This is the moment that Donald Trump threatens an ABC reporter after they asked about free speech. Speaking with ABC News Chief Washington Correspondent Jonathan Karl on Tuesday (16 September), the president appeared to become annoyed after the reporter asked him about Pam Bondi’s crackdown on “hate speech”. “A lot of your allies say hate speech is free speech,” Mr Karl said, to which Mr Trump responded: “She’d probably go after people like you because you treat me so unfairly. It’s hate. You have a lot of hate in your heart.” After slamming ABC, the president claimed that he “wants everything to be fair” and placed blame with the “radical left who have done tremendous damage to the country”.
They like him specifically because he has the temperament and vocabulary of a 5 year old. Cause they do too, which makes him sound “real” instead of someone talking down to them. They don’t care about any of his actual policies. They don’t care about what he does. They barely care about what he actually says. All they care about is he makes them feel okay about being ignorant and bigoted.
It has been absolute whiplash to realize this over the last decade. I used to laugh at the old carlin joke of “imagine how dumb the average person is. Half of them are dumber than that.” I knew that there were a lot of idiots out there, but I believed that they were at least kind hearted idiots that could learn a lesson one way or another. Apparently I set the bar too high. I genuinely cannot adequately express how disappointed I am with my fellow countrymen every single day.
No single issue has had a more significant impact on my perception of humanity than the popularity of Donald Trump.
if it’s any consolation, even more americans than that are just too apathetic (or too damn tired, overworked, and overstressed) to pay attention to politics at all unless it immediately effects them on a day-to-day basis
oh wait, that just makes it even worse
You’d think these people would be just the dumb ones doing crappy jobs but I’ve seen Maga types in high positions in engineering as well, boogles my mind that someone educated would make such bad choices and harbor so much illogical haterated
Oh they do care about some of his policies, the ones that hurt people that don’t look like them.
I would prefer a 5 year old as POTUS. Give them some ice cream, fries and something to do (not to difficult) and they’re happy. No unlimited greed or hatred for others.
