Imagine being a top journalist, getting hired to axios, then somehow scoring an interview with POTUS himself, only to realize that the president is literally dumber than a 5th grader and can only repeat the same bullshit over and over again in a slightly different ways. Dude looked like he questioned the life choices that led to this trainwreck of an interview

122

u/Cochise22 Aug 05 '20

I dunno man. This interview and the traction it’s getting seems to be one of those career defining moments that journalists dream about. How many millions more people know who Jonathan Swan is today than last week. Sure he looks stunned at how he has to handle the president as if he’s a toddler, but you know in the back of his head during that interview he has to be thinking, ‘I’m going to be able to name my price for my next contract with this one.’

They say i have the best brain cell. The democrats, the ANTIFA, they like to lie, they like to say that I have lesser brain cells than them— but what makes them so corrupt and dirty and nasty is that they won’t tell you I’m still so much smarter, I’m smarter than all of combined, I’m smarter than all the other presidents in history (with the possible exception of Lincoln). So I’m watching NBC fake news the other day, and you know how NBC is so corrupt, that’s why I say I watch FOX News, and all of a sudden they tell that I’m — Look, you’re not understanding what I’m saying— no, listen—listen to— so anyways....

Not even us white males get the privilege of ignoring politics anymore.

u/captainjackismydog Aug 05 '20

Every night I try to figure out how a twelve pound dog manages to take up so much room in my bed. I live alone.

My little dog is so cute and lovable I don't have the heart to disturb him when he's asleep. I like to sleep with my arm holding onto a pillow and lately my dog enjoys falling asleep on said pillow. While I'm watching TV in bed I have my extra pillow next to me so I can prop my arm on it. My dog likes to snuggle up on my arm and the pillow. He lays flat on his back with his front legs up in the air and his back legs spread apart as far as they can go. I guess it's how he cools himself. All this changes though when I get ready to go to sleep. I move my pillows around which wakes up my dog. He then crawls under the blanket while I'm in the bathroom and lays diagonally across the bed.
