...when I ask him to tell me the key messages he hears in a Trump speech.

Turns out it isn't wes's fault. It's just that Trump has mastered the art of speaking without conveying any meaning whatsoever:

I don't often say this but both alcohol and drugs are more worthy of your limited hours on earth and your intellectual capacity than trying to understand wes. Fly to Paris and eat too much good food and drink too much good wine and armengnac, make an investment in yourself.


yrs,
rubato

OMG... what a fucking gas bag.

But people laughed and clapped, so that made it a great speech.

At least, that's how wes would say how we should judge it.

Could anyone ever have imagined that we would hear a president speaking publicly about his lack of an organ?

et tu , rubato? (gasps wes, with his final breaths...)


...BUT SERIOUSLY, I JUST DON T LIKE YOU, SCOOTER.

I THINK THAT YOU ARE POSSIBLY THE DEVIL IN HUMAN FORM.

A DEMON, IF YOU WILL.

I HOPE THAT THIS CLEARS THINGS UP FOR YOU.

....anyway, I admire rubato in spite of the fact that he is wrong about almost everything. I admire him because he charts his own path.

he does not blindly follow "groupthink".

he has his own ideas, and wrong tho they may be, he sticks to his guns.

he isn t some two-faced deceiver.

he is an in your face believer.

vot trump, rube, vote trump, if only to annoy jim....

As I said, wes, I didn't need anything "cleared up".

I used to believe you were unable to glean any message from Trump's speeches because you were content to hear him bark away without really listening to what he was saying.

Now I understand that there was simply never any message to be gleaned - there was no "there" there, as it were. Thus I did you a disservice and so owe you an apology, as you could hardly be expected to find meaning in such gibberish.

And you may want to consider whether you are wrong about me. After all, you really have no way of knowing whether I have human form or not, do you?

Reminds me of the governor of Texas character, as portrayed to perfection by Charles Durning, from the movie "Best Little Whorehouse in Texas".  During his signature song, 'The Sidestep', he — like Trumpy-Wumpy — refuses to take a definite stand on anything, burying the issue under mounds and mounds of prime bovine excrement.

And apparently I'm not the only person to make the same connection —

Say what you will about rube, he is far too intelligent to throw away his vote just for spite. To bad you can’t say the same about yourself, wes.

What makes that President Zippy The Pinhead riff even more hilarious, is that right before he launched into it, he was bragging about what a great speaker he is :

Not exactly the Gettysburg Address, is it?
