“What do you think they [protesters] want?” Harris Faulkner of Fox News asked the president. “What do you think they need, right now, from you?”
Here was Trump’s answer, verbatim:
"Protesters for different reasons. You’re protesting also because, you know, they just didn’t know. I’ve watch - I watched very closely. Why are you here? They really weren’t able to say, but they were there for a reason, perhaps.
“But a lot of them really were there because they’re following the crowd. A lot of them were there because what we witnessed was a terrible thing. What we saw was a terrible thing. And we’ve seen it over the years. We haven’t, you know, this was one horrible example, but you’ve seen other terrible examples. You know that better than anybody who would know it. And I know it. I’ve seen it, too. I’ve seen it before I was president. I’ve seen it. I think it’s a shame. I think it’s a disgrace. And it’s got to stop.”
Edit: This quote was from 2020
I have had people directly tell me he isn’t mentally disabled when i have pointed out he is absolutely an incoherent rambling fool.
I heard him speak a few times, and i knew he was a complete idiot. He still got a second term. I cant comprehend this level of stupidity.
Maybe i am the dumb one?
I’m properly dyslexic, speech too, and even I don’t sound like that when my brainhalves crash and stutter while forming a sentence.
Smart people seem stupid to many stupid people because many stupid people are too stupid know they’re stupid.
Wouldnt that apply to me in this case? Or is that your point?
Potentially, to both of us. But given Trump’s and his ardent supporters’ speech patterns and behavior, the odds are that they’re in the category of “too stupid to know they’re stupid”.
