I’m not going to quote any of it because the entire thing is full of insanity and I’d have to quote it all. The man is a legitimate psychopath who has disconnected his brain from reality to protect himself from it. And we elected him president.

I came to post the exact thing with almost the exact words. Let me pull some choice quotes here:

“That speech was a home run,” Trump told ABC News just a few minutes into his first major television interview since moving into the White House. “See what Fox said. They said it was one of the great speeches. They showed the people applauding and screaming. … I got a standing ovation. In fact, they said it was the biggest standing ovation since Peyton Manning had won the Super Bowl, and they said it was equal. I got a standing ovation. It lasted for a long period of time.”

So his speech at the CIA with 350 people was the biggest standing ovation since February 2016 at a game with an attendance of 71,088.

“I would’ve won the popular vote if I was campaigning for the popular vote,” Trump said. “I would’ve gone to California, where I didn’t go at all. I would’ve gone to New York, where I didn’t campaign at all. I would’ve gone to a couple of places that I didn’t go to. And I would’ve won that much easier than winning the electoral college.”

Then why didn’t you do that?

“You have people that are registered who are dead, who are illegals,” said Trump, who has called for an investigation. “You have people registered in two states. They’re registered in New York and New Jersey. They vote twice. There are millions of votes, in my opinion.”

You’d think we’d be able to find more than 4 or 5 an election when the people who are paid to find these things look. And that they wouldn’t mostly be Republicans.

“You know,” Trump continued, “I always talk about the reporters that grovel when they want to write something that you want to hear, but not necessarily millions of people want to hear, or have to hear.”

That’s not what groveling is.

“We’re going to launch an investigation to find out,” Trump said. “And then the next time — and I will say this: Of those votes cast, none of them come to me. None of them come to me. They would all be for the other side. None of them come to me.”

Millions of fraudulent votes, and none for him? If they do an investigation and find that there was this huge fraud and EVERY SINGLE VOTE was for Hillary, its a scam designed to restrict minority voting perpetrated by his people.

“We had a massive crowd of people. We had a crowd. I looked over that sea of people and I said to myself: ‘Wow.’ And I’ve seen crowds before. Big, big crowds. That was some crowd. When I looked at the numbers that happened to come in from all of the various sources, we had the biggest audience in the history of inaugural speeches."

“Here’s a picture of the crowd,” the president explained to the nation he now leads. “Now, the audience was the biggest ever, but this crowd was massive. Look how far back it goes. This crowd was massive. And I would actually take that camera and take your time [scanning the crowd] if you want to know the truth.”

So Trump is doing what I said Spicer should have been more clear on; he’s making an important distinction between worldwide audience and the crowd that was gathered there. Of course, he is still harping on it when the media was complaining about Spicer’s half-truth, no one is going to deny that the crowd that did show up showed up.

JEDIT: From the VF piece:

“I think he has to say that. I’m just telling you there will be a payment. It will be a form, perhaps a complicated form.”

It could be any form. “Choose your Destructor” style? Or maybe it’ll be in the form of POG’s. I miss POG’s.
