    I really don’t want to listen to these assholes talk, but I’m like 90% sure the context is just like how we say Republicans are horrible Christians, as in they don’t follow Christianity not that we hate Christians.

    I really don’t know of any instance when he said or agreed to something that bad that wasn’t aimed at immigrants or Democrats. My money is on worthless asshole “media” going for the clickbait money and lying by omission.

    I hate that I even have to attempt to defend this piece of shit, but these things never turn out to be true in the way it is described.

    It’s just like the “you wont have to vote” thing. It’s almost certainly “you won’t have to vote to get what you want next time because if I win we’ll have fixed it already!” not “you don’t have to vote because we’re becoming a dictatorship.” No one is that stupid, even Trump.

      I don’t know, though. I said and thought just about the same thing, but he’s said so many of these kinds of things, and his true believers believe it. We ought to believe he means it, too.
