Trump promised his followers won't have to vote any more. Why would he promise that if there will be fair elections in 2026 and 2028?
Trump promised his followers won't have to vote any more. Why would he promise that if there will be fair elections in 2026 and 2028?
Because he was talking in terms of things his base wanted already being accomplished by 2026 or 2028?
I swear, as a liberal, the amount of pearl clutching and out of context nefariousness everyone frets about is insane.
1. Strongman opponent's speech, rather than leaping to extremes immediately
2. Understand Trump, moreso than other politicians, says all kinds of things he doesn't intend to do
Because Trump reliably makes at least one statement in support of ANY point in possibility space.
You can pull-quote Trump saying literally anything, from being pro-gun to anti-gun, pro-queer to radically anti-queer, literal child molester to saint.
His words literally don't matter, because he says them all.
Pay attention only to his actions.
Because he tells his people what they want to hear, no matter how big of a lie it is.
