Reporter Jim Acosta: Mr. Trump, what is 4+4?

President Trump: That’s a GREAT question, Jim...so many people are asking that question, it is honestly a beautiful question, one of the best in the world. Well, to answer that… first, you have four, what an amazing number four is. Did you know 2+2 equals…FOUR! I just learned that yesterday. Four is a really good looking number, nice and straight. It is probably one of the best numbers in the world! Better than seven or ten, I mean, honestly, what is the point of ten?! It looks so weird, just like me. You know, if I had to be a number, I would want to be a four, Hillary can be the ten. Four is how big my IQ is, did you know that? I’m so proud of myself for having an IQ of four, it’s the biggest & bestest of all IQs, better even than Einstein’s! I’m just so smart with my IQ of four honestly, why h**e me with such a high level of smarts? Speaking about h**e, who can h**e me?! I am Donald J Trump, the most honest, caring guy out there, duh. So, to answer your question, 4+4 equals = I am the best, obviously.

It's not that it's about Trump...or maybe it just went over my head, I dunno...I just didn't think it was funny. I think I'll try to rewrite it.

Here it is rewritten. I think I captured his speech style, what do you think?

Acosta...Mr. President, can you tell us what 2+2 equals?
Trump...Well, Jim, that's actually a good question. Quite a difference for such a f**e news agency. Is that a trick question? So, what is 4 + 4? Let me say this...
Acosta...Sir, we just want to hear your answe....
Trump...excuse me...excuse me...I wasn't finished. 4+4 equals...you know, they made fun of my hands being small but they're not...my hands are just fine...fantastic...I've got fantastic hands...nice hands...very nice...but back to your question...what does 4 + 4 equal? You know we only have 8 fingers on our hands...that's true...we have 2 thumbs which are NOT fingers. Democrats think we have 10 fingers...You won't hear f**e news CNN talk about that, Jim...
Acosta...Sir, can we drop the f**e news thin...
Trump...Jim.....Jim....don't interrupt me...be nice. So, the answer is 8...an unbelievable number 8...8 is one of the best...I surround myself with the best numbers. You didn't think I knew that one about the 8 fingers ad 2 thumbs did you? But I did...we got 10 toes but not 10 fingers...if you want to get technical...I can be technical...I'm great at being technical. Everybody loves me...why? because I'm a technical kind of guy. Who's next?
