Here we go again

1. Is that how he got here?

9. DUzy!! 🏆🏅

[eShirl]

2. Is he talking about ICE recruiting?

[GPV]

3. I guess he wants to be the only nutter? Makes him feel special!

4. +1

5. Has everyone heard the theory

That he hears, “They’re seeking asylum”. and he thinks that means they are from an insane asylum. Not sure how widespread this idea is.

12. +1

And once a false notion is in his head, it can't be changed

13. That seems likely. It helps to explain...

...why Trump refers to "Hannibal Lecter" so often. That was a favorite bon mot of his on the campaign trail. Otherwise, I can't understand why Trump would be so preoccupied with a movie villain from three decades ago.

Let's not forget, this is the idiot who either confuses or simply doesn't know the difference between "seeking asylum" vs. being a patient in an asylum. That's why he keeps referring to "Hannibal Lecter" (Silence of the Lambs) all the time!

14. Yep I've heard that too

And given his incoherent and simplistic ramblings it makes sense.

And of course, he’s a fucking idiot.

[Swede]

15. Yes I've heard it. I believe it.

The asshole is that stupid.

6. Embarrassing.

Is he wearing prostheic gloves or something? His hands look weirdly strange and his fingers are not moving. Right hands looks like its fake.

11. Probably a special effects type latex glove to hide bruising or ulcers

If he's got any circulation, nerve, or arthritis issues, just having a thin latex covering may cause problems moving the fingers or wrist

[unblock]

7. And putting them in charge of the federal government!

8. If only the key insane man free to harm us all was not a native born US President...

[Kid Berwyn]

10. Demented brain recalling old news as new thoughts.

It was Castro and it was one time from Cuba — the Muriel Boatlift.
