Reminds me of the old joke about prisoners calling out, "Number 10", and then laughing uproariously. The new guard asks why. "It's because they've heard the jokes so often, they've numbered them to save time".

Hannibal Lector is his only joke. Sad.

Some news sites have a suppposed transcript with no mention of H L. For example,

https://www.nbcboston.com/news/national-international/read-donald-trumps-full-rnc-speech-accepting-gop-nomination/3432055/

What they posted is probably the version in the teleprompter, not the crazier version actually given by Trump.

He also suddenly said, "China virus" with a menacing sound and look.

However, I wasn't sure..LOL Something about opening up insane asylums and sending immigrants to the US and how the next RNC convention would be in Venezuela unless he (Trump) was elected.

Full disclosure: I have never seen Silence of the Lambs.
