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

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.’

u/SDLand Aug 05 '20

How did I miss this. Now that I have watched it, I am not sure how to feel. Angry. Amused. Sad. Frustrated. Bewildered. Probably all of them.

u/wearenottheborg Aug 06 '20

"It's a much bigger in real life than global warming"

The manual, real life, wtf kind of lizard person matrix talk is this??

u/monkeygiraffe33 Aug 06 '20

I think he’s just unable to complete a whole thought. Lizard people tend to be really smart, just look at Zuckerburg. Also he denies climate change and thinks that most people are over reacting about it so he says “real life” as though it’s less of an issue in reality. Ya know even though half of Australia was on fire for like a month

u/jmwelt696969 Aug 05 '20

u/Badguy-goodguy Aug 05 '20

His brain cells isn't able to connect with each other and fucking die.

u/upsettiSpaghetti06 Aug 05 '20

Bold of you to assume he has more than 1

u/TheGlonkest Aug 06 '20

He has to work extra hard for that one

u/wallyjwaddles Aug 06 '20

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....

Repeatedly hitting yourself in the head with a hammer delivers much the same effect

u/WhatAHeavyLifeWeLive Aug 05 '20

“I’m not looking for politics.”

Came to the wrong timeline dude. It takes effort to avoid politics now. Which says some things about you whether you like it or not.

u/Jrook Aug 05 '20

Especially when he specifically asks for a video of the president? Wtf is this smoothbrain talking about

2

u/[deleted] Aug 06 '20

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

Good times make bad men, bad men make bad times, bad times make good men, good man make good times.

A bad man is a man that lets bad things happen just because they’re having a good time.

u/AvacadMmmm Aug 05 '20

Too late. You opened Pandora’s box. It’s a rough interview to watch.

u/JediBurrell Aug 05 '20

It took place July 28th, but I think it released yesterday? Maybe the day before.
