Trump: "Energy is so big. It's so like amorphous. It's all over the place. If you make donuts, it's a stove"
You're viewing a single thread.
What is he talking about again ?
He’s talking about how energy is a stove, if you make donuts.
it's not a truck?
Maybe if you don’t make donuts.
Energy is a truck if you transport donuts?!?
My love for you is like a truck berserker
Fuck Your Yankee Blue Jeans
Aww, shucks. I sorta feel drawn to you, like magnetically.
It'd have to be a big and amorphous one, though.
That'd be tacos
It's a series of tubes.
Let's go to the list, maybe it's a person? woman? man? camera? tv?
No, none of those? Oh well, here's 40 minutes of awkward swaying to a bunch of random music that we have ready to play for some reason.
A dump truck specifically, one that you can drive a tube through.
Where are the science memes people when you need them
Picture of a stove?
I don't know if he even knows for sure
He is trying to say that we use energy (presumably he is talking specifically about fossil fuels) for everything and in ways that people may not even realize it. He is saying that without fossil fuels society can't function.
Quite a thorough job of sane-washing here
As someone who has always been around people speaking broken English, it becomes very easy to interpret word jumbles and mistranslations.
It's exhausting but if you examine what he says you'll find there is some sense to his ramblings. It's how he blurts them without any context that gives away his dementia
Arnold Palmer
He's talking about how energy is required for pretty much everything, like if you were going to make donuts (on a stove for some reason) it would take energy, it took energy for them to get to your home, etc. I always hated things like this, like this is one of the most coherent things he's said, it's like the boy who cried wolf, when it's actually noteworthy we're already tired of hearing it.
Take a second to remind yourself that if "this is one of the most coherent thing's he's said," how far the bar has been lowered for him and this behavior.
"It's not fair to pick on him for this, he completed a full sentence!" Oh, well whoopity-fucking-doo for him.
You’re doing what the media and his followers do, though. You’re interpreting for him.
There may be a coherent idea behind what he says but his ability to express it is severely deficient which is further evidence that he is unfit for the presidency.
I completely agree that he's unfit for the presidency, I just didn't think it was that bad of a sentence.
"Energy is required for all work" is not really a noteworthy statement.
If he managed to say it as coherently as I just did, it might be noteworthy, except for the fact that it would be inevitably followed by an incessant stream of gibberish.
So you have a problem with the sentence itself and not that it was spoken by Trump?
Actually, I have a problem with both.
It's a completely unnecessary statement for anyone with an elementary school level understanding of the world. However, if a candidate for president of the United States is going to make such an inane statement, he should at least speak coherently.
Work requires energy. That's easy to say, and easy to understand.
Trump talks like a six year old trying to explain to his parents what he learned in school today.
Who the fuck makes donuts on a stove in a business context or any context really.
Why would a bakery use a stove instead of a commercial fryer? why would a single person make a donut from scratch with frosting for a single fucking donut at home instead of going to a shop to just buy one for a dollar?
It's a terrible sentence, it makes no sense whatsoever in any context.
It's just standard trump word vomit.
That's the complete opposite of what NABDad said. "If he managed to say it as coherently as I just did," implies a belief that the sentence is at the very least marginally incoherent. Which further implies that they do actually have a problem with the sentence itself.
Is your suggestion to the contrary a mistake made because you were overinvested in the point you're trying to argue, or was it purposeful misinterpretation?
Agree. People in this thread pretending they don't understand what he's saying...that's just bad faith criticism that they're angry enough to excuse in themselves right now. Resist that shit.
Given just the added context of his tone of speech in the audio, his meaning became immediately clear. If we had two or three sentences of additional context on either side of this quote, my guess is the text would have been just as easily understandable as the video was.
