    “Who is the first buyer?” one of the reporters asked.

    “Me,” Trump quipped.

    “The second?” the reporter pushed on.

    “I don’t know, but I’m the first buyer. It’ll be out in … less than two weeks. Pretty exciting, right?” the president asked.

    First of all, why would he be the first buyer of an express residency card when he’s already a citizen? Fucking moron.

    Second, “it’s happening in two weeks” is Trumpspeak for “it’s literally never going to happen.”

      Residual salesman brain.

      Trump: I am awesome, I bought this thing, it is awesome, you will be awesome if you buy it too.

      It bears no relationship to … making any kind of sense, because it is literally a hustle, a psychological manipulation tactic.

      He is just saying salesman words, meant to encourage buy in.

      Has no relation to reality, the truth, making sense, etc.

      … But, it works on rubes, dullard marks, cult members, weak willed / low self esteem people with decent reliability.

      These are just more Trump University or Trump Steaks to him.

      It doesn’t work.

      The right would celebrate that it was ‘triggering teh libs’.

      You can’t beat someone who is only playing to get a rise out of you.

        Kamala got fox news to talk about her policies by advocating anti price gouging legislation. Shame she abandoned that policy so quickly
