Finally – Trump clarifies whether he would rather be electrocuted than killed by a shark

We’ll say one thing for Donald Trump, his campaign tactics are never entirely predictable.

At a rally in Iowa, during a rant about electric vehicles, the former – and possibly future – president told the crowd his preferred manner of death if his boat were to sink. As you do.

“If I’m sitting down and that boat’s going down and I’m on top of a battery and the water starts flooding in, I’m getting concerned.

But then I look 10 yards to my left and there’s a shark over there, so I have a choice of electrocution or a shark, you know what I’m going to take? Electrocution.

I will take electrocution every single time, do we agree? I will take electrocution.”

We were actually being slightly generous with the transcript. Biden-Harris HQ was a little more accurate.

We’re not sure what the Iowa crowd actually thought of it, but tweeters were very clear.
