This is also why he loves bringing up Hannibal Lector. Who he refers to as ‘the late great Hannibal Lector’ and is occasionally confused about whether he’s real or not. He will literally give a speech about how immigrants coming in are like Hannibal Lector because he doesn’t understand what asylum seeker means

I never made that connection before. How deep does this rabbit hole go?!

Vaush has been saying this for a while… I’m glad more people are coming to the same conclusion; it really does feel like the most likely explanation.

It’s just like the COVID injecting bleach and light thing. He saw a sign about hospital cleaning protocols right before making a speech. Rather than plan a speech and have experts review it, he just said what sounded right in his head.

I relate this quite a bit, so maybe you’ve heard it. The bleach and UV thing was dumber than most know.

Can’t find the whole video anymore, now they only show Trump speaking at the podium. But what came before is the real meat of the story.

Trump enters stage right to do a press briefing on COVID. He stops for a minute to examine a CDC infographic, gives a quick nod and mounts the stage.

Y’all. It was a poster about methods for disinfecting surfaces. This idiot scanned it and started spewing nonsense in an effort to look knowledgeable.

Yeah that’s exactly what I was referring to! Imagine being the President of the United States, arguably the most powerful position in the world, and just winging it.
