President Trump’s extravagant, $3,000, 300-sandwich celebration of Clemson University
The Washington Post ^ | January 15, 2019 | Philip Bump

Trump says they bought "1,000 burgers" for Clemson. "It was piled up a mile high," he said.

FACT CHECK: At two inches each, a thousand burgers would not reach one mile high.

Not understanding expressions like that is a sign of mental illness.

One of the hallmarks of autism is the tendency of its victims to take things literally. For example, if one is told to "hit the road," he may go outside and strike the pavement with his fist.

I wonder if the Pest has finally given up and taken to hiring autistics to write their sphincter swipe.

I think the Washington Compost has mile high fever of a profane kind. They need to stay out of airplanes and come home to bed with their wives.

lol

There was a guy on TV who said, if you took all the people, in all the churches who were sleeping in the pews on Sunday morning, they’d be a good deal more comfortable.

I almost fell off the couch laughing.

They’ll do anything say anything to hammer Trump over inconsequential things. Big deal, he spent HIS money for fast food for those players. Trump is the only reason for WaPo’s existence.

In Soviet Russia, burger makes a mile out of You!!!

I think it’s awesome they did this. I hope it gets picked up everywhere. I hope CNN and ABC and CBS and MSNBC run with it.

I hope Brian Williams leads with it.

He(PDJT) can really get their shorts in a bind if he were to claim WashPost was a competent, fact filled, honest newspaper with well written, timely articles without a Liberal slant.

Then run his OWN fact check....AND publish it...

They are like spoiled hurt children. Everything has to go their way or nothing is good in life. It’s 100% or nothing.

TDS reaches new heights every day. Fake news is obsessed with Trump.

As long as they can keep this sort of nonsense on the front burner no one is going to be looking at the crimes committed by Obama, Hillary and that entire set of anti-American power hungry traitors.

A one mile stack of burgers would make DC capsize into the Potomac. The Washington Post should know that. BTW. The Washington Post isn't a real post, either. Posts aren't made of paper. But real posts could be used in a border fence, barrier, wall, etc.

I guess figures of speech are fair game when you're trying to slime someone every which way to Wednesday.
