A review of a few more critical quotes and tweets from the Tangerine Toddler leading up to his most recent claim that the most intelligent man on the planet was uninformed of a Russian campaign to pay bounties on Americans’ lives:

“I was with the president of Finland and he said… we’re a forest nation, he called it a forest nation and they spend a lot of time on raking and cleaning and doing things.” 

“They start forming off the coast of Africa, as they’re moving across the Atlantic, we drop a bomb inside the eye of the hurricane and it disrupts it. Why can’t we do that?”

“I will build a great, great wall on our southern border, and I will have Mexico pay for that wall. Mark my words.”

“[John McCain is]… not a war hero. He’s a war hero – he’s a war hero ’cause he was captured. I Like people that weren’t captured.”

“I look very much forward to showing my financials, because they are huge.”

“Sorry losers and haters, but my IQ is one of the highest – and you all know it! Please don’t feel so stupid or insecure, it’s not your fault.” [He don’t need no stinkin’ briefing…]

“What you’re seeing and what you’re reading is not what’s happening.”

“Is there a way we can do something like that by injection inside or almost a cleaning? It sounds interesting to me, so we’ll see. But the whole concept of the light, the way it kills it in one minute. That’s pretty powerful.”

“An ‘extremely credible source’ has called my office and told me that Barack Obama’s birth certificate is a fraud.” [So, who briefed you on that bit of intelligence?]

“One of the key problems today is that politics is such a disgrace. Good people don’t go into government.”

“This is an island surrounded by water, big water, ocean water.”

“On of the wettest we’ve ever seen from the standpoint of water.”

“Most politicians would have gone to a meeting like the one Don Jr. attended in order to get info on an opponent. That’s politics!” [Oh, that kind of briefing…but not on national security matters.]

“Our army manned the air, it rammed the ramparts, it took over the airports, it did everything it had to do, and at Fort McHenry, under the rockets’ red glare, it had nothing but victory.” [Okay, he’s talking about the Revolutionary War here and Fort McHenry wasn’t until the War of 1812 and the airports didn’t come along until the 20th century. Another briefing, we can only assume.]

“I’ve been briefed on every contingency you could possibly imagine (on the coronavirus). Many contingencies. A lot of positive, Different numbers, all different numbers, very large numbers, and some small numbers too.” [emphasis mine]

“I know more about ISIS than the generals do, believe me.” [Because he’s been briefed?]

“What she [Hillary Clinton] did [with Benghazi] was absolutely horrible.”

“Nobody briefed or told me…”
