Trump […] answered a handful of questions from supporters before pausing the town hall due to the attendees requiring medical attention. At some point, Trump joked, “Personally, I enjoy this. We lose weight, you know. No, you lose weight. We could do this — lose four or five pounds.” He added, “Would anybody else like to faint? Please raise your hand.”
Whaaaat the fuck is he talking about? Glibness about his fainting attendees’ health and barely veiled annoyance at them aside, what does that even mean? What did this have to do with losing weight? Is he losing weight by having to stand longer while people are medically attended to? If that’s what he meant, it’s a weird way to flex, implying that you are fat from sitting all the time, but ok.
I think maybe it’s because the fainting was presumably because it was hot? And if you sweat enough, you can lose a couple pounds or something? Still, pretty gross.
Kinda want to displace “weird” with “gross.” Weird can be good. Gross is never good.

lol yeah he realized he inadvertently called himself fat and then said “No, you lose weight.”

Gross and creepy are more apt than weird for lots of their behaviors.
