Crazy rhetoric

Wow, that's pretty funny. It's hard to say if he is serious or faking it.

Wow, he seemed manic and delusional to me.

The especially disturbing parts were the places at 1:48 to 1:52 (the misquote) and at 5:04 to 5:12: the childish display of military-type 'Attention' while reciting whatever this is supposed to be:

"I believe in the entities and the principles of the National Republican party, The State of Ohio Republican party and the Stark County Republican party."

He couldn't think at all, it seems. He could only remember a few words at a time, from his notes, before running back to his notes. And it was a very simple speech.


A commenter had an interesting observation on the position he was seeking:
By the way, why is Treasurer a partisan office in the first place? Do Republicans add and subtract money differently than Democrats? It's like County Coroner being a partisan office. They're just as dead no matter who's tagging their toe.

I think this is real life (see below). At first I was cringing and couldn't believe what I was hearing, then it just got too strange and I had to laugh for ventilation. I felt strange by watching it as I didn't know what I was laughing at, it's sort of like awkward situation comedy ala 'the office'. An apparent real life delusion is not really funny but bad timing and pretense can be, OSIT. Perhaps I am laughing at my own fear of breaking social conventions?

"I went home and had a ham sandwich and went to bed and thought that was the end of it," Davison told TPM. "A friend called, and well, I'm not very good with electronics, is there a YouTube? It was on some kind of electronic server."
...
The 39-year-old Davison, currently unemployed apart from his $260-a-month salary for the part-time work he puts in as a councilman in Minerva County, Ohio, also told TPM that his ultimate political vision was to expand the GOP to encompass the louder, more extreme factions of the party.
