Trump: "No, I don't cook, my servants cook, good food, food to eat, great food, food cooked by skilled servants. No, I don't know what you call what I'm eating, but it was cooked by good servants, chefs from the highest ranks, good food, the best food. I'm POTUS, I don't cook, I could cook you know, but I don't cook, my servants cook good food."

Yeah...nicely done, very creative you sound like your in the 6th grade. Can you guess what the annual salary of a Russian or Chinese “comrade” is? 11k & 6k respectively....and China has just imposed the most authoritarian system on its’ populous called “social credit.” Maybe you two intellectual savants should move to Eurasia where you can have a birdseye view of your chosen masters.
