Watch the full "Axios on HBO" interview with President Trump - Axios

Full Interview at link.

I have no idea what to say other than that when I watched the interview this morning, I thought it was a spoof.

1. The COVID charts he shows seem surreal

2. His responses to the thousands of Americans dying is...callously lacking empathy, at best. Though, downright psychotic might fit here more aptly.

3. The John Lewis stuff is creepy: Narcissistic responses and weird paranoia as well.


For those who'd rather read than watch here are a couple different sources providing recaps.

I have to admit, this is the most bizarre moment of the Trump presidency. Who on the Trump Team thought it was a good idea to do this? :confused:

Complete dip****. Everything you pointed out plus more on this:

Last week Trump was criticized for saying he wished Ghislaine Maxwell well after she had been arrested on charges of child sex trafficking.

When challenged on that, Trump doubled down and fueled conspiracy theories suggesting that her former boyfriend Jeffrey Epstein didn’t commit suicide in jail last year.

“Her friend or boyfriend was either killed or committed suicide in jail. She’s now in jail. Yeah I wish her well, I’d wish you well, I’d wish a lot of people well. Good luck, let them prove somebody was guilty.”

Trump continued: “Her boyfriend died in jail and people are still trying to figure it out, was it a suicide, was he killed, and I do wish her well. I’m not looking for anything bad for her.”

He wishes someone well that his own FBI has indicted on child sex trafficking. Not only a complete dip**** but a sick perv as well.
 
"In my great and unmatched wisdom"... we have complete failure, lack of any sense of empathy, avoidance of any responsibility for really anything, claims of hollow success from falsehoods, and an attitude as if the world is out to get him.

... sigh.

Across similar threads the defense of this interview is tepid at best. They still think Trump crushed the Wallace interview. Trump acted like his chart were all new to him. As far as his advisors, they have been reported to buy DC cable airtime to placate Trump.

Yeah, I saw the whole thing this AM and twice Trump questioned the manner of Epstein’s death.

Not sure if I concur with the OP as to this being the most bizarre incident, there have been so many and many more to follow, I’m afraid.

He questions it yet has the power to actually put a thorough investigation into the matter but doesn't and we all know why.

Well at this point, if the world really IS out to get him, they have a long list of damn good reasons.
 
Trump can say anything! At this point in his presidency he is up 7 points on Obummer!
 
Remember. Sarah Cooper doesn't change a single word, and is all in Trump's own voice, in her Tik-Toks of Trump. Though Trump's lies and actions are only getting worse, they have all been obvious while he was running for nomination and before.

No need to change anything, but sometimes I do find myself double checking to be sure he actually said something that dumb. And, guess what? He did.

Recently Trump has more often been telling two lies or more in the same sentence than ever before. You can't keep up with the guy. There's where Trump has something in common with Einstein. They've not yet made what can measure the frequency X severity of His lies, just like unable to prove Einstein theories for lack of yet developed measurement technology.

I couldn't watch the entire thing. It was embarrassing. The interviewer kept on asking Trump about his sources. What studies is Trump talking about? Who are these people? Why is death proportional to the population of the people the wrong stat? Why is that so wrong to send all registered voters an application? Trump is apparently unaware that mail-in-voting has been happening since the Civil War.

At this point, I am leaning toward voting for Biden or writing in Anthony Fauci's name for President.
 
You libturds just don't understand the MASTER stroke of super geniousity from our most exalted stable genius! The mighty orange American superhero Trump, deftly showed up the fake news and enemy of the people by running circles around the interviewer! It was 3d Chess played at a level NOBODY HAS EVER SEEN BEFORE!!!

Our ultra patriot, giant of a man president is the greatest American to have ever graced the earth with his saintly orange glow! You libruls should be thanking your anti god for the greasiest, er I mean greast American SUPERHERO, EVER!

Dig this ACTUAL photo of Trump on his way to work, rolling over the crushed skulls of libtards! The FAKE NEWS media didn't edit out the true Trumpiness of the photo! You can now go have patriotgasms over it. You know you want to! Dumb libruls, you're SO DOOMED in November, Trump will probably only leave old sleepy Joe maybe one state, two at best, lol!!!! :2wave:

Oh and the virus is a hoax, cooked up by the Chinese democratic party. Libruls are just so dumb they are actually dying over a non existent hoax, you can't make this stuff up!

Makes as much sense as any defense of Trump I've yet encountered anyway....
 
The biggest takeaway from the Axios interview for me was this: When Trump spews some total BS, rather than simply looked surprised and move on the next question on the list, the interviewer simply has to say "Please explain your answer." This was brilliant. It took Trump totally by surprise. No reporter has said "please explain" to Trump. He then proceeds to put both feet in his mouth and he hashes out some more nonsensical BS.

This could be a brilliant strategy for Biden during the debates. I can hear it now:

"Mr. Biden, your response?"

"Response? No, I don't need to respond to that horse hockey. In fact I invite the president to expand on his answer. Please tell us more about how your response to the pandemic has been awesome. I'll yield my time."

Yep. Trump was playing 5-D chess and that dumbass reporter was still stuck in the 1990's when presidents were expected to be logical and somewhat adherent to reality. I mean, damn, this "it is what it is" completely blows away, "It depends on your definition of is."

Whodda thunk that all the conservatives ever wanted was to be represented by a bigger liar than Bill Clinton?

He's just DREAMY isn't he? How can y'all just not gush over such a manly man in charge? He makes me feel justfied in my fear and hatred of nasty dark folks! His whiteness that shows around the edges of the orange war paint make me feel warm and fuzzy inside. I mean how did we ever survive a brown president?

Yeah it's hard to believe; in fact I would say impossible if I wasn't forced to confront the reality every day, that to these guys, he is a true "hero", it boggles the mind.... :roll:

Trump's perverted nature shines through once again.
