Podcast Hosts Laugh in Trump’s Face as He Struggles to Defend Rambling
Donald Trump absolutely flailed during an appearance on a podcast where the hosts openly mocked the former president for his bullshit answers. During an hour-and-a-half-long interview on Flagrant, a comedy podcast hosted by stand-up comedians Andrew Schulz and Akaash Singh, Trump spoke so incoherently that the hosts started to laugh at the Republican presidential nominee.At one point, Singh asked Trump to speculate about who was responsible for his assassination attempt. As Trump embarked on his nonanswer, he became so blatantly incoherent he had to outright explain his own disjointed speech.“You know, I do a thing called the weave,” Trump started to explain. “And there are those that are there fair that say, ‘This guy is so genius,’ and then others would say, ‘Oh he rambled.’ I don’t ramble.” Trump claimed he actually needed an “extraordinary memory” to get so off topic.“They don’t give you credit for that,” Schulz said, laughing, “that you can go all the way over here, and then get back.”“I can go so far here, or there,” Trump said. “And I can come back to exactly where I started.” As the interviewers cackled, it became clear that Trump—as ridiculous as his answers were—was being entirely serious about how impressive his “weaving” was. Trump continued to explain the weave by repeating exactly what he had already said: “And some people think it’s so genius, but the bad people, what they say is, ‘You know, he was rambling.’”“Yeah, you really weaved your way out of answering my question. Twice, ” Singh noted. Later in the interview, Trump spoke so incoherently that the hosts started to openly laugh at the Republican presidential nominee’s “weave.”“Dwight Eisenhower was sort of a moderate, General Eisenhower. Did you know that they had 8 percent generals president of the United States? Eight percent were generals, 92 percent were politicians, and then you had Trump,” Trump said. “You see, that’s a weave.”As Trump tried to explain why he had even started to talk about Eisenhower, the hosts snickered, and Trump seemed to grow more and more confused. “You gotta be sharp,” Trump said. “If you’re not sharp you’re dead.” At another point, Schulz just couldn’t hold it together when Trump called himself “basically a truthful person.”Trump’s disastrous appearance comes as his team launches criticism at Kamala Harris, attacking the vice president for appearing on a (far more popular) podcast in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene.

During an hour-and-a-half-long interview on Flagrant, a comedy podcast hosted by stand-up comedians Andrew Schulz and Akaash Singh, Trump spoke so incoherently that the hosts started to laugh at the Republican presidential nominee.
At one point, Singh asked Trump to speculate about who was responsible for his assassination attempt. As Trump embarked on his nonanswer, he became so blatantly incoherent he had to outright explain his own disjointed speech.
“You know, I do a thing called the weave,” Trump started to explain. “And there are those that are there fair that say, ‘This guy is so genius,’ and then others would say, ‘Oh he rambled.’ I don’t ramble.”
Trump claimed he actually needed an “extraordinary memory” to get so off topic.
“They don’t give you credit for that,” Schulz said, laughing, “that you can go all the way over here, and then get back.”
“I can go so far here, or there,” Trump said. “And I can come back to exactly where I started.”
