And ‘den I said, “we had duh biggest landslide popular vote win evah last year, which naturally led to my biggest electoral vote landslide in history…” – but anyways, it’s about time youse deadbeatz started payin’ your own bills…to America. You owe us all about 30 trillion dollars in back payments for our military and stuff. And it’s time you paid up so we can all Make Murka Grape Gin…

He mentioned yesterday that the toilet paper in the Secretary General’s office was “like sandpaper,” so we’re just off to a fantastic start.

ETA I saw that yesterday but can’t confirm it today. Might have been a joke. He’s certainly crass enough, though.

Did he really use that on the floor of the UN?

And have we gotten to the part yet where he pounds the podium with his shoe and screams “WE WILL BURY YOU!!”???
