You have to admit that this is stunning in it’s simplicity. Why didn’t we ever think of this before? Umm….because it’s analogous to eliminating pollution by going back to live in caves?
I just can't get enough of this clip. If that's wrong, I don't want to be right. He thinks it over, then earnestly suggests we just…stop using computers entirely. Love it. https://t.co/UQK175YbYw

This isn’t the first time that he’s weighed in on eliminating computers. He thought that taking them out of airplanes was a good idea for a while, too. Remember when he said planes were “too complex to fly?” I agree. I think we should drive planes from city to city and float them across bodies of water. Remember when he asked about “goddamn steam” with respect to catapults and air craft carriers? And the warship Wasp doesn’t even have catapults? He must have watched some old pirate movie and gotten the idea about naval battles from that.
Trump doesn’t know to use a computer, and the only use he ever had for computers or the internet was when he was on Twitter. Now that that’s gone — fine, shut it all down. Who cares?
The best part is
1) He thinks computers sing
2) He has no idea what he's youngest son's name is#Barron— Jimijams (@Jimi_Jammin) June 7, 2021
Isn’t it great that a man who can’t run a computer at all is able to ascertain somebody else’s expertise is at “genius” level? Probably he saw Barron playing a video game and thought that was just the darnedest thing.
What a great way to kick off the week, tech advice from Donald Trump. Go back to the abacus, America! You’ll be glad you did.

Wow. Idiocy and irony just crashed together at light speed. My first thoughts ran to a couple of memes – one was of Yoda saying “Strong is the stupid in this one!” and another with the hairless bug-eyed and screaming troll saying “The stupid – it burns!” But Trump saying we need to go back to old fashioned paper for records and communication is a whole new level and this is where my first statement comes into play. He wouldn’t have been jack as a political force without his twitter feed. And his hand help computer which is what a smart phone, his “twitter machine” actually is. Hell, he still relies on the internet to rake in money from all the suckers out there.
But here’s the funny part. Without computers and the internet he’d have to resort to good old-fashioned mail! Sending out fundraising appeals to tens of millions of his supporters and regularly. Not to mention his announcements/pronouncements. That kind of thing would cost the kind of money that he’d NEVER spend. And as for paper and getting his message out by mail – he forced an asshole into the top position as USPS specifically to fuck up mail delivery! Idiocy and irony. Crashing together at light speed in vacuum of Trump’s empty head.
Perfect description and summation Denis!
Trump came from a protected, big-funded type neighborhood … a local really smart kid was experimenting in his garage with a vacuum jar and vacuum pump, did NOT like the king of narcissism, so pulled the hose off the jar, handed it to Trump and said, “blow in here real hard”, Trump has come up short in every way since …
Nothing there that makes sense, never tells the truth because he does not know any of that stuff, too hard to read and make heads and tails of it, needs full color charts and interpreters to give him some key words that he runs with … big sharpie letters to read and reread to his adoring crowd of complete idiots …
The first half-sentence should be marked as snark.
His idea of a computer is the one they had in the media in the 50s and 60s: the big box with lots of blinking lights tended by guys (always guys) in white coats with pocket-protectors full of pens. He doesn’t get that now they’re in phones and on desks, and most people can use them without needing to know what’s inside.
I wonder if Hannity will do a repeat of his Keurig coffee maker episode where he smashes up a few grand’s worth of Apple and Microsoft products?
We just have to make sure to never let he who shall not be named in the same room with an intelligent thought (or the truth)! The result would be a matter/antimatter explosion that could destroy our galaxy!
Looking forward to the pedal powered 747, the passengers working like the galley slaves of old, the flight attendants cracking the whip.
I wonder what would happen if you told him his much-loved phone is a computer/has a computer inside it.
