Demsā€™ ā€œweirdā€ attacks are getting under Trumpā€™s skin. ā€œOf course heā€™s upset,ā€ a source toldĀ Rolling Stone

As Democrats continueĀ theirĀ rhetorical strategyĀ of trash-talkingĀ Donald Trump, his running mate J.D. Vance, and other ā€œweirdā€ and ā€œcreepyā€ conservative policymakers attempting to thrust the country into the dark ages, the former president has become increasingly furious at the messaging overtaking media outlets and internet memes.

During a Thursday interview with conservative radio host Clay Travis, Trump attempted to reverse the criticism and said that Democrats were ā€œthe weird ones.ā€ He insisted, ā€œNobodyā€™s ever called me weird. Iā€™m a lot of things, but weird Iā€™m not. And Iā€™m upfront. And heā€™s not either, I will tell you. J.D. is not at all. They are.ā€

ā€œWeā€™re not weird people,ā€ Trump added. ā€œWeā€™re weā€™re actually just the opposite.

    Hey. Sorry to have pissed you off so bad. Not my intention.

    Hereā€™s where I am coming from. OP posted an article. It contains a direct quote from George W Bush stating that Trumpā€™s inauguration speech was weird shit. You went and found another article stating the exact same thing as OPs and said you had no idea that Bush had said that. I was trying to indicate that the direct quote was clearly stated in the original article. You finding another source is redundant is all I was trying to say. Itā€™s a direct quote from a tweet of a former President. We donā€™t need it to be fact checked. He said it. Itā€™s real.

    Have a good one, friend.

      So the best version of your thesis is telling a bunch of people on a boat that arenā€™t wearing swimwear or planning on swimming that the water is good for swimming.

      To be clear, you were being a snotty shit head and didnā€™t have to say anything at all. But then you did anyway, and it was pointless. So pointless that you didnā€™t even say it clearly enough to be understood.

      Like my comment to the bush quote guy with a source is for all the people who clicked on the comments without wanting to read the rolling stone article. Your comment is for no one.

        Yep. For all the people who came here to comment without wanting to read an article, you sure did them a solid by posting another article for them to read. Sorry to be a snotty shithead and to upset you so much. Have a good one, friend.
