TPM "Trump Speaks At Length During Debate In Indecipherable Code Of Far-Right Fever Swamps"

https://talkingpointsmemo.com/news/trump-right-wing-swamps-biden-debate

President Donald Trump, who spends much of his time in the right-wing fever swamps of Twitter and TV, has come to speak the language — a reality on full display during the last presidential debate of 2020.

But for those of us who don’t live in those worlds, it can be impossible to figure out what he’s talking about.


In the first hour of the debate, Trump tossed out handfuls of buzzwords for various conspiracy theories, Greek to those who left their Fox News decoders at home.

“Joe got $3.5 million dollars from Russia and it came through Putin because he was friendly with the mayor of Moscow, and it was the mayor of Moscow’s wife,” he said.

Back to the debate, where things made considerably less sense: “There is nobody tougher on Russia than Donald Trump,” the aforementioned Trump continued.

“They were so bad,” he opined, “they took over the submarine port.”

snip = more nonsense and some classic Joe expression screen shots at the link.

"I can't even see the audience because it's so dark. But I don't care who's in the audience. I'm the least racist person in this room"

Sounded kinda racist and fucked up to these ears.
