cuz there's no way anyone else would tweet for him...celebrities, politicans, and the like a.l.w.a.y.s. do their own tweeting.
Good catch Doc!

Although such a thing is of course possible, what would be his motive for doing that? I can't imagine that he'd deem such a thing to be important enough to subcontract out. I also can't imagine that he'd trust anyone else to accurately encapsulate what he wants to say.

Is this a difficult premise to accept considering that it is a common practice?

I love that our human wainscotting believes this somehow counters Trump's visibly historical record on Twitter. My Lord.

Cam this happened to come up on my YouTube feed. I don't know if you posted about this on the thread here.

Huh. Maybe that's why he's golfing so much, so he can link up with his dealers. I'd imagine at this point he's, no pun intended, blowing through a massive amount of amphetamines and come-down opiates (nice catch on the slurring in the YouTube video).

And, boy, this isn't terrifying (timestamped the doc's statement on judgement):

Hi I did do a brief search on the doctor before posting that. He seems legit enough. I only watched the video once and if I am not mistaken he discusses snorting Adderall? I had no idea that was a thing.

When you started this thread, I thought you were grasping at straws. I don't think that any more because too much adds up. Yeah, the slurring of words? Him using Adderall and Cocaine on the Apprentice when he had to read lines? These are things I had no idea about. It makes too much sense based on my armchair observations of Trump.

I also don't know how to time stamp videos. If/when you have a moment could you explain how to do that for me? No hurry.

Jersey Girl,

Timestamping is easy. If you’re right-handed, all you do is double click the video where you want to stop it, and also immediately point quickly with your left hand at the screen. This “stamps” the video at the exact moment you want to copy the url. Then you just click, hold, and drag the video to the url bar while still maintaining your pointing with the left hand. Super easy stuff.

No wonder I couldn't get it to work. I totally left out the pointing part.

Why am I pointing my finger at the screen like a doofus? Can my computer see me? Is my left finger magic or something? Come on. Yah makin' me crazy with this. :eek:

You're trying to make an ass out of me, right? I can do that all on my own.
