Discussion: In Confusing Moment, Trump Claims Dems Will Dismantle Obamacare If They Win

1 Like

His comments make little sense, and some are speculating that he meant to claim…

Stream-of-consciousness spew. That’s all.

Nah, the Democrats only want to dismantle the Affordable Care Act,. Republicans are making sure Obamacare and pre-existing coverage protection remain the law of the land.

Confused moment? The entire time he speaks at any event is confused. Many examples here.

It didn’t seem to upset his audience. It’s remarkable how facts and contradictions do not interfere in the least with how they feel about stuff.

The audience is there for the “experience” and the adrenaline rush that comes with the participatory hooting, hollering, and metaphoric beating up (or worse) of “The Other.” Like a cross between WWF event and a mass-cult-revival. It’s like they are in an enduced euphoric group=-trance during the rally. They are not there to listen or think.

Trump covering the Cruz O’Roarke election…er I mean Triumph. The last joke about spaying and neutering was fucking great! I swear one of the things I like best about being liberal is the comedy. There’s absolutely nothing funny with conserative ideal, the defunct show 1/2 hour comedy hour a prime example. Conservatism is all about anger.

Edit:
And this one is pretty damn insulting to Donald and funny too. At Donald’s inauguration. Warning it is a lot cruder sexually if that’s an issue for you.

Sounds like he’s on an excessive amount of his drug of choice, The Stupid Drug.

Key word there – “feel.” That’s all it’s about with these semi-sentient beings. Big orange man makes liberals mad. Pleasure centers activated. Repeat ad nauseum.

You left out demolition derby, never under estimate some people’s desire to see someone crash or be crashed into.

Must admit I would like to see Donald and the rest crash - not a nice trait, I know…

“The Democrats don’t care about health care! They hate nature too! Democrats blew a hole in the budget for a huge, tremendous deficit that I alone can fix by getting rid of social security. Democrats hate all you beautiful women - you know that because they only run ugmos for candidates - am I right? I’m not saying they’re female dogs - I’m not saying that. That would be rude.”

We already knew this, but:

Gawd, he’s such an idiot.

I swear I don’t wish ill on folks, but there shit need to have their health care fucked up by the Republicans so they can really see and experience how fucking stupid Donald, republican politicians and they themselves are.

With any luck at all Trump will finish today sitting in a corner drooling on his cell phone and babbling, “Where’s Hillary?” Build that wall…"

Daniel Dale follows this guy around for a living and is always hard on him, but he thinks it was just a momentary slip of the tongue. Sounded to me like he goofed up and tried to recover in this convoluted way (“Which would be good, but they’ll leave the bad parts”) that in his addled mind seemed suave. I never miss a chance to say he’s mentally ill and demented, but this sounds like a silly blabbermouth making a mistake and not admitting it.

Since this Trump quote is starting to go around — it was clear to me that it was an inadvertent error. This is his standard line (lie) about Democrats and Medicare, and he said Obamacare by accident. He fumblingly tried to semi-correct it right afterward. https://t.co/VNvSu4FMaP
