Did you hear that on BBC? How amazing would that be.

Translate, please, DGR - you speak rudimentary Donald

I'll be honest I only saw the thread updated, which is why I commented.

If I was to type a "list of things I would rather do before watching Donald Trump live", the internet would run out of commas. And if too many people insist on watching Trump live, then comas might be a very real worry too.

I think it was there are boats, beautiful boats, amazing boats. We are speeding on a vaccine, we will be the quickest ever to do this so we win the race.

Helenj1977 · 18/03/2020 16:19

He's basically told everyone how to self test 😂 As in, you do it yourself 🙄

Hey ! We had curtains like that once ! Small world.

I don't know, he's just a natural at it. He's very good at science. He could have been a scientist. He's a great scientist. He gets it. he does science bigly. Science is kinda a thing, you see. And it's his thing that he does. In fact he does great science. He's got all the elements of medical.

You win the internet today 😂😂

Rainbowunicat · 18/03/2020 16:25

That link won't let me see it. Are you all watching it in the US?

Soontobe60 · 18/03/2020 16:27

The only bit I understood in his ramblings was 'we're going to have an very exciting meeting tomorrow'.
I just couldn't make sense of anything else🤷🏼‍♀️

Soontobe60 · 18/03/2020 16:28

It was just on BBC news (601 on Virgin)

Helenj1977 · 18/03/2020 16:30

No vaccine 😢 Just Trump being a dick.

He looks like a spitting image puppet when you really look at him.

I find he's so clever, so powerful, such a master, that I can kind of tell what he's saying without words. He's kinda like manages to say something in all languages at the same time. It's a gift. You know ? People say "oh this is a gift he has", and it is. It's a great gift. It's the best gift to have. I mean Thanksgiving and days - birthdays, but this is a bigger gift. People just seem to know what I'm saying. I know people. They know me. And I know they know what I'm saying. Because ... well I've always known what I'm saying. Do know know what I mean ? You must know what I mean, because I am so good - so good - at saying. You want something said ? Then you need me to say it. Like now. I'm saying something - really saying something. You see. I am the bestest at saying. I don't wanna brag about it, I'm just saying.

(at that point my neural network hit a buffer overflow. But it wrote that in less time than Donald could read it ....)

AGnu · 18/03/2020 16:31

He's meeting with nurses... He's looking forward to it. They're very brave... to be meeting with him, I assume!

hoovermyrug · 18/03/2020 16:35

"We're looking at numbers big numbers. We've never seen anything like it, we've got great people here looking at the numbers. It's a big thing"

I think that's the size of it?

BoreOfWhabylon · 18/03/2020 17:08

Oh god - he's just been asked if most people would condemn the use of the term "Kung Flu" when referring to the virus

"No, they'd agree with it. It comes from China"

SoupDragon · 18/03/2020 17:09

🤦🏻‍♀️
