      I can literally hear him say all of that stuff, it’s so embarrassingly accurate. After decades of telling the American people government doesn’t work, the Republicans finally proved they were right… by nominating and electing an insanely unpredictable, greedy, self-serving criminal hatemonger to the highest office in the nation TWICE, not to mention the other major duds we’ve had through the years. Good show guys, really.

    “It’s on fire and it is a fire. It’s the same — not a lot of people know that… maybe some sma– very, rather smart people know that it’s the same word. Fire - fire. I came up with it one day, actually. I thought to myself ‘that building is on fire’ and people would ask ‘what’s going on with that building? What’s all that stuff with the flames coming out’ and I told them ‘simple. It’s… a fire.’ See? On fire, is a fire.”

      “…and we have the greatest fires, some of the best fires in the world… I’m telling ya. CHY-nuh doesn’t even come close to the fires our great country has. People always tell me, they say, Mr. President… you’re so wonderful, how do you do it? How do you come up with these wonderful words and make them so GREATuh. I just tell them, you know know, I say, it’s simple rea… zzZzz”

      “And these people would come up to me, very big people. Powerful. The generals. They’d come up to me… 'SIR! No one knew what to call this, but we can finally fight the fire with firefighters after you called it a fire. We tried for years, ever since the last president… Fake president, fake election. Totally rigged. They used to call it. They tried to call it a fire, but you saw how he looked, they couldn’t even- didn’t even try to call it a fire, a flame, nothing. They said it was amazing, I was the first president ever to call it a fire. Even before I was president, even when- do you think Crooked Hillary could have called it a fire? They didn’t have that in the emails. We have all of them. Every single email, we have them, and they deleted most of it. Unrecoverable, they said. You know what that means, ‘unrecoverable?’ It’s a term they use for computer- in the computer- everything is computer. It means ‘can.not.be.recovered.cannot.be.found,’ but we have all of them, they were right there. We couldn’t find them because of the cover-up, but they were right there. It was- it was amazing. They said it was truly incredible, they could finally fight the fire after, yours truly, the greatest president of all time, was the first one to ever call it fire. We’re getting- we’re getting rea- gonna do another executive order. Put it into an executive order to call the fire a fire.”

    It’s always the fucking hands. If they’re not comically small, they look like they’re rotting off, trying to become Thing to distance themselves from the walking plague.
