To be honest, listening to that interview, not only is he still a gigantic asshole, I honestly can’t tell if he’s dumb or suffering from cognitive decline.
I feel like this is Trump trying to stretch the interview so he doesn’t have to talk about the economy for long. This part was painful to watch, and Terry Moran did try to get past arguing, but classic Trump got everyone talking about how he thinks the characters M S 1 3 are tattooed on his hands, rather than having a conversation about how crazy things are that just the fact you have tattoos will get you deported.
I don’t think that was deliberate, I think he really is that incredibly dumb and vain that he genuinely thought he was right. So right that he demanded the interviewer must concede and agree to his delusion before moving on. The size of his ego is only matched by the size of his stupidity
It’s all beside the point since even if he had MS13 tattoos, he still is owed due process. And sending someone to a concentration camp is of course a violation of international law
Yes, i didn’t mean to imply Trump is smart here, he is of course incredibly dumb. I think though that is how this works out for him, he says an incredibly dumb thing which people fixate on, and that gets the headlines. The horrible things he’s doing are then in articles below the fold, and he gets away with it.
Yeah, basically. Although I do put the blame on the legacy media for not giving more attention to the horrible things he’s doing. The more coverage it gets, the more aware people are about the terrible effects of his policies. I’m glad we’re finally seeing his approval rating for him and his policies in decline, but it’s still too high
