A Crazy Story With Electric

Had to look it up. The full quote is great, even mentions his uncle at MIT.

Now they'll say all these stories are terrible. Well, these stories have, you know, you heard my story in the boat with the shark, right? I got killed on that. They thought I was rambling. I'm not rambling. We can't get the boat to float. The battery is so heavy. So then I start talking about asking questions. You know, I have an, I had an uncle who was a great professor at MIT for many years, long, I think the longest tenure ever. Very smart, had three different degrees and you know, so I have an aptitude for things. You know, there is such a thing as an aptitude. I said, well, what would happen if this boat is so heavy and started to sink and you're on the top of the boat. Do you get electrocuted or not? In other words, the boat is going down and you're on the top, will the electric currents flow through the water and wipe you out? And let's say there's a shark about 10 yards over there. Would I have to immediately abandon or could I ride the electric down and he said, sir, nobody's ever asked us that question. But sir, I don't know. I said, well, I want to know because I guarantee you one thing, I don't care what happens. I'm staying with the electric, I'm not getting over with it. So I tell that story. And the fake news they go, he told this crazy story with electric. It's actually not crazy. It's sort of a smart story, right? Sort of like, you know, it's like the snake, it's a smart when you, you figure what you're leaving in, right? You're bringing it in the, you know, the snake, right? The snake and the snake. I tell that and they do the same thing

Edit: I don’t even think this is the full quote, he wasn’t rambling though.

Edit 2: Grabbed it from here https://x.com/KamalaHQ/status/1804592040791122259

He sounds too old to be president. His brain has clearly turned to mush.

It's starting to make sense how 19th century people could fall for literal snake oil salesman, but would never elect a clown like Trump. He couldn't exist if he was only able to communicate through print.

Somehow, came upon Trumps speech from the RNC last night. Started reading random parts outloud. Ended up convinced all the Democrats have to do is run ads with all the incoherent crap he says.

This is a sample from a speech where he talks non-stop for 82 minutes.

If you started playing the movie Toy Story the moment he first speaks, the end credits would finish, and there would still be another full minute before he finally stops talking again.

This belongs in /c/aneurysmposting. I can't remember how to link to communities in lemmy.

Have you really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?

Kamala really needs to take him up on that cognitive test challenge he gave to Biden.

I stopped actually listening to his words in 2015.

I leave to people with stronger constitutions to do this work.

I'd get a lot of amusement out of an LLM based entirely off of Trump ramblings

I have a theory where Trump actually can't really read, he can maybe vaguely tell what 100 or so words look like and has been faking it ever since he was a small child, to the point where he's very good at fake reading. This would explain why he does so terribly with teleprompters.

No one over 70 should be allowed to run for public office

What a fucking moron.

Taken from this long speech:

Time stamp 3:17:29 for the relevant bit with a smidge more context.

I got about 1/3 through this and then my brain just shut down and refused to continue. Kind of like the literary equivelent of Foul Old Rons smell.

Demented Donald. Not sure why the Repubs want to run a geriatric brainlet in steep decline.

Someone put this man in the highest seat of power you can think of! Right now!

I can usually cobble together some idea of what he's rambling about. This is utter nonsense.

I’m so glad he cleared that up /s
