The DUmpster / Re: Why would any Presidential candidate praise cannibalism!?

Video of the whole speech.  ...

 :hi5: !

The context of the comment - before and after - is from about 36:10 to 38:10. Trump was speaking about how, mixed in with lots of more ordinary people, some countries have mixed criminals and people from mental institutions into the flood of illegals. Trump used Hannibal Lector, sarcastically, as an illustration of the sort of wonderful people being sent from mental institutions to the US for us to deal with.

This isn't exactly a new theme for Trump, nor a new thing for the MSM to pretzellate and lie about Trump's comments about illegals. Back in 2015 or 2016 Trump was called a racist and anti-immigrant for pointing out the obvious fact that some illegals are violent criminals.

Video of the whole speech.  I lack time and attention span to find the exact time stamp, but my attempts to find the context match Pete's above.  Trump making a (dumb IMHO) joke, then going to immigration with no segue, which is pretty typical for his stream of consciousness style of talking.  My two bits is he really needs to get away from this type of improv stuff.  It creates fodder for the left just like this.  Trump has given plenty of well written and well delivered speeches, and me thinks returning to more of those would help him a lot more with the independent/undecided/non-political junkie vote that he needs to pull this election off.  A little off the cuff here and there, but more controlled, on point, clear talk. 

But what do I know?

So, in the real world (i.e. not DUmmieLand), how much of that meme's quote-oids* did Trump actually say or even say that more than slightly resembles the meme's quote-oids.

* quote-oids = fiction composed so as to resemble an actual quote.

So far nothing from Cohen has been anything shocking or newsworthy. I think anyone with a game of Clue could prove a crime was committed better then Bragg has so far.

Has anybody found a transcript of what Trump actually said? The MSM have systematically pretzellated and lied about things Trump said since at least July 2015, and DU-folks' Hate-Trump credulity exceeds the capacity of all existing measurement instruments.

The show I often listen to during my AM commute (Armstrong & Getty) played a partial clip of Trump's comment. They didn't give the context into which it fit, but Trump was grossly-obviously (to anyone willing to acknowledge it) speaking sarcastically. Like I posted above, the MSM are continuously pretzellating and lying about what Trump said and meant.

Ebola, H1N1, and swine flu under Obama.  We don't really need alt-history to see how kung=flu most likely would have been handled by Hilary.  Nothing bad that happens under Democrat presidents gets mainstream attention. 

Interesting thought though, if Hillary would have been president, and COVID got ignored like the aforementioned diseases, would it have been as bad?
