He. Is. A. Fucking. Moron.

[Stinky The Clown]

He called Woodward from the residence, late at night. HE called. With zero staff cover. Like fucking a late night bar pickup without a condom at the Motel 6.

He is, as he has been called by people in his own inner circle, a fucking moron.

He talked to the guy who cooked Nixon's goose. Without aides.

He. Is. A. Fucking. Moron.

[Hekate]

1. Did you catch Claire McCaskill's glorious rant during Nicolle W's show?

Woodward. Bob “goodbye Nixon” Woodward.

[Stinky The Clown]

3. I caught the very end. She was en fuego!!!

A thing of beauty.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

2. I just heard that - I didn't know until now that Trump called Woodward at night!

Apparently Trump, who is both a narcissist and stupid, thought he could wheedle Woodward into writing a favorable book about him. Woodward, the guy who brought down another president and has written multiple books exposing presidential foibles ever since. How stupid do you have to be to voluntarily blab all manner of stuff (including, apparently, classified info about nuclear weapons systems) to Bob Fucking Woodward?

[Tanuki]

5. He is his own Deep Throat!

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

6. LOL!

More like his Deep Colon.

[Crunchy Frog]

26. How can one tell the difference?

[Stinky The Clown]

9. You do know that comment is now stolen . . . . .

. . . . . by me!

LOL

[Hekate]

14. Use it wisely

[MustLoveBeagles]

10. LOL

[PatSeg]

18. Oh, that is perfect!

[mountain grammy]

19. Ha peru

[Hassler]

4. And imagine how dumb his base is!

[Tess49]

7. Brian Williams just referred to Kayleigh McEnany as Baghdad Bob because she tried

to put a spin on this. Lol!

[MustLoveBeagles]

11. LOL

8. Smarter than, of course.

[captain queeg]

12. He thinks he is smarter than everyone else

He’s used to BSing someone till they stop talking. He’s convinced he convinced them of whatever, but really they just get tired of listening to him so they clam up. In his mind he’s the great persuader, the great negotiator. In reality after awhile people just stop talking to him because he’s as dumb as a rock. He’s probably greatly surprised that Woodward’s book doesn’t shower him with praise.

[KS Toronado]

20. Your last sentence is 100% correct.

[LuckyLib]

21. This is it. Add to this the fact that he knows no history and doesn't read at all. He might be

able to tell you that Woodward had something to do with Watergate, but the details? Meh. He has no clue who he is talking to. He just wants to hear himself talk. Definitely as dumb as a rock.

[moonscape]

22. The thing is, I don't believe he thinks

that. He’s so intellectually insecure, but seems to keep =trying= to be smarter than everyone else to tamp down that insecurity, to prove to himself he’s not as stupid as deep down he knows he is, but over, and over, and over keeps failing.

It’s like a gambling addict who knows he keeps losing but can’t resist rolling the dice over and over in a futile attempt to beat the house.

Paging Mary Trump! This requires a professional!

[C_U_L8R]

13. Trump's vanity knows no bounds

and he just can't resist a microphone.

[Blue Owl]

15. K&R

[Ohio Joe]

16. I've been wondering about that...

I'm thinking he either had morons on with him or he was even dumber and talked alone... It must fucking hurt to be that stupid.

[BigmanPigman]

17. Jared encouraged him to work with Woodward and so did

Lindsey Graham. Jared is also the one who told him he should fire Comey. Great advice

[Midnight Writer]

23. Makes me wonder who else he calls and what he tells them.

[Totally Tunsie]

24. Part of Chump's problem is that he is so overly impressed

with himself that he can't refrain from telling everyone else how important he is (IHO). These late night phonecalls are Chump's way of saying "Hey - I'm a big shot. Listen to what I know that you don't. You need to be impressed because I'm so much smarter than you." It's a Class A ego trip for him.

That's why he dropped the info about the weapons build-up "that neither Putin or Xi know anything about". He's thumping his chest, and proclaiming how "in" he is, that he has this info before everyone else.

All this, and
He. Is. A. Fucking. Moron.

[JI7]

25. He thought Woodward would be Charmed by him

[speaknow]

27. Moron, that's to kind.

He is a F-ing maniac.
Remember he's the smartist of the smart!
Knows everything there is to know.
Actually he's an overt narcissist extreme,can't
keep a secret,loves to brag he knows some
thing you don't know.

[appalachiablue]

28. Stimulants, speed also increase energy, verbosity,

super confidence and feelings of euphoria. Right on target..

At the Berghof, his 'country home' the fuhrer would invite guests, make them sit thru very long winded dinner conversations that he liked, then it was cake and coffee and showing them new movies for hours. These affairs went on until 3-4 am, and people were bored and falling asleep.

Not Adolf, he was keyed up probably because of being wired on the meth cocktail and more that Doc Morrell, aka Dr. Feelgood administered to him daily. In order to sleep off the drugs, Adolf didn't rise until 11 -12 pm. He didn't want to be disturbed before then, even on the early morning of the D-Day Normandy invasion so it's said.
