I was hoping it would be some kind of Mech he would get in and fight.

We can tell Trump that's what he means, and see if he starts referring to it that way in his speeches

They say Biden is building a mech, that's what he's doing folks. Your tax money, his mech. I'll tell you I know a lot about mechs we could build a beautiful mech but no. It needs to be gas. Biden wants nuclear I want gas, we'll get gas back in America that's your jobs in honduras

I’ll give this a 4/10, mostly it’s too coherent, not rambly enough, and I doubt Trump would know Honduras is a country, let alone where to find it.

Everything after "I want gas" is just mobile keyboard auto fill words 🇺🇲

Now, listen, I don't... because, folks, have you heard, I don't know if you'd, maybe you hadn't heard this one. But people are saying, good people, saying he's building a robot. You know, like King Kong, a real.. it's yuuge, folks, really big. And it's coming out of your tax dollars. Now I don't know if.. because when I was telling Valerie about this, because it's really gotten to the point, you know, you walk down the street and they've got his face just posted up everywhere, Obama's.. sad. Very sad, folks, and it's just the beginning, won't be long before they're breaking out the prayer mats in elementary schools, folks, and I could have told you that fifteen years ago, that we'd get to this point, and now they have this giant robot.. well, maybe we'll have to get one for me, right folks? Only we'll make it run on coal, folks, clean burning coal, get some good hardworking Americans to keep their jobs, and we can have it up at the border - boy, that'll keep them back in their country, folks, and they can keep lying and stealing and raping over there, keep it outta the States. I said we should get a giant robot, I told John Kelly - crooked John Kelly, he's just no good, and Hilary and Obama and they're just, they're out to get me and you gotta put a stop to it.

Can we go further than that? I think we should try to convince him to build his own gaudy brass-plated mech, then laugh at him when he shuffles up a slow ramp to get inside the thing and it malfunctions in the process. Then he’ll try to convince Elon to buy it in order to afford his next appeal.

Anything you challenge him to do by insinuating he's a lesser man by not doing it, he will do

Only soy wojack soft boys with tiny hands don’t have their own mechs.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!
