He also pledged to keep attendees’ taxes low and doubled down on his desire to have immigrants from “nice” countries, like Norway and Denmark, come to the US.

Suggesting that Americans inject disinfectants into their veins. Declaring that people believe he’s been treated worse than Abraham Lincoln. Claiming wind turbines are killing whales. Saying environmental regulations are forcing people to flush their toilets “10 times, 15 times as opposed to once.” Over the course of Donald Trump’s 77 years on earth, he’s had a lot of uniquely bizarre comments come out of his mouth. That streak continued over the weekend, as he reportedly suggested to a group of billionaires that Joe Biden had literally shit on a piece of White House furniture.

From the original NY Times article quoted by Vanity Fair:

Mr. Trump blamed his successor, Mr. Biden, for the influx of migrants and mocked him and aides for what Mr. Trump said were bad decisions made around the Resolute Desk, which has been used by two dozen presidents.

“The Resolute Desk is beautiful,” Mr. Trump said. “Ronald Reagan used it, others used it.”

He then denigrated Mr. Biden, sounding disgusted, according to the attendee: “And he’s using it. I might not use it the next time. It’s been soiled. And I mean that literally, which is sad.”

The attendee who witnessed the moment said that dinner guests laughed and that Mr. Trump’s remark was interpreted as the former president saying that Mr. Biden had defecated on the desk.

      Yup. He absolutely shat that desk. No doubt whatsoever.

      That shit didn’t just come out of nowhere (if you’ll pardon the pun); he’s throwing it at Biden because he actually did it himself.

      In addition, the rest of the article goes on to cite various instances through the years of Trump’s overconcern with toilets and personal waste as symbols of domination and power. It’s not just this one statement, it’s many acts along the same lines.

      So even if I could ever doubt Trump did this – and I cannot, lol – the fact remains that most people do not weaponize their own waste at all (!!!) yet here’s Trump acting throughout his life as though he could and would.

      And then there’s the rumored “pee tape” of him enjoying some hookers and golden showers in a Russian hotel room, lol.

      Trump absolutely shat on that desk. He’s just stupid enough to think anyone believes the pointing finger when it’s just himself alone with the constant references to waste.
