Of course Pumpkina** wasn't physically present. Even when the body is there the "mind" is elsewhere. Don just looked into the TV CAMERA and addressed it as if it were Pumpkina**. Remember at the 2016 repubbaccan convention when senile Clint Eastwood spoke to an empty chair as if President Obama were there? Same thing.
Well Don started out with "What is it about President Obama that really gets under your skin?" Then mentioned things like "is it because he is smarter better educated, didn't need daddy's help, he's better looking..?."
I don't know if Pumpkina** has rant raged raved popped his cork and ferociously tweeted back yet but I bet it will be a wingy dingy diatribe! A HUMDINGER! Stay tuned. See how the old man doubles down and starts off. It should be entertaining! SIGH. The depths to which we go today to find a punchline. Pumpkina** is really the best punchline there ever was.
