   One thing I find fascinating about Republican voters and the mainstream media is that Trump routinely says things like this and -- well, you may not have heard, but the man is running for President of the United States -- and nobody just says outright, "WHAT THE BLOODY FUCK IS WRONG WITH THIS MAN? WHAT THE FUCK IS HE TALKING ABOUT?"

     This jsut popped up in my feed because someone boosted it.

     I literally cant tell from this description if you are describing Trump or Biden, and the fact that it equally applies to both is rather telling.

     @stevesilberman One basic issue his campaign has is that he keeps going "off script"; this is a problem when the candidate is a moron. But you can't keep him on a script because he literally can't read it. TelePrompTers are useless because he doesn't read fast enough to use one. Then he gets flustered, starts to feel stupid, and tries to use all the catchphrases he was told to use. It's really pretty sad.
