And me
Cringe
This morning Trump tries, sort of, to pay attention to the misery of the Bahamas, but he makes it about him all the same.
Thank you to Bahamian Prime Minister Hubert Minnis for your very gracious and kind words in saying that without the help of the United States and me, their would have been many more casualties. I give all credit to FEMA, the U.S. Coast Guard, & the brave people of the Bahamas.
Oh lord. That fatal “and me.” What’s that even doing there?
Why does he make it about kind words at all? Why does he lead with thanking the PM for kind words instead of with the tragedy of what happened to the Bahamas? Why doesn’t he make it about our sympathy for them instead of their flattery of him? How can he be so stupid-egomaniacal that he can’t even focus on an island literally flattened by a hurricane instead of on compliments to Majestic Him?
I wish I could walk slowly and deliberately into the Oval Office and empty a bucket of puke over his head.
It apparently disturbed you enough that you didn’t comment on “their would have been many…”
Don’t hold back, Ophelia. Tell us what you really think.
I second iknklast’s proposal :)
Oh yeah. Typos and misspellings are as nothing in comparison. Anybody can make a typo, it can be distraction rather than illiteracy even though in his case it’s probably both.
What does make me laugh-snarl though is the random large number of ……………. at the end of run-on tweets, AND the fact that he still hasn’t noticed that the move to 280 characters has made run-on tweets largely pointless and that people do them a lot less. He’ll do the …………………. thing when he has 2 words left to say, instead of just ending the first one early and then doing the final sentence in the second tweet. Thick as a brick.
