Trump Claims Sleepy Person With No Energy Will Somehow Be Peppy Enough to Destroy Entire Country
Trump Claims That Sleepy Person With No Energy Will Somehow Be Peppy Enough to Destroy Entire CountryWASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—Donald Trump claimed on Wednesday that Joe Biden is “incredibly sleepy” and has “zero energy,” yet somehow is peppy enough to destroy life in the United States as we know it.
Speaking to Sean Hannity on Fox News, Trump attempted to explain the apparent contradiction between a person being barely sentient yet capable of singlehandedly dismantling a global superpower.
“Sleepy Joe is practically unconscious and almost doesn’t have a pulse,” Trump said. “But that’s because he has put his entire body into hibernation, like a bear.”
Trump went on to say that he had seen a documentary about bears on Animal Planet “that was so scary, every voter needs to see it.”
“This bear hibernated all winter, but then, when he woke up, he had enough energy to rip a hiker’s face off,” he said. “Just you watch. Joe Biden is conserving his energy right now, but, as sure as you’re sitting there, the minute he takes office he will rip this country’s face off.”
Trump said that, in November, the American people face a stark choice. “It’s between me, their favorite President, and an angry bear who hasn’t eaten in months,” he said.

What Trump says on a daily basis makes so little sense and is so far removed from actual reality that a few years back no one would have believed that anyone could get away with such statements. But with Trump, the surreal and the ridiculous has been "normalized."
