Speaka Da English?
Trump just explained to Sean Hannity about this tax returns.
“I’m under tax audit, I have been for a long period of time,” the president told Hannity. “Once I ran for politics that deal was like we didn’t make it. So I’m under a continuing audit, and anyone that did that or showed that before you have it finalized, but they treat, they treat me horribly, the IRS. It is a disgrace what has happened. We had a deal done, I guess it was signed even. Once I ran or once I won, somewhere back a long time ago everything was like let’s start all over again.”
Remember when he made a perfect score on the cognitive test and the doctors had never seen that before, insinuating that he has more cognitive than anyone else on the planet?
Yeah.
ummmm… the President’s and Vice President’s individual tax returns have been under mandatory audit since long before the current occupant took office. Not that it matters.
1Yeah, well the IRS probably wasn’t as impressed with Donnie drawing camels all over his tax returns as Donnie thought they’d be.
2Alexandra Petri described his returns (sarcastically) in WaPo as something a normal human is unable to even view because the sight is so scary. I think it’s just his brain that’s too scary to look upon!
3…but they treat, they treat me horribly, the IRS. We had a deal done,
Spoken like cheap Brooklyn mobster whining in front of the mafia don about the inequities of a hood’s life.
4Hannity is his go to guy whenever he wants to explain what doesn’t make sense. Maybe soon the Manhattan DA will be able to explain to DUHTrumpf what he did wrong on his taxes. Then maybe Hannity can interview him behind bars. That would be worth watching.
5Oh, and when Trumpf talks about fraud in our elections, he should know, he IS the fraud from our 2016 election.
A “continuing audit” makes as much sense as a “continuing colonoscopy” although both of these require an a$$h0le.
6“We had a deal done, I guess it was signed even.”
I’m working on my 2019 taxes as we speak. What department do I call for that signed IRS deal?
7This is a little late to the conversation but the sarcasm, mockery and brutalization of colloquial english in this scene is spot on.
Audit boy had to have picked some of this jargon up in his deals… ‘like so many nickels and dimes.’

8Lurch the Loser is going to have a lot of time to get those ‘perpetual’ IRS audits worked out from his Graybar Hotel suite after 20 Jan 2021. So will Jarvanka and the rest of the TCF [trump crime family] and friends.
.
Joe Biden damn well better insist on Lurch’s long ‘promised’ release of his tax returns before Joe agrees to any debates!
What’s the deal with Biden’s campaign in Texas? I made an ActBlue contribution and then went to the Biden campaign homepage.
They have an ‘Action’ page where you can search for nearby JB events. Nowhere I looked [by zip], or even the whole state, did it find anything.
Are JB and the Dems not bothering with Texas? Polls are showing a reasonable chance of flipping Texas, that would put the dagger in trump’s chest [~39EVs]. Why no apparent JB action down here?
PS– My pick for Biden’s VP is now Amb/NID Susan Rice [and she was always in the top 5].
9Rice’s always been one of the smartest, best presences in the room. Saw her on a Sunday politics show and Andrea kept asking about it and it sounded like there might be something going on… I think that the Rethugs hate her, a big plus.
Sandridge @8, Slo Joe will not disrespect your health and/or the possible death to you and others with mass rally events, unlike the ***king moron* who holds his* ego needs above all others and has no problems with being ground zero for the next vector infecting thousands. Did Donnie* “learn” after his* Tulsa flop? He* doubled down and went to Mt. Rushmore to spread COVID-19.
fwiw I’m “good” with Joe having virtual meetings with expert policy makers, members of Congress, and issuing policy statements. I know what the guy looks like. I don’t feel the need to “see” him, shake hands or whatever else is necessary to spread COVID-19. Hell, seems like a perfectly responsible model going forward. If NH and Iowa insist on eye to eye contact with candidates, let them pay for that stupidity.
10Sort of off subject but Trumpf has commuted Roger Stone’s sentence. I guess he took Barrf’s suggestion not to “pardon” him. Look for Stoney to be on Hannity and on the campaign trail with Flynn.
11What dressing goes with word salad? Whatever it is, we’re all gonna need a whole lot of it. I’m guessing that would be Russian dressing?
12Jane & PKM @10, You’re right about physical meetings of course . I guess I was thinking more of the lack of any media type stuff. Haven’t seen any tv spots, signs, ads, etc at all around here. The Ds don’t seem to be spending any dinero hereabouts, yet anyway. They had better get rolling.
13twocrows#12 – Thanks for that! Just goes to show, Ramp Boy has all the best cognitive. (p.s. haven’t seen Russian dressing in years, and you can’t make a real Reuben sandwich without it.)
14The revelation that Trump had a cognitive test made the pieces click into place.
If you go back to the ’90s, his language was much more coherent and fluent than recently. He has been deteriorating for years. I suspect due to a series of small strokes (he had one on live teevee when he couldn’t say orange).
Earlier this year, he took another step down, and he looked terrible and sounded worse. Just recently (roughly since the cognitive test) he has looked and sounded better.
I am not a physician but I am an expert in language. It reveals a lot. What happened was his doctors became alarmed by his rapid deterioration and thus the cognitive test.
Don’t know what it found but I suspect either that it was caused by some medication (not necessarily prescribed) or, more likely, low blood sugar. (His rages are typical of out-of-control diabetics.)
Now that he’s being overseen, he has returned to his normal functional level (ignorant 3rd grader).
15My guess is he was given the answers by his incredibly believable doctors.
16Also he won’t read his “speeches” in advance and stumbles over unfamiliar words (“totally-tarry-tism”).
Tonight’s rally in NH is postponed, although I’m sure AF1 can fly through the light rain that’s forecast. More likely they couldn’t fill a small hangar and didn’t want Tulsa II.
He’s got another appointment at Walter Reed today, probably to adjust the meds.
17Like John Bolton said, Trumpf doesn’t do anything except campaign for himself. His visit to Walter Reed was just a photo op because his campaign told him it would be good optics, not because he gives a shit about wounded veterans.
18Some of them might have been ambushed in Afghanistan because of his ignoring Russian paid bounties
That he finally wore a mask after months and almost 140K deaths isn’t because he gives a shit about anyone. It was just to distract from other news about his corruption.
