's taller than both of those men, too.

[Evolve Dammit]

34. I'd like to think Washington would have shot his sorry orange ass in a duel, or Lincoln would bare

knuckle his pudgy face into pulp. Is that wrong??

[TeamProg]

36. Has he seen his ratings? Both George and Abe could beat

The Donald 's ratings if they hosted The Apprentice !!

[COL Mustard]

37. Either Of Them Would Have Too Much Dignity And Class

To host a TV semi-reality show.

[TeamProg]

38. It's a joke, see? It's the idea being that only TFG would care enough to be irritated

[Xipe Totec]

39. He should challenge Jesus Christ to see who would be a better martyr. nt

[rickyhall]

40. Lincoln could beat the shit out of him, then he'd be nothing but orange hair and skin.

[C Moon]

41. Why is this "top news" ?

[peppertree]

43. Well, we needed a good laugh

I did, anyway (and boy, I certainly got it).

[PoliticAverse]

46. Because T-name clicks. n/t

[ArizonaLib]

42. Martha Washington could kick his one handed

The verb 'trump' is an oxymoron.

[PoliticAverse]

45. Zombie Reagan would beat him. n/t

[YoshidaYui]

48. Just

Go fuck yourself Trump with a ball peen hammer.

[Permanut]

49. And beat Bruce Lee with one hand tied behind his back..

and beat Chuck Norris at the same time.

He's faster than a speeding bullet;
more powerful than a locomotive;
and he could leap tall buildings with a single bound, I tell ya.

[Aussie105]

50. Why even give this story oxygen?

Ramblings of an insane, addled brain.

[Omaha Steve]

51. After a review by forum hosts....LOCKING
