Trump: 'I love to read.'

Remember when we had a President who loved reading so much that even a massive terrorist attack wasn’t enough to get him to put down My Pet Goat?

That’s not fair. I mean, that’s a hell of a good book.

If he has time to play golf, have extravagant dinners, spend millions of our dollars flying back and forth to Florida, or evacuate his bowels, he has time to read.

Am I not alone in thinking @Nightic may never show up again?

When I was small adults would try to hold in their snickering over a title like that, mostly they failed so you knew it could be taken as a little naughty.

If that were true (and I have my doubts) if he admitted that he likes to unwind with a western, actual readers would relate to that much better than his “I read stuff” response.

Aircraft carriers could make some nice ocean front real estate, condos, apartments, all that airstrip space would make a nice community garden. . . .

This time I’m sure Trump was being honest for once

I agree. That’s the thing, even if it isn’t true, it would be a better lie than the one he told. Trump is a terrible liar, a terrible manipulator. He always says what he thinks people want to hear and he gets it wrong most of the time. Never being held accountable for lying means not only never learning to tell the truth, but also never learning to lie well.

If I had to guess I’d say I don’t think he reads much of anything, not those executive orders he’s signing. But if I found out he was actually re-reading James Bond books for the nth time, I’d believe it that he just didn’t know how to make that into a good answer.

On the other hand, maybe he’s reading a lot of Celebrity Apprentice slashfic, and that he actually should keep to himself.
