If I hear his droning groggly voice going off about some fake shit, I usually snap and tell whoever to shut that shit off. It’s unbearable. The guy sounds how I imagine anyone would after a 40+ years of Quarter Pounders and Diet Coke, he’s probably way over his fair share in carbon emissions from his diet alone.
I thought I could tolerate reading quotes of him but it’s a mess every time. Whatever schools he attended failed him greatly.
I feel like I'm being mansplained to by the stupidest man in existence. Which works since apparently Trump's executive order makes me a woman now.
No, it makes you non-binary. We're neither male nor female at conception.
This really is the perfect way to put it, and I feel like it even comes from a similar place of "I'm better than you so I know better than you" smarmyness.
And it’s even worse when he reads from the autocue. It’s like he talks himself to sleep, he loses energy after speaking more than 2 bigly words in a row. That’s probably why he always interjects himself with some dumb catchphrase to wake himself up.
LALALALALA!! I know I have to listen to journalist people summarize the shit he's done because it's the reality we need to oppose. But nobody who isn't paid for it should have to listen to that mosquito whine.
