He thinks he's clever by getting away with publicly telling his followers that's he's actually a snake that will bite him and that they are foolish for letting him in.

Same idea as when he said he could shot someone and these people would still vote for him. He thinks they're fools and he is correct.

5. A cowboy comes to a swollen stream and a rattle snake is on a rock near the water.
Sun May 12, 2024, 08:37 AM

The snake asks the Cowboy, “Please help me get to the other side.”

“No way,” says the Cowboy. “You’ll bite me.”

“No, I promise, if you take me across, I won’t bite you,” says the snake.

Taking pity on the snake, the Cowboy carrys the snake across the stream to the other side where the snake immediately bites him.

“Why did you bite me after you promised not to?” asks the Cowboy.

The snake answers, “Because I’m a snake.”

“When somebody shows you what they are, believe them.”

Donald John has used his mouth to say all sorts of things about who he was, what he was, and what he would do (And God have mercy on the chumps who believed he was speaking the truth!). As we have seen, many of those things are untrue.

Another way of putting it is actions speak louder than words.

Wasn't directly quoting her, but that is one of the morals usually given to the snake story (which he tells very badly).And I've only had my first cup of coffee....

But I'm just more confused. Is the Snake supposed to be the Stinking Nazi?

He would never identify with the feelings of a woman so he clearly doesn't think he's the woman. But why would he tell his few remaining supporters he is a snake?

But then why would the stinking Nazi call Hannibal Lecter great? Or even call him the "late great", which implies he's dead. But he was never alive, he's a fictional character.

The man is gone off his rocker.

That's such a strange thing to identify with. But maybe it's the way of the psychopath?

"You knew I was a snake when you let me in." After being bitten. The Donald thinks it flatters him. The rubes flat don't get it.

Sun May 12, 2024, 10:57 AM

The sentence after bringing up Hannibal Lector concerns people "released in our country" that to him are undesirable.
The fictional monster Lector escapes from police captivity and it is implied he is going to have his revenge on the doctor who dealt with him in prison.

Maybe I'm thick but I don't see a correlation between immigrants and fictional monsters. I assume he is talking about immigrants.
I need an interpreter when listening to this lunatic.

Is that he is akin to monsters, demagogues, and thugs who get others to do all the important work needed to protect his pitiful orange ass.

From what he has paraded proudly before the world he actually has not a single redeeming characteristic.

Who with that record would not spend all their time making up stories and nurturing sycophancy??

Or, if a brief whisp of courage were to improbably drift by, commit suicide?

He’s a narcissist a personality type. Mental illness by definition can improve, recover narcissism is more like a brain injury it’s permanent and it stays that way. He would terrorize the other patients and suck all the air out of the room he would be very destructive on a psych unit and would delight in triggering them. He belongs in jail until he dies.
