    I think he actually believes his statement, i believe him and his assistant to the regional president helper actually believe that ‘the average person’ is at most a lesser being that doesn’t have the level of awareness they have. And so many of the republican elected representatives of the people are willing to throw away their congressional oath to support them in their actions that it just proves their own skewed worldview.

      This is the Arrested Development banana scene.

      It’s one banana, how much could it cost, $10?

        Pretty sure they based that off of a real life press conference with “Governor Moonbeam” Jerry Brown where a reporter asked him how much a gallon of milk cost and he was like “$20?” after talking about how much of an average Joe he was or something similar. This was back in the 80s or 90s.
