Donald Trump still doesn’t have a comeback to Kamala Harris calling him weird.

After stewing in Tim Walz’s “weird” label for several weeks, Donald Trump has finally cooked up a comeback: No, you.

“You know, he said we’re weird,” Trump told a small crowd in York, Pennsylvania, on Monday during an event that was supposed to focus on the economy. “That J.D. and I are weird. I think we’re extremely normal people.”

I love that the weird label is the one that really hit the Republicans hard.
Fucking weirdos.
- It should also be mentioned that it is weird that being called “weird” gets under their skin so much
  
  Yeah like someone called me weird, or even better queer, I would thank them for the complement. Why yes, I am somewhat unusual!
- It's simple really, their entire worldview relies on them being the "normal" ones and the "others" being the ones they make fun of.
  Calling them weird forces them to think about it, just for a second, and that second of thought short circuits them just long enough for it to get through and it makes them feel terrible. They immediately drive it away of course, but there was that brief moment of clarity before they shoved it back down.
- Because they don’t understand properly descriptive terms like “fascist”.
  
  "Trump & Vance, the weird fascists"
- It's weird how they are impacted so strongly by weird. It was this weak insult the ended up being so incredibly based and true that it ended up sticking despite anyone's aversion. They owned the word the second it was used against them, but it wasn't a voluntary ownership... They just keep railing against it like morons, digging themselves deeper and deeper.

Calling yourself extremely normal is very weird
- The illusive size extra medium.

Pro-tip: normal people don't have to go around claiming to be normal.
- But he isn't just normal he is extremely normal.
  
  Abnormally normal
  
  Definitely a very stable genius.

It's amazing how much this has gotten inside his head.
This and the couches.
- The only thing that got inside his head more than the couches (and the "weird" moniker) is Vance getting into the couches.
  
  Nobody is ever going to see Vance sitting on a couch again and not immediately think “couchfucker”

“We’re like you, we’re exactly like you,” the Epstein-socializing, family-separating, woman-hating, millionaire former reality TV star and convicted felon said about himself and his vice presidential pick, J.D. Vance, who became the target of an online joke that he had screwed a couch.
You know the thing that gets him the most is millionaire
- "You know, he said we’re weird,” Trump told a small crowd in York, Pennsylvania
  Trump is a crowd size queen

"Any man who must say, 'I am normal,' is not a normal man."
Tywin Lannister

Any man who must say "I am normal" is not truly normal.
- Same shit stain said he was a "very stable genius".
  That one still makes me laugh. He's a dumb motherfucker.

Lmao I fucking LOVE that journalists and editors everywhere are taking the “weird” thing and running with it.
- and "small crown!"

Give it a few years, and the various factions of the creepy weirdo party:

Not only is he the most humble, he's also extremely normal.
- He is actually weirdly normal. Like so ultra normal, he’s quite weird that way.
  
  Think you're really righteous? Think you're pure in heart? Well, I know I'm a million times as ~~humble~~ normal as thou art

Pro tip, before you tell the press that you’re not weird, push the rotting breakfast sausages and cereal out of frame.

When you have to tell people you are "normal", it's a big tell that you are, WEIRD, not normal.
- And not the good kind of weird that wears the term as a badge of honor, but the bad kind of weird that verges on creepy with how much it insists that it isn't weird.
- Truth with implications.

I’m like the normalest person you’ve ever met. In fact I did a normalcy test and I passed it with flying colours.
- It was so strange, the most normal the guy ever saw. Outrageously normal he said. Almost unusually normal.
- Ah that's funny, I thought leaders were supposed to be extraordinary. Why would we want to elect a regular Joe to office?
  
  Im so normal they say I’m so - and then the doctor, wonderful doctor he said “Sir, it’s a miracle! There are so many un-normal” - we call them un-normal now you know - it’s very terrible what they’re doing. He came up to me, tears in his eyes and says “you’re so normal we’ve never seen anyone more normal”. And could you believe it, Crooked Joe is not normal. He’s un-normal

He spent hours in the shower coming up with tbis comeback, and it's not even good

And I am extremely weird... and proud.
- "Weird" feels like it'd only an insult if you're obsessed with conformity or you believe there should be in (normal) and out (weird) groups that dictate how you're allowed to exist in society.
  Makes the word a pretty good litmus test, too. If you tell someone they're kinda weird, and they're that upset about it... maybe a red flag?
  
  Well said. Everyone is at least a little weird, and it's pretty relatable feeling. But when your whole lifestyle is based around conformity and hatred of non conformers, it becomes a grave insult.

Weird ass POS.
- We should string together all the criticisms that have really cut him into one mega criticism.
  He's a small-handed, vulgar, uncouth weirdo who sucks at golf.

The best normal. what a weird throwback.

Very criminal, very weird

Not just normal. Normal to the X-X-Xtreme! (Cue 90's guitar riff)

Trump: I'm rubber, and you're glue, and the things you say bounce off of me because ALL YOUR TEMPERAMENTS ARE TRASH AND I'M THE ONLY ONE THAT'S CALM!!!
\ Lester: Mr. Trump, your head is now literally a giant red steam whistle.
\ Trump: ... My microphone isn't working.

What a weird thing to say.

The best bit of the article is when he somewhat weirdly claimed to not know who President Trump was.

We're bigly normal!

Did you ever see him go on the stage and go, like, crazy?
No, but I’ve seen Trump go, like, crazy

Am too, but YOU are!

Nothing the least bit weird about this bunch of maga-ty dumbasses. No sirree.

Greetings fellow normal people! What a typical day we're having.
- The sun is shining, the birds are singing, and my pseudopods are moist and twitching!

I'm not ~~crazy~~ weird! My mother had me tested!

More like extremely anoying

What an extremely weird headline. Modern politics suck so much.

What even qualifies as a "normal" speech from Trump at this point?
- The abnormal is normal when it comes to Trump.

I'm noRmal and I goT a paPer proving it!!

Funny thing about trump is that he is even bad at right wing politics. He is always insisting on how important economy is whilst in the reality, US indices rose far more during Biden.
