There's an admitted fake of him throwing a green dildo from the White House roof onto (you guessed it) a WNBA (Women's NBA ) game below.

I got the sudden insight that all can be explained if you assume he's a troll of two kinds. First, the internet troll who stirs up dissent and trouble, seemingly for the LulZ, and Second, the classic troll who exacts a toll from everyone just for getting from here to there.

Don't be distracted. Money explains everything, even if we only know the greed part. That's easy to figure. There may be dark reasons for the need, but that's не мое дело.

    The throwing of the dildo was real, but it was actually red. It was the WNBA game that gave away the ruse because there is no women's basketball; if there were, no one would watch it; and if people watched it, it wouldn't be allowed at the White House.

It's telling that there seems to be a legit explanation but Trump's first instinct is to lie even when it's not necessary.

if he says it’s fake, it’s probably true.

Trump always makes stuff up so no one should be surprised.
