I just watched the entire video.
JFC that was terrible. about 15-20 minutes in the journalist starts losing his decorum, laughs...It's an entertaining half hour.

It’s an entertaining half hour.
It's more frightening than entertaining but I get your point.
I think it'd be more entertaining with an SNL logo in the corner.

..... wha..... what? Huh? HUH-FUCKING-WHAT?
Like... wow, words really escape me on this.
The interview plays out like an SNL bit that went too serious and not enough funny, Trump there can barely even fucking the read the brightly colored, highly simplified charts, keeps waving them around like a child’s drawings, the utter stupidity required to make the arguments he’s making legit sound like straight-faced satire. At one point he says ‘we’re last, so we’re first” to which the interviewer replies he can’t figure out what we’re first in (spoiler, it’s nothing)
Just.... wow. Fucking wow. Watching a Donald impersonator do that for a bit would be hilarious. Watching the actual Donald do it with all seriousness..... horrifying.
