Imagining that Trump on the other end just discovered Pokémon and is also infodumping about Pikachu to Vance

spoilerI just had a perfect phone call with Pikachu! Great guy. Some people are saying he likes ketchup very strongly, possibly even more than me. And we like that! We like that. Great work ethic though. They're doing thunderbolt! People say, "oh but what about volt tackle?" and I tell them it's a pretty good move too, but you just can't beat the classic thunderbolt. Who knows, Pikachu might be our next Secretary of Energy. Frankly, he has as good qualifications as Rick Scott did, and nobody knows electricity like Pikachu, I will say that. But Raichu has been treated very unfairly for many years, and it's sad. They went to Aloha or whatever and taught him how to surf, but I said "well what the hell, Pikachu does surfing since the little minigame in the Yellow! Just give Pikachu the light ball, who needs the new Raichu!" But we are doing great things with electric, I will say that.

one more Trump talking about Pikachu shitpost I feel compelled to get out

I went to Galar to meet with the great Boris Johnson for a tremendous meeting and he showed me this incredible thing, they're calling it gigantamaxing. You know what this is? They go bing bing bong on the dynamax band and then, wow, let me tell you! I saw Pikachu do the gigantimax, I turned to Boris, I said WOW, what a big guy! But they were very unfair to Boris over Galarexit, very unfair.

funny but there's no way donald trump hasn't known about pokemon since 1996

Either he's known about it since the absolute beginning or he was completely unaware of it until Barron was 5yo. No in-between.

They changed it in the west from Green to Blue! They took the money color and made it the Democrat color! Not good! I'll stick with Red.
