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.

    To me, it seemed less like he thought it was real, and more like he was just being deliberately belligerently obtuse knowing that his followers would believe him anyway.

      Fascists don’t actually care whether something is real or not.

      Trump knows dude is not very “white” and that’s enough for him.

      The problem is when liberals like the NYTrash treat this as a valid debate, thus further legitimizing fascism.

      Really he made it pretty obvious he thought it was real.
