1. Person, woman, man camera, TV wouldn't even have been the words
in the actual test. The test contains unrelated words to make it a little harder to remember them. Trump made up that list to describe the test because he could easily remember them (camera and tv were included, no doubt, because he thinks about cameras and tv all the time). The words in one version of the test are face, velvet, church, daisy, red; and I'm wondering whether he was really able to remember that list.
I see what you did there, though. ![]() |

2. That was my thought, the things he loves and the things he loves to harass and smear for attention

7. You're too young!
I was little, but I know I thought it was cool, and the theme song was EPIC-
The Blues Brother did it the first film. |

8. No, I just wasn't interested in cowboy shows.

9. Radio! When
we conjured up the scenes in our devious little minds? During the school year I started listening as I was doing the dishes after coming home from school. First I had to listen to the end of the soap "Young Widder Brown". Then "Straight Arrow" came on.
I was born in January 1941 but I had nothing to do with the country going to war. |

5. Rowdy Yates - trailhand
en.wikipedia.org › wiki › Rawhide_(TV_series, January 1959 through January 1966).
Rowdy Yates (Clint Eastwood) was young and at times impetuous in the earliest episodes, Rawhide theme song sung at Bob's Country Bunker by "Joliet" Jake and Elwood Blues in their 1980 movie "The Blues Brothers". |
