whenever he talks nonsense like this I think it's because someone on his staff tried to explain something as they would to a toddler and he was barely listening so he repeats 5% of the words that grabbed his attention and mad libs the rest.
mad libs
HUMONGOUS COCK BALLSLY
honestly not that distinguishable from his speeches
Haha..what?
I can’t believe Biden was tapped out but this guy is still talking.
Lay off the crack, grandpa.
He is damn lucky he's rich, because a poor person this stupid would have been dead a long time ago.
He says it like it is..not really tho
The stupid part is not that he said this
The stupid part is that a good percentage of a large powerful country like the United States allows and accepts a political leader like this to speak for them.
Turnip isn't the idiot
Everyone else is for listening to him and keeping him in a position of power
Except the majority doesn't want this moron. Yes, though, I do agree with your sentiment generally
The fact that anything more than a vanishingly-small minority wants him is an absolute catastrophe and an incredibly damning indictment of American society in and of itself. Trump's nonsensical babbling is literally beyond "schizophrenic homeless dude on the street corner with a 'the end is nigh' sign"-level gibberish.
Buckle up, here in Australia, every couple of years a political party has the bright idea of damming water in Australia's tropical north and pumping it across 1000km of desert to Australia's farmland regions
This dipshit is the most accurate representative conservatives could come up with. He's been re-affirmed as their most accurate representative time and time again over the last decade.
This moron is who conservatives are, and they are proud of it. Remember this when you talk to conservatives in your daily life. They are as profoundly unintelligent as they are evil.
Conservatives like him because he's racist.
That's it. It doesn't matter.to them if he doesn't know how rain works. They don't care if he couldn't tell you how hurricanes travel.
All they care about is that he hates immigrants.
That's it.
So I guess he saw a picture of the decoration in the Laurentians and thought it was an actual one?
Seems like all the competent people went to finance and justifying war think tanks, and we are left with these type of clowns for politics
We really need to mark if Trump memes are real or made up. I hadn't heard that he said this, but I can totally believe it. I just don't have time to fact check every meme to know if I should be laughing or terrified that there's a potential or former leader who believes stuff like this.
Granted, both options are valid with Trump.
Here you go. Skip to roughly 1:30 mark for this quote.
Oh, he's making a metaphor.
OK it takes a day to open the dams and for water to travel.
Wait, the faucet is as big as that wall? He's talking about an actual faucet.
I'm out.
I kept scrolling in Lemmy, saw a post in politics talking about it, but thanks. I can't say I'm surprised, but I'm amazed that people are willing to vote for someone so obviously stupid. I understand there's a certain element of anti-intellectualism, but this is gradeschool knowledge we're talking about.
For someone in BC, hearing America talk about our water like this is kind of terrifying
trump isn’t America. He doesn’t speak for most of us.
That will be believable if he doesn't win. The fact that it's cloee is absolutely nuts to an outsider.
It’s only close because of our broken electoral process that gives land more influence than citizens. He didn’t even win the popular vote for his first term.
He’s got 47% of the popular vote last election. Over 74 million Americans voted for him. That’s 74 million too much.
The fact that it's close shows that there is a problem with our voting populace.
Rarely do more than 40% of eligible voters turn out for an election. On top of that, the Electoral College - our representative voting body - can cause the popular vote to be overturned in favor of the representative vote - Al Gore in 2000, Trump in 2016 are examples. Relative to this, in order to win, Democrats have to be polling at 6 to 9% above the Republicans to be a real contender.
The day a Republican loses via Electoral College but wins the popular vote is the day this will change. Frankly, though, it's almost impossible for that to happen due to the way the EC distributes votes to the less populated states.
Fuck our rigged system and fuck this orange baboon.
The depths of his stupidity and the continual display of his complete lack of knowledge or curiosity about how anything works or ever could work makes me so irritated with his immovable, enabling moronic "base".
spoken by an essentially very large sewer
He’s a child playing pretend. Take this quote and imagine it’s from a 10 year old kid that then goes on to explain how their favorite superhero can breathe in space.
That he even has a good chance in hell of winning shows how far gone this country is.
So you're telling me:
There's a giant pipe that runs all the way from Canada to Los Angeles, with a massive valve that takes a day to turn. Its current configuration is set to dump all of that water into the Pacific. To solve the water crisis we merely need to spend a day to turn this massive valve, the size of that building behind you, the other way so that the water goes to Los Angeles instead?
Truly very stable genius stuff here.
Hes talking about the mile wide Columbia river, which meanders through Canada, Washington and Northern Oregon. It's basically on the border of Washington and Oregon. At no point does it even get close to touching California, much less LA, which is in southern California.
To do this would be one the most gigantic and intense infrastructure projects our country has ever undertaken, which would take decade's at an unimaginable cost. Not to mention the drastic shift in the ecosystem of 3 states as that river is "drained" south instead of to the ocean.
He lists this as "a big valve you just turn." Absolute moron.
He's got to be the most extreme example of Dunning-Kruger effect out there.
Thinks he's a certified genius, meanwhile all his handlers have to break down concepts for him in such simplistic terms, he ends up literally thinking injecting bleach or putting powerful UV light inside the body are the solutions to COVID, or raking a forest is an actual solution to preventing widespread wildfires.
'A Very New Shape Of Water' /s
How is he so fucking stupid?!
Is it just me being bad in English or did you other also weren't able to understand what the fuck he tried to say there?
I'd like to see Grady's take on this engineering stable genius.
I wonder if he's thinking about that diversion in Chicago that connects the great lakes to the Mississippi and thinks all rivers work that way.
