It’s endless, when the person insists that they know more about any and every subject than anyone else and insists on “correcting” everyone around him on things he knows nothing about.

I just hope he doesn’t want to come to “help” in the aftermath for a photo op, because the last thing emergency services is going to need is to be diverted from the real work to babysit that circus.
We’re on the west coast and well outside the cone, btw, but are packed to the gills with houseguests who had to evacuate.

Oh, you know the Trump concierge is already planning that trip. You know it.
And DT will bring Play-Doh again, just like the last time.
Governor Scott will allow DT there, probably on Tuesday or Wednesday, but respectfully request HRC to wait until they have had time to get out from under the damage. You know… three or four weeks from now…,
yep. and its synonym is dickhead.
@mattinpa New Or-lee-ans. People rarely say it correctly, and natives are often pleasantly surprised when they hear it said this way.

Jesus. He’s still sniffing like a madman. Somebody just STOP him already! Jesus christ.
My former partner was born and raised there. When we met (all those years ago in SF), he was surprised I pronounced it properly. Then he was surprised I was from the South because I didn’t have much of an accent. LOL. Now that I’m back in Virginia, my accent level has been ramped up.

Idiot. Of course he knows everything and everybody else is dumb.
On a happier note, I see Obama’s approval rating has hit 55%!

Just imagine what that number would be if America hadn’t had to deal with the likes of FOX Entertainment, BrickShit, Alex Jones and the like. The GOP and these rightwinger media have really created a cesspool mixture of the hate-filled and the proudly uneducated.

If not for Fox and the GOP he’d probably be around 65%.

Like other moments that for better or worse defined a politician (Dukakis in a tank, 47%, the price of milk…), this is interesting for what it reveals about Trump’s character. There is, of course, the low hanging fruit - ignorance, monumental self absorption. But what I find most interesting is how it highlights his insecurity, and constant need to humiliate others as a means to make himself look good. Note how he includes in the story someone else he know, who was, of course, dumb enough to pronounce it the “wrong” way, and Trump, with his really good brain, stepped in to save this poor fellow from himself, and in the meantime show how “smart” he is. Sad!
But whatever you do, don’t send him to Natchitoches.

SEE IT: Donald Trump’s classroom visit makes Las Vegas first-grader very nervous
Wonder if he’s going to tell Dallas it’s pronounced Dahless.

Sort of reminiscent of when he (wrongly) “corrected” the vet with PTSD about the number of veteran suicides a day: “Actually it’s 22 not 20.” This one is worse though. And then when he realizes he’s not pleasing the crowd, the way he immediately shifts to the opposite of what he has been loudly proclaiming, while trying to pin his ignorance on some imaginary person–all classic Trump.

I can’t wait until he’s elected and declares the official language of San Marcos to be Swedish. " Also, “underwear will be worn on the outside so we can check.”

We were visiting some very good friends in historic Ely, Nevada only a few weeks ago. (Some of the most spectacular high country in the world, btw, in central and northwest Nevada… with some spectacular horse ranches.) And I can tell you our good friends would correct us immediately if we said “Ne-VAH-da”!
