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.

    Looking at other MS-13 tattoos from actual members, Garcia’s “MS-13” tattoos are simultaneously the best (for looking like they came off a typewriter) and the worst (for looking like they came off a typewriter).

    There’s an easy way to settle this. Just bring him back to the United States and take some photos of his hands.

    Evidence? Its not evidence, it is edited to show the supposed meaning if his tattoos. Its an intentionally visible edit as interpretation of meaning. Idk how anyone would think that was actually ink in the skin or anything other than what it is.

      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.

      Because people believe the big lie, the doublespeak, the gaslighting. Whatever you want to call it.

      It’s ok; he essentially set up the Tribunal of Six in his first term, so they’re probably gonna give him a pass. And if they don’t, he’ll probably just tell ICE to arrest the ones that don’t agree with him and aren’t white (Clarence Thomas being the specific reason for that ideological condition)

    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.

      He is a liar, for sure. But I think at this point, it’s become pathological, and mixed with a good dose of early senile dementia.

      The things he says are so outrageous and obviously untrue and even the dumbest magat can tell he’s spewing BS, but Trump doesn’t even realize it anymore.

      He’s essentially a crooked man who’s grown into an angry old man, but instead of shaking his fist at the TV in a retirement home, he’s sitting in the Oval Office.
