and since you point out he can't really read, it was probably read to him as a bedtime story by his degenerate father.

I wouldn't be surprised if he watches spy movies on TV thinking that they're how-to documentaries.

originally what I read was he could kidnap Putin. searching now, it appears that all the news agencies, such as they are, corrected themself.

here's what he's saying now.
