Donald Trump Being Tormented By A Fly Provokes Gleefully Nasty Buzz
A fly annoying Donald Trump at a Wisconsin rally on Sunday prompted an odd digression from the Republican nominee and wiseacre comments from people on social media.
“I don’t like flies,” the former president said as he tried to shoo one away. “Get out of here, fly. Never been a big fan of flies. You don’t mind my bringing that up, do you? Anyway, this is a very aggressive sucker, this one. This one in particular is very aggressive. Like I’m gonna be aggressive for our country.”

Unhinged & delusional senior citizen from Florida with 34 felony convictions wandering the halls, ass hanging from the back of his gown, spreading lies about hurricane assistance, blaming immigrants for everything, and whining incoherently about flies.
More gimmicks and showmanship to distract from his lack of substantive policy. Under his watch, we saw rising unemployment, unchecked inflation, and a pandemic response that left hundreds of thousands of Americans dead unnecessarily. His version of “aggression” led to political…

Literally no higher brain function, is there... just whatever happens to be going on around him, whatever pops into his head.
