Former President Donald Trump, speaking in Las Vegas on Sunday, seemed to compare the dangers of batteries for electric vehicles and sharks, just days after three people, including two Alabama teens, were injured in two Florida shark attacks.

“I say, what would happen if the boat sank from its weight, and you have this tremendously powerful battery, and the battery is now underwater and there’s a shark that’s approximately 10 yards over there,” Trump said.

“By the way, a lot of shark attacks lately, did you notice? I watched some guys justifying it today. ‘Well they weren’t really that angry. They bit off the young lady’s leg because of the fact, that they were not hungry, but they misunderstood who she was,’” Trump continued.

“These people are crazy. He said there’s no problem with sharks they just didn’t really understand a young woman swimming out and got decimated and other people too.”

Ultimately, Trump said he would stay on the boat and risk electrocution rather than a shark.

“Do I get electrocuted or do I jump over by the shark? I’m not going near the shark.”

Mountain Brook teens Lulu Gribbin and McCray Faust were injured Friday in one of two shark attacks in a span of 90 minutes along about four miles of beach in Walton County.

Then tried to make out that he was deprived as a child cos his parents didn’t have satellite tv. Just foot in mouth every day.

He's following on a man born with his own foot in his mouth, he's trying his best okay?

Seeing highlights from the Dayton Air Show this weekend, I've seen a couple videos of the US Air Force Band of Flight having to perform in their jungle cammies and combat boots.

It was pushing 100° yesterday. Is that really loving necessary? Like, does some senior NCO or somebody somewhere get a promotion for getting his trombone player heat stroke? :wtc:

They were playing an NSync ditty when they started up on Saturday morning. That was a weird moment on several levels.
