    It still blows my mind that people look up to, and even imagine this guy as a strong leader.
    The word vomit cascade works for him. Unfortunately.

      The people who fall for his bullshit are even dumber than he is. His one talent is hypnotizing stupid people with the way he talks. Which he has in common with a certain failed painter from Austria, incidentally.

        It works on me, that’s why I tell people to speed him up when the magas in their lives don’t understand what a con man he is. If you put him on 1.5x speed, that’s usually enough to break the spell.

            Any rally or remarks in full. This one isn’t bad. You can see his “weave” more clearly when you speed it up.

            I love how he’s saying that we’re giving money to feed the people in Gaza and it’s not going towards weapons. I think part of schtick is that he doesn’t believe anything, he just spouts whatever the fucks he wants. That way, there are no tells to him lying, because he isn’t really.

            The smartest thing he’s done is to get people not to check facts with other news orginazations. He lies so sincerely that if you believe him, his lies somehow make sense?

      He speaks for the weak minded. They never feel like he’s talking down to them. It would be completely impossible. He’s somehow as poorly educated as the impoverished and those who lack access to a proper education.
