1. holy fkn hell on a Triscuit

and they don't even have the sense to leave this out of their transcript

have MERCY

[dixiegrrrrl]

26. They don't have the brains to leave it out.

They are pretty good about censoring some stuff, but a lot gets by.


also could be a decision to leave it in for all to see his dimness.

2. Business Economic's wasn't his best subject at Wharton...

[StClone]

33. Is Wharton a real University? If so they sure stink.

[dixiegrrrrl]

41. Wharton is a school within University of Pennsylvania.

University of Pennsylvania has 12 schools.
Harvard is the same...one school is Harvard Law School.

Interestingly to me is most graduates will say they went to Harvard, but not mention
their school unless asked about their graduate degree, then will say Harvard Law or Economics, etc.

Trump always name drops Wharton, but there is no proof he actually got the 2 year BA degree.
Since the record is sealed no one knows.
Tho why one would hide the fact of their college degree beats me.

[StClone]

46. Thanks but I knew Wharton was real.

It's just fun to rub their nose in Trump doo-doo.

[Fortinbras Armstrong]

51. One of the least admirable traditions of the Ivy League

Is the "Gentleman's C". It is a passing grade given to members of "good families" (Hi, George W Bush) or to those whose families have donated large amounts of money to the school. I have no doubt that's how Trump get his degree from Penn -- Fred Trump bought it.

[Patterson]

3. In the transcript he tries to hand the question off to Birx.

[Gothmog]

4. K&R

[Turbineguy]

5. He knows he's bullshitting.

And he knows we know he's bullshitting. But it does not bother him.

[tclambert]

11. You think Trump has ever googled anything?

Maybe boobs. But that would be it.

[aggiesal]

29. I swear DU has members with ...

the best sense of humor

[StClone]

34. Boobs and idiots.

[brush]

48. Oh, he ogles those all the time...oh, wait...

[Submariner]

7. This is why the rubes in his base love the dummy

to them he is "dumb like me...just richer" and a regular guy.

[dixiegrrrrl]

32. That is exactly why people went for Palin.

"She thinks like I do"
"She understands us"

Real quotes.

We ignore them at our peril.

[jaxexpat]

37. It was w's highest approval category as well.

He blunders in the footsteps of blunderers.

[Fortinbras Armstrong]

52. I have been told, in as many words, by a conservative

That my graduate degree from Harvard was something to be ashamed of.

[NoRoadUntravelled]

8. They'll say it's a side effect of the hydroxychloroquine he's taking.

Or they'll blame it on Obama because he didn't leave a special per capita dictionary in the Oval Office.

[ZenDem]

9. That transcript...

...reads like Dr. Seuss for Dummies.

Can someone explain to me how his 'followers' can listen to him or read that crap and actually believe he's an intelligent human being capable of running a lemonade stand much less the United Freaking States?

[murielm99]

16. They believe it because they are just as stupid.

Or, they are stupider! They do not know what per capita means, either. Some of them may have looked it up by now. However, they will find a way to twist themselves into pretzels and convince themselves that he knew what he was talking about when he discussed "per capita."

[dixiegrrrrl]

42. Per capita and der capitol are similar to the casual ear...

His base isn't reading what he sez, they only hear the parts Fox plays to them.

[Kali]

10. ...

[FakeNoose]

12. He'll never say, "I don't know the answer"

... or even "I don't understand your question."

It's just meaningless bullsh*t twaddle coming out of mouth, and the media reports it word-for-word.

[underpants]

13. Reminds me of my wife a few weeks ago "He doesn't know what exponentially means"

[CaptYossarian]

14. His base:

-Doesn't trust intelligent people.

-Thinks only the "elites" know them thar fancy words.

-Get aroused when he shows his ignorance.

-Totally ate it up like a nest full of baby robins waiting for his vomited Ambrosia.

("Idiocracy" was supposed to be a work of fiction.)

[ms liberty]

15. Lol I commented on that in a different thread

Mind blowing, the stupidity.

[TNNurse]

17. I tried to read the link of the remarks below the post.

I got a headache almost immediately and could not continue. Do not listen when he is on the news either.

[Harker]

18. You might as well

ask the cat.

[KS Toronado]

19. Surprised he didn't ask "which State Capital are you referring to?"

[OverBurn]

20. He may very well know what "per capita" means, he's counting on most of his idiot followers don't.

[brush]

47. No.

[JDC]

21. He's a total bag of hammers

[gibraltar72]

22. Ah yes words.

24. I have a co-worker like this.

Ask him a simple question. Go ahead. He'll never give you a straight answer.
He can't. I mean, he wouldn't even if he could, but he's incapable.
He'll babble in circles for three solid minutes and any answer he gives you will still be wrong.

[panfluteman]

25. The Russians Picked Their Candidate Well!

I heard that the producers who of The Apprentice originally approached Vladimir Putin wanting to do a reality show on a Russian oligarch; Putin sent them to Donald Trump. Even way back then, Putin had his sights on the long game: First, use this reality show to cultivate an image of Donald Trump as a successful businessman in the eyes of his MAGAts to be, and then get Trump to do a run for the White House, with their cyber-backing.

30. The STUPID oozes.

[CanonRay]

31. Wharton School of Business. Right.

[Soph0571]

35. NO NO NO

The person with responsibility for the largest economy on the planet cannot be that ignorant on such a basic thing. Where are we and what have you done with planet normal?

[left-of-center2012]

36. Trump: "... there's many per capitas"

"But I call them capitols"

London
Paris
Berlin
Tokyo

38. Every time he tries to prove that he's a genius

he makes an ass of himself.

Sorry, I have not got a more eloquent response.

[Mickju]

44. How is it possible that our president is this stupid?

It’s absolutely stunning.

[RGTIndy]

45. Manhattan is the capita of New York

Believe me.

[apkhgp]

49. Just another line of bullshit

From the master of the craft. The masses have gotten lulled into accepting this from this administration. MAGA stands for Make America Gullible Again.

[Lifelong Protester]

50. What a blindingly and crass

Idiot. So full of lies.

[malthaussen]

54. Said it before, and I'll say it again:

Mr Trump is a great argument that the intelligence and competence of the chief executive of this country turns out to be, not vital to our survival, but surplus to requirements.
