MODERATORS
It's like his peanut brain is only able to process the thoughts that he likes
Yeah, that stuck out to me also. He had a flow in his mind for the conversation, and reacted to what she said inside his mind, while completely missing the totally different thing which she actually said. It was already clear that his brain works that way but it is an instructively candid example from his unscripted life.
Charming?
Yeah, the closest Trump gets to genuine charm is when he accidentally starts to resemble a goofy Saturday morning cartoon show villain, "Ah, I would have gotten away with it too if it weren't for my nincompoop henchmen! I tell you, it's impossible for supervillains like me to find reliable evildoers these days, why is no one talking about this?"
Like, he's not trying to be charming, he's trying to threateningly project power, but he's so bad at it it comes off like a joke.
Yes, it was charming, bless his heart.
The one insult more insulting than "see you next Tuesday"!
If this was an episode of Veep, it would be a bit over the top.
If this was 'The Simpsons' it would be over the top
I loved Veep, it's hilarious to me watching it now that basically any scandal on that show would be completely innocuous compared to what we have been dealing with since it ended.
That show is looking more like a documentary these days
He did something to the sandwiches.
