Trump in Wisconsin: Shows up late, drools over male athlete's leg, says he'd rather be watching TV [View all]
Trump traveled to Wisconsin on Friday to reassure struggling farmers that he had their backs.
But after bragging about his Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, thirsting over a young male athlete and blaming NBC for the rain, the president said the quiet part out loud.
“I don’t need this. I got elected. I don’t know, what the hell do I have to be here for?” he asked the group of participants who had gathered patiently for the agriculture roundtable in Chippewa Falls.
“I got elected. I’m here because I like the farmer. I mean, when you think about it, I guess there’s a lot of truth to that - I could be home right now at the beautiful White House, enjoying watching somebody else on television.”
After being an hour late, he explained that he had done an interview with NBC and then blamed the network because it rained. He later praised speed skater Jordan Stolz, who won a gold medal at the Milan Winter Olympics—which Trump then took and wore—before bizarrely telling the audience: “I forgot to touch his leg.”
