First, this is who he is, a crass man who talks about sex in the most guttural way. In private, this is the way he is. So, with his lapsed sense of judgement, after going on for however long about the mic, an issue that is vital to this election, he strokes the mic stand, and his mind goes to a crude gesture. It happens when he can't filter himself.
So yes, he was pantomiming a BJ.

(8,829 posts)He showed clips of the rally where Trump was ranting and raving about the misfunctioning microphone and threatening to go backstage and beat up the people responsible. Some of the people behind him looked shocked and bewildered. One guy hung his head. A few of them got up and left. So, yeah, some of the loud louts loved it, but I think it went too far even for some people who had supported him enough to show up at his rally.

(11,543 posts)Like he was home in his bathroom. Followed by him complaining about his bad hair day.
This man is gone.
But he's still a malignant narcissist so all his dementia opps are cruel and inappropriate sexually. He has always used sex to hurt victims weaker than himself. He's a pedophile and rapist. That doesn't change even if he is demented.
So, unless his handlers actually start keeping him off stages, he's gonna say and do even worse things.

(8,413 posts)Why is he thinking about dicks so much? In public? Were there children there too, in the crowd? How would parents explain that? WTF is wrong with half of America that they love this sicko so much?

(15,584 posts)I dont have any kids, but my dad and I discuss politics and now I cant.
This is the first presidential candidate I can think of who is too creepy to discuss with a parent anymore (even for an older woman like me).
I have very good relations with my dad and he is pretty cool, but I cant discuss stuff like this with him! We sometimes discuss politics, but this too graphic!
I never expected a US election season like this.
As for kids ..well forget PG-13..he is like an R or X Rated candidate.

(121,647 posts)you'd think he'd have enough common sense to know which gestures were and weren't appropriate. How could he have not known what that looked like? It was so obvious that you have to assume he knew what he was doing and he was trying to be clever or funny, but without any filters he reverted to what a middle-school boy might consider funny.

Then point at himself with both thumbs.
. Especially since he rarely has a photo op where hes not doing the thumbs up sign, no matter how inappropriate.

(49,755 posts)that he can't do or say anything so crass that it will turn off any of his supporters. I believe he takes great pleasure in that and likes to put it the test over and over again.

(18,989 posts)If the mic was malfunctioning, how come I was able, with my crappy hearing, to understand. Every. Freaking. Word. He. Said?
I mean it, it is rare for me to understand every single word of a video, hearing aids and all, but I understood that just perfectly. Didn't even have to turn on the closed captions; every word was crystal clear.
And this seems to be happening at rally after rally? I think he's imagining things. Either that or HIS hearing is going, and he can't possibly admit that, so he has to find something else to blame.
I'm not even going to comment on the simulated b.j., because everyone has already done that. What a weird ass freaking loser!
