Donald Trump spoke to reporters today and opined over the audacity of him not being able to commit war crimes and he was just wondering “why we have to be very gentle with their cultural institutions” while referring to Iran. Now, you probably think that after that he toned it down so he wouldn’t appear to be an inexperienced, amateurish buffoon, but you’d be wrong.
Trump went on to claim that he knows “all 3 million” Greek-Americans with the Prime Minister of Greece seated next to him. Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis seems to have a better grasp of the English language than President Stable Genius does, by the way.
“We have a tremendous Greek population. Over 3 million people as I understand it,” Trump said. “That’s fantastic. I really feel I know most of them. I think I know all of them, come to think of it.”

Trump needs to come up with a new routine because, at this point, he’s just regurgitating a lie from last year when he held a controversial press conference with Irish politician Taoiseach Leo Varadkar. “You are certainly one of the leading countries in terms of people moving and living in the United States,” Trump said at the time. “We have millions of Irish, and I think I know most of them because they’re my friends. We love the Irish.”
He knows everybody, you guys! Trump knows more Greek people than the Prime Minister of Greece. Who falls for his schtick anyway? You’d have to part of a cult to buy what he’s selling. Oh.
