He physically mocked a disabled news reporter during his campaign.
He openly said the way to get women is to grab them by the pussy during his campaign.
He openly admitted to being a racist dumbass with the whole "build the wall" during his campaign.
Yeah I'd say it was pretty cut and dry that he was a special kind of dog shit from the beginning.
The OP is proof of how much Trump has stretched the overton window, to the point that you can find liberals saying that 2016 Trump might have had a pass for some.
Yeah Trump has been openly fascist since long before he became president. Anyone with two ears and a functional brain could see that.
Yup we have a presumed presidential candidate openly talking about how he going to be a dictator
Exactly. And all of these commenters saying "Yes, well what if the person we're talking about is just media illiterate and doesn't pay attention to politics or has been incredibly successfully hiding under a rock for the last 8 years"... literally all someone has to do to determine that Trump is a horrible excuse for a human being is to read anything he's ever said or watch any of his appearances on camera. Any of them. Take your pick. If you can't clock that he's a fucking monster within 5 minutes of whatever clip he's in, then either you have no understanding of the difference between right and wrong, or you're dumb as hell. And if you do clock that he's a shithead and vote for him anyway, that makes you as bad as he is.
And hey, I get it. There are some incredibly stupid people in this world. But, like, 73.5 million people voted for that fat orange idiot in 2020. So it seems statistically unlikely that all of those people would fall into that category. For all, or even the majority of Trump's voters to not be shit human beings would be a statistical wonder.
Not to rest from your overall message, but I have the one single clip where Trump is unironically saying something positive. Of course, this speaks more about how deranged a significant portion of the GOP is than about Trump.
Ok, fair enough. I stand corrected. I suppose it is possible that someone out there could have missed every other thing Trump has said and done except for this clip and gotten a favorable impression of him. I will try to not be so narrow-minded going forward.
Don't worry, I somehow doubt that hypothetical person exists lmao
Bible belt thinks he's the anti-christ and wants him to ruin the world so they can have their rapture.
Worse, if he’s the antichrist, they’re the choades who were suckered into believing him. They talk about how he’s picked by Jesus. Some pastors have given sermons about how he is an “imperfect vessel”. But I’ve never heard any say he’s the antichrist, not even close.
Not so sure about that.
