President Donald Trump spoke before an adoring crowd in Tennessee Saturday, telling his fans, “I could say the stupidest things and you’d clap.”
He finally said what we were all saying this entire time. I hope those stupid people could understand what their stupidity has cost this nation.
I’m not a great lip reader, but that woman in red on the back left looks like she says “That’s true” right after he says it.
He’s making fun of you, Barbara.
TL;DR: Taken out of context, but turd is still a turd.
I am anti trump as much as any sane person but I’m also anti propaganda. Although I know nobody is immune to it, I believe it’s important to note that context matters.
context matters If you actually listen to it, he’s telling the supporters that he’s willing to come have a rally in places he’s already won because the people are so supportive and there’s a lot of love in the community. He then went on to say that he could come out and say the stupidest thing and they’d still cheer him on.
The context is that he was saying the crowds were supportive and loving, not that they were stupid.
Idk, I feel like anybody who cheers for a specific person, no matter what they say, refusing to think critically or consider disagreeing, is a fucking moron. Even if he didn’t mean to directly call them stupid, he’s still indirectly calling them stupid imo.
The inverse is also true. I don’t automatically disagree with everything trump says just because he’s a stupid, hateful, narcissistic fascist. I’m glad he discontinued the penny, is against changing clocks for the DST switches twice a year, and the quick rollout of COVID vaccines was a big win. I can’t think of anything else off the top of my head, but it’s important to acknowledge good shit even if it comes from a child raping dipshit. I’m not gonna pretend that I like the penny just because an adjudicated rapist dislikes the penny, and I also don’t like the pants-shitting fuckface just because we agree that changing clocks is dumb as fuck.
A lot of people liked Kanye’s music, and since coming out as an unapologetic Nazi, a lot of those people are not Kanye fans anymore. Those ex-fans adapted in ways that these forever trumpers are incapable of. Because they’re fucking stupid.
I’m not seeing how that’s not calling them stupid. Not really out of context at all actually.
The “context” doesn’t make it better. He’s literally telling them point blank that he can say whatever he wants and they’ll still cheer and love him. I’ll never understand people like you who come up with these ridiculous apologetics for Trump.
Stop fucking enabling him.
He says/does a lot of stupid things that his lackeys are forced to ignore or try to dismiss as a joke. Bragging/praising crowd’s unconditional love for the stupid crook is an example of a dumb thing to say.
Somehow I don’t think it’s out of context? Someone who is so supportive and loving to the point of ignoring the most blatant stupidity is a damn right dangerous idiot and a fool, and trump very clearly captured that.

I think it’s less about context and more about intent. I think his intent (and I assume the way the crowd interpreted it) was “I can talk about insignificant things like what I had for breakfast and you’d still find it exciting.”
Anyone with half a brain hears it as “you are so sycophantic that it doesn’t matter what I say, to the degree that I could openly insult you and you’d still cheer”
His followers hear it as “I appreciate you for supporting me, even when I talk about things that don’t interest you”
I can definitely agree with you there!
Democracy doesn’t work when the base is this dumb. Need to find another way.
Mob mentality and groupthink are very powerful. On another note, trump does say the stupidest things.
He DOES say rhe stupidest things, regularly, and they clap.
Totally not a cult.
As he slides into full dementia he’s just saying his internal dialogue out loud? JFC
Sometimes I think he hates his supporters more than progressives, leftists, unionists, and bipoc people.
I don’t know if that’s certifiable, but my gosh does he DESPISE his own people.
He does. They’re not rich, they can’t do anything for him other than vote. Trump doesn’t involve himself with anyone who can’t give him something.
If they were outside his place asking for anything he’d be the first to call security to get the “undesirables” out.
Because those unwashed masses cling to him, want to be near him. He can’t stand them because he thinks he’s the smartest person in the room and everyone around him is stupid. He’s classist AF.
s/could//
s/\’d//I sorta hate that I understand this 😄
They really are that dumb
You already do and they do, so yeah you’re right for once.
Tell us about those stupid TRUMP-EPSTEIN FILES ™
Just like the time he said “I don’t care about you, I only care about your vote.”
They are hopeless. Beyond fucking stupid. And what’s funny is Dump knows it. He knows no intelligent person likes him— and that pisses him off because he really wants their respect.
Ha ha loser.
Think of how stupid the average conservative is, then remember: half of them are stupider than that.
actualy just statistical error. MAGA Georg, who is part of MENSA but bought a red hat by mistake and has an IQ of 175, is an outlier adn should not have been counted.
Fuck trump
