This terrible terrible man.

So citizens protesting police brutality are like butter to be cut into, eh? Beautiful scene, was it? Way to tin ear there, Donnie. I guess we’re supposed to be thankful you didn’t reach for the making omlette/breaking eggs metaphore.
It’s not a good sign when your head of state gets a stiffy while watching people being tear gassed and shot with rubber bullets; he might need a stronger fix next time.
Stormy Daniels could be the authority to consult here. After all, Henry Kissinger once said “power is a great aphrodisiac.” Could be the only way Fatso Bonespurs can get it up these days. “More tear gas… More! More! More!…. Aaahhh! Yesssssssssssssssss.. !”
Does he mean ‘like a hot knife through butter’? He keeps getting things wrong, quotes, adages, it’s like he has some vague memory of something he heard somewhere, but can’t articulate it.
“Like a hot knife through butter” makes a lot more sense, but I’ve seen “like a knife through butter” or even “like butter” (or “like buttah”) often enough. He does get adages wrong all the time.
