Trump Gets Standing Ovation In Place With No Seats



If you watched Señor Trumpanzee’s completely unhinged speech on Pravda-TV, er, a, FOX “News” on Thursday night (Yeah, I know, why would you? Chances are you don’t drink at curb’s edge with the pigeons either), you saw something that would classify as brilliant theater if it was a scene in a remake of The Madness Of King George (Please see above clip), or, a spinoff of Woody Allen’s Bananas (see below).

For the second time in two weeks (Last week was his heinous talk with the Boy Scouts of America), our severely mentally ill Grifter-In-Chief went to West Virginia, coal country, Appalachia, and arguably his largest remaining stronghold outside of Moscow; Idaho or Russia-- take your pick.

Unfortunately, Trump’s Thursday performance was as much a slice of reality as it was a reflection of the insanity he shares with his followers. His entire being is a monument to the grotesque manifestations of his megalomania and he suckers in his willing and pliable followers right along. For those who actually physically attend his rallies, getting their brainwashing from the TeeVee just isn’t enough. They like it up close and personal. Unfortunately for many ticket holders, they couldn’t actually get in. Don The Con had given away so many free tickets to assure a capacity crowd that many ticket holders who got their tix on line were left outside in the drizzle and humidity, holding a soggy ticket. That Donnie! Such a man of the people!

One thing is for sure: According to the latest Gallup poll, West Virginia is where Señor Trumpanzee enjoys his highest approval rating. It’s currently 25% above his disapproval rating. No doubt, that’s why his handlers send him there. It’s good for his warped ego, not to mention that he’s probably more than a little intrigued by stories that men have sex with their daughters in good old West Virginia.

and recited that scene word perfect

I still know it almost word for word

Still think that movie has more laffs than anything else he's done

The scene in Central Park where louise lasser breaks up with him is insane! Almost asphyxiated with laughter 1st viewing

And the speech he gives as president of San Marcos to a silent US audience

And the opening scene, with Howard Cosel

And

And

And

...Psychotic-Dumpf-Under-Some-Forbidden-Substance presidency, don't look that much negative to me?

Well, at least for me and probably numerous non native english speakers : it brought us to make a great bunch of various reading which enhanced our language knowledge.

A bit expensive method however It is like hunting small birds with a Sherman tank
