I can't understand how stupid someone needs to be to listen to this drivel and think "Wow, this guy is a leader! Not just any leader either, the only leader for me!".
The crazy thing is that you don't need to cherry pick quotes or take them out of context to make him look like an idiot.
Listen to pretty much any interview or speech and he says something that is clearly idiotic, evil, or a blatant lie. Most likely all three... Repeatedly.
I get that Fox News is a hell of a drug, but just hearing this dipshit speak should shatter the illusion. The unwavering support is mind boggling.
Everything about him is like that. They claim he's strong and full of vitality too. All you have to do is watch him walking, or drinking water, and you can clearly see that he's a weakling.
At least the hardcore Christians seem to see him more as a vessel or tool. God's tool doesn't have to be perfect and in typical Bible reverse 4D backwards logic, being imperfect even shows how much of a chosen one he is. I forgot the name, but there's actually a precedent in the Bible itself.
So they acknowledge that he is the antithesis to anything they claim to believe in, but they also think that he somehow will bring God's will or something.
He fits every description of the antichrist given in the Bible. They've warned about the antichrist for 2000 years, and then when he finally shows up they worship him. It's wack, yo!
You see, leaders don't like need to know the specific how to. They like need to know the business, you know. Art of the deal!
Maybe the result of US education system
CHRISTIAN 4TH GRADE SCHOOL TEXTBOOK TRIES TO EXPLAIN ELECTRICITY
Link to the book please, I can't believe this.
I second this, it seems a bit too much on the nose to be real.
Edit: Omg, it's real.
The reviews are hilarious
Fourth grade textbook published by Bob Jones University, and highlighted in a ScienceBlogs post by PZ Myers
I have a high degree of confidence this is real. Looks like the hard work of Bob Jones University Press.

This Artikel about it is really funny

People have most certainly felt electricity.
Mistaking it for being touched by the hand of god, when they were trying to remove the bread from the toaster with a fork.
Also thunder and lightning really ought to count as seeing and hearing electricity.
Hell, seeing anything at all may technically count, because electromagnetic waves.
Is that really from a book that used to teach children? Holy fuckin hell. No wonder America got shittier every day.
I wonder whether the kids being taught by that book ever zapped each other with static
IT'S LIKE MAGIC!
Then they probably got punished for practicing witchcraft and dark arts.
BRING IT FORTH
There's something I don't get about the world when someone like Trump isn't a universal laughing stock.
Sadly, that idiotic oaf is still probably smarter than 25% of the country.
he is starting to sounds more and more like mashing the autocorrect prediction button. Which has always reminded me of how my great grandma spoke before she went non-verbal due to her dementia

The dumb thing is, I can kinda understand what the speech writer wanted to say and autoprompted to him. But his fried mind couldn't understand it and because he's so vain he won't wear glasses even though he needs them so he can't even read the autoprompter half the time.
God, I can't make it through the whole thing. Listening to him blathering on and on causes me actual physical discomfort.
I sincerely don't get how anyone listens to his rambling tripe and is like, "This guy totally gets it!"
I know this is hard to fathom but its because those people are more stupid than he is.
Donald would probably try to fight a windmill thinking it was a giant.
Don(ald) Quixote?

In which states are the most Trump voters? Ignorance is the capital of the right wing policy and religion their tool.
How does a mind that has no thread at all still spew words?
Edit: right, autoprompt, makes sense.
Jellyfishes also can live an moving without brain
‘You know we have a world, right?’ is what got me. I could barely finish reading past that point.
Truly a modern Don Quixote for our age.
iirc Trump hates windmills because there was a windfarm created near his golf course.
I think someone told him once that if he ever stopped yapping he would implode
This seems even less hinged than usual, is it real?
Media isn't reporting his obvious dementia. They call the nonsense he spouts "rambling speeches."
Some other recent examples:
“We can’t have an election in the middle of a political season. We just had Super Tuesday. And we had a Tuesday after Tuesday already.”
"Gang boong. This is me. I hear bing.”
" I could tell you about aircraft carriers, where they use electric catapults. They couldn’t go to the steam, which works better for about 1/100th the price, you know? The electric catapult, you know that story? I could tell you about the elevators on a tremendous carrier, the Gerald Ford, and they decided not to use hydraulic like the John Deere tractor, they decided to use magnets, ‘we’re gonna use magnets!’ to lift up the elevators with seven planes.”

And 40 something% of the population will vote for him.
Imagine how bad you'd have to be to lose to this braniac
I don't know if he has really said that or not. It saus long about the man.
Not exactly, there's missing context between each sentence. I hate him as much as the next person but the quote is inaccurate: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ec9P3C1OXqE
