Trump's response when he was asked what are his top priorities for a second term.

Trump was stumped by Hannity’s softball question about his priorities for a second term. He has none. Zip. Zero. He still doesn’t have a clue! It is terrifying that people will vote for this egomaniacal fool.

Here's the transcript of Trump's response when he was asked what are his top priorities for a second term.

Do you think he didn’t hear the question and didn’t want to admit it? Or is he just...I don’t even know.

It IS hilarious that he didn’t have any talking points ready on this during an election year.

And of course Shovelface Hannity has a wet spot on the front of his pants after that hard -hitting interview.

He doesn't have any top or low priorities for a second term. His priorities are kind of like the Republican healthcare plan. It never shows up. How many years have they said they have a plan, but their only plan is to destroy what we already have? They rode out the Obama terms with that story and continued with the Trump administration.

They simply throw shit at the wall to see if it sticks. He's the expert at that trick.

A second term would be like watching a ball in a pinball machine. No purpose, no direction. Each department and cabinet member will do their own corrupt thing and it will result in even more chaos than we have now. If he has a second term, our only hope is to take the Senate. Encourage everyone you know to vote!

I think that translates to - "I am an idiot who doesn't have a fucking clue!" but honestly, those words are in english but I have no idea what he thinks he was saying?!?!?!? WTF??

I'ts just about preventing himself from going to jail and to have other profit opportunities shown to him by PUtin to hurt America and help Russia. He can't say that so he has zero to say. He's too stupid and narcissistic and lazy to actually think about how he would answer this totally obvious question. He just doesn't care about anything or anyone except himself, his profits and his hate.

Seriously, the only thing to look forward to in a second term is being one of the people he doesn't drop bombs on?

Only he really can’t say that. But his plan — if you can call it that — is more of the same.

Now that Americans know what his administration intends to do, they don’t like it. So he can’t tell the general population he is just going to double down. The only group that likes to hear that is his base and they are shrinking. So just gibberish seems to work better — for him. Most voters hearing it are scratching their heads wondering what is knocking around, bouncing off the walls of his skull.

His days as POTUS are numbered and he has no clue what to do to change the trajectory of his second campaign and won’t listen to anyone else. So hopefully he will go ahead and start packing. And think about about where he’ll be the afternoon of Inauguration Day 2021. And how he will look in an orange jumpsuit.

We have a new definition of “word salad.” A man without a plan or the ability to even feign coherence.
