Transcript of Trump's Toast at Ivanka's 2009 Wedding (disgusting)

From Daily Kos

On October 25, 2009 Donald Trump’s daughter, Ivanka, married Jared Kushner at Trump’s golf course in Bedminster, New Jersey. I recently obtained a transcript of Trump’s toast at the wedding reception. It is reprinted in its entirety below.

“Okay, everybody, listen up. Listen up. Good to see so many nice people here and isn’t this a beautiful golf course? I built it in record time, by the way, and no debt. Totally debt free. Built it with Filipino workers. Great people, the Filipinos. Hard workers and when they complain about low wages, you can’t understand them. Last year this course was ranked Number One in the world by people who rank things. And I love people who rank things. They’re amazing people. How ‘bout this food? Great stuff. Trump Steaks. Trump Wine. Trump Water. Trump Radicchio. Trump Truffles. Trump Aspic. Beautiful food. And if you’re feeling a little extra peppy, that’s because the room is filled with my newest product — Trump Oxygen. What a turnout! Some great people here. There’s Tommy LaSorda. What an amazing, amazing talent. He’s definitely my main paisan. The great entertainer Tony Danza is here. If you get a chance, check out his one-man show at the Palace Theater in Hoboken. Tremendous dancing and great patter. I love patter. And over there — Pete Rose. Just a great, great human being. Who, by the way, should be in the Hall of Fame. Him not being in there is a disaster. A total disaster. He bet on some baseball games, big deal. So my beautiful Ivanka got married today. And, trust me, if I wasn’t her father I’d tap that ass. But she married Jared, a very nice Jewish boy. Hundreds of people have come up to me and said, 'Mr. Trump, do you feel like you’re losing a daughter? And I say, no, I feel like I’m gaining an accountant.' ... (snip)

more disrespect in rest of the speech

the supposed speaker altogether too believable. Until that last ewww part. After all, this was before a crowd, not on a private bus with a mike accidentally left live...

Then again, what if OP is parodying a person's reaction?

Could be a double Poe's Law situation.

The poster was new to DKos and didn't identify the post as snark.

But yes, it does sound like something Trump is capable of saying...
