There was that one time when he saw his hairline, but once he got that hair-in-a-can, no more tears!

He cries every time he is held accountable for something. He cries that he will sue them.

What? No, no, no. That’s not the question you ask. You ask that one the guy on Twitter did.

“If you had a soul, how much would you sell it for?”

“I’m not somebody that goes around crying a lot. But I know people like that. I know plenty of people that cry. They’re very good people.”

Holy crap. Even Mitt Romney is more empathetic than this guy. And Mitt Romney is an android.

“No, I’m not a big crier. I like to get things done. I’m not a big crier. I’m not somebody that goes around crying a lot.”

The repetition thing of his, in all seriousness, wears me out.

The reason this was asked was to allow Donald to take a pot shot at Obama for his public tears. If a person is unable to cry, it is not a sign of strength – its a sign that they are emotionally repressed. But we know that about Trump anyway.

Notice that Brody didn’t ask about whining. Or temper tantrums.

So, no tears at the births of any of his five children, nor the deaths of his parents or brother, nor at his children’s weddings, nor about his divorces, nor when Ivana got his yacht…

Trump has this weird tic, never copping to a trait he yet somehow dog whistles is a failure on the part of others. Nevertheless he forgives them because they’re good people. As if knowing them makes him familiar with the common man, yet still distant from and above their shortcomings.

I don’t ask forgiveness, but I know people that do, and they’re good people.
I’m not a Muslim, but I know many Muslims that are good people.
I don’t cry, but I know people that cry, and they’re good people.
We need to deport illegal Mexicans. But I know many Mexicans, and hire them to work for me, and they’re good people.
Hillary is bad, but women love me, I know many good women, and many work for me.

He doesn’t want to ever share any trait or quality with humanity, because he’s above everyone, superior. But he wants you to be sure to know all his inferiors are good people, and if any of them want to work in the steno pool or a job mowing a golf fairway he’s happy to have you on board.

Usually, only when he shampoos his plugs or soaps his privates…
(And every freaking time he watches ‘Steel Magnolias’.)

But if you don’t hear the same phrase at least twice you won’t remember what he said. You simply won’t remember what he said. And that’s really important, you know, to remember exactly what he said. Otherwise you might forget.

“That’s not fair! I see what you did and I’m fair and I’ve always been fair, and generous too, but fairer than most even when they’re not fair. I’m Donald Trump.”

Noooooooo! I’m begging ya.

I like the idea of pitching what for anyone else would be softball questions, but which challenge Trump to go further and further with his machismo shtick. So keep asking questions about empathy and “softness” and and see how far he’ll go to distance himself from normal human frailties because he’s a tough guy.

“I’m not really big on puppies. I know some people that love to play with puppies, and they’re good people.”

“Orphans are for losers. I prefer winners who have parents.”

Etc.
