This just makes no sense whatsoever. Of all the things to claim someone to be, why bother claiming this? Do they understand the meaning of the word humanitarian? It’s like they go absolutely out of their way to tell a lie.

The point is the lie, it signals loyalty, the bigger the better.

And do it as publicly as possible to really make the point.

I would so love to be a fly on the wall when the cameras have gone.

I heard the mooch say that he believes Trump dislikes many of his own sycophants and likes humiliating them. A lot of things made more sense from that lens.
