The âanimalâ in the White House is, as usual, wrong.
This is the full context of what he said:
Sheriff: I want to be able to report suspected MS13 members to ICE without probable cause
Trump: Yes! The people coming into this country are animals!
The thing is, Trump doesnât draw a distinction between immigrants who are MS13 and immigrants who arenât. This is the âtheyâre bringing drugs, theyâre bringing crimes, theyâre rapistsâ guy.
UmmmmmâŚwho exactly was âbegrudgingly forced to withdraw their storiesâ???
'Cause I sure havenât seen any âwithdrawalsââŚ
Taking another early morning ragedump from the golden throne, I see. Somebody tell the White House kitchen to stir some metamucil into his mashed potatoes.
previously on âThe Donald Trump Showâ
âMy administration is coordinating closely between federal and local officials to investigate the attack and to further investigate this animal who did this attacking.â
Trump then said the attacker should be held as an enemy combatant and sent to the U.S. military prison in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
âI guess a lot of people think they understand what happened, but he was a demented, sick individual, The wires were crossed pretty badly in his brain. Extremely badly in his brain. And itâs a very sad event.â
Thanks â I hadnât seen those.
youâre welcome
Can people who arenât on Twitter, block his twitter account?
Caught in a lie. Doubles down, lies some more. Remember "lacks temperament?"
Politifact has the gall to say Trump said this âin contextâ with previous statements about MS-13. Yeah, and ALL immigrants were mentioned in previous statements, so what a load of crap. Then they have the nerve to ask for money ad nauseam.
Sometimes Politifact comes off like theyâre trying WAY too hard. (Giving Obama âLie of the Yearâ for âif you like your plan, you can keep itâ while dozens of more odious and destructive conservative lies about the ACA existed comes to mind)
I donât want to spend a lot of my own time on this but I donât think itâs very helpful to debate with him about whether he meant all immigrants or not. I donât think thatâs what he meant, or at least if youâd stopped him and asked for a clarification he wouldnât have said every immigrant without exception is an animal. The problem is his inflammatory language and reckless, racist, and sadistic habits of thought. Calling people âanimals,â literally dehumanizing them, is not a thing responsible public figures do. Period. But heâs consistently done that, and since the literal first day heâs slandered immigrants in a purely demagogic way. Thatâs the problem. Not how to define who he meant the other day.
Run for office. Register people to vote. Get to the polls.
A Congress with a spine and a conscience could muzzle this oaf.
Poor guy. He is ALWAYS so misunderstood. He meant puppies and kittens.
I have to âadmireâ how much Donnie and his creatures will lie, lie, lie and lie again on something so inane. OF COURSE, you called immigrants âanimalsâ. This is not a one off. Youâve done it beforeâŚseveral times. The WH released a transcript where he called them animals in a discussion of IMMIGRANTS. The MS-13 reference is paragraphs before and if you want to say Donnieâs brain PINBALLS around conversations and he is unable to stay on track MAYBE we can chat but no. Itâs BSâŚas is all thing related to the Faker himself, DJT.
The press may have unintentionally mis-attributed his âanimalâ remarks to all immigrants instead of MS-13 gang members as Trump may have intended, but, given that itâs Trump weâre talking about here, itâs not too much of a stretch for anybody to believe that he called ALL immigrants âanimalsâ. I mean, he called Mexicans ârapistsâ during his campaign and makes offensive and boorish comments all of the time, so itâs not like it would be a stretch.
I think the genesis of Preshitident Skanky Manslutâs animus towards immigrants can be traced to his childhood. His father Fred Christ was of German heritage, a white christian supremacist racist and a Ku Klux thug. He was a very angry, very violent and hateful bigot around the house. Skanky Manslutâs mother Mary Anne MacLeod, was a Scottish immigrant and Fred Trump may have been constantly calling her an animal around the house with his children present. This must have left a deep impression on Skanky. So we now have a better understanding of Skanky Manslutâs awful choice of words. I wouldnât be surprised if he has referred to wife v1.0 and to the First Pornstar Lady, both whom were immigrants, as an animals.
