Trump Finally Weighs in on Controversial Shark vs. Electrocution Debate
Donald Trump on Sunday weighed in on the crucial issue of whether he would rather be electrocuted by the battery of a sinking ship or jump in the water to face a shark. The answer may surprise you.
In a soliloquy on batteries for electric vehicles, including ships, he pondered what would happen if such a boat were to sink and the battery would submerge.
...
“It must be because of MIT, my relationship with MIT, very smart, I say, what would happen if the boat sank from its weight, and you have this tremendously powerful battery, and the battery is now underwater and there’s a shark that’s approximately 10 yards over there,” he said as MAGA supporters listened intently. “By the way, a lot of shark attacks lately. Did you notice this? A lot of sha…”
...
“So there is a shark 10 yards from the boat, ten yards… or here,” he said. “Do I get electrocuted if the boat is sinking, water goes over the battery, the boat is sinking? Do I stay on top of the boat and get electrocuted, or do I jump over by the shark and not get electrocuted?”
...
“He didn’t know. He said: ‘Nobody has ever asked me that question.’ I said, ‘I think it’s a good question. I think there is a lot of electric current coming through that water,’” Trump said. “But you know what I would do if there is a shark or you get electrocuted? I’ll take electrocution every single time.* I’m not getting near the shark.”
You're viewing a single thread.
For a moment I thought he would have expressed concern about the effects of such a battery on the fragile ecosystem and the endangered species in it. But no, all he did is combine his ignorance about electricity and sharks to formulate this moronic thought.
He mentioned his "relationship with MIT" as well just before spewing out that gem. Was that really him trying to sound smart?
His uncle John Trump was a professor at MIT. Somehow that makes him a genius and gives him a relationship to MIT.
I also have a physicist relative connected to a prestigious institution and I'm a moron.
I mean he inherited everything he owns. He must be thinking that knowledge works the same way.
Ironically, by being aware that you are a moron, you are no longer a moron.
Well I'm sure as hell not a physicist. I didn't even finish college.
Edit: How did I manage to bring that up twice in one thread?
It you were a physicist, you could read minds and tell the future!
... or is that those doctors?
I know someone who saw Neil Armstrong once,which pretty much makes me the moon.
