      I'd trust Trump to repeat his financial genius on my 401k which Mr. Magoo has destroyed. He speaks in mid thought sometimes and it sounds bad, this being a prime example, however we weren't the laughingstock of the world like we are now. Support the Alzheimer's disease that Biden obviously has, election time is coming. If it isn't Trump, several others waiting in the wings that actually can form a sentence.

    I had narcissists in my family. Faced with the truth, they would always fall into shotgunning their entire arsenal of distraction and denial weaponry. ASP it was laughably contradictory. The best weapon against it I learned was to reply to the contradictions then add sweetly, "are you blind, or a moron?"
    No matter what, "moron" would shut 'em down. And keep calling them a moron everytime their NPD rears.

Having had a parent who also suffered from dementia, I can agree with that. In the Dumpster's case, however, it is more likely he is desperate to deflect the narrative once again away from his own misconduct toward anything or anyone else, here back to one of his favorite punching bags, Hillary Clinton.
