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.
He’s said in multiple occasions that he loves the poorly educated. Also, smart people don’t like him.
Directly calling your supporters stupid and they cheer.
I think there’s a lot of rich smart people who like him.
I’d argue they probably don’t like him, but that doesn’t mean they won’t use him to gain more wealth.
If they like him they aren’t smart by definition, as he will fuck everything up.
You’re right only if you consider empathy and care for others as smart.
Execs at big companies have made tons of money. Trump has done amazing things to steal wealth from the majority and transfer it up to the wealthiest 0.1%.
It is smart to support Trump if you’re in the top 0.1%, greedy, and don’t care about anyone else but yourself
There far too stupud to put that together. They’re like, hate junkies.
They’re like, hate junkies.
Hate is the opiate of the masses. Some say it’s religion, but that’s incorrect. Religion is merely a syringe of choice.
Damn! That’s a good angle! That shit rings so true.
Incapable. Completely, utterly, unable to understand.
The whole world
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.
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.
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.
I’m not seeing how that’s not calling them stupid. Not really out of context at all actually.

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!
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.
he knows this from experience
Mob mentality and groupthink are very powerful. On another note, trump does say the stupidest things.
His one promise he’s kept!
Democracy doesn’t work when the base is this dumb. Need to find another way.
Ironically, this was what the EC was supposed to protect us from.
IKR?
Democracy is not a nice to have, but a check and a balance on power. The problem is the two party system, that and the fact that money has become a bridge between the separation of powers.
The democrats don’t give a damn about democracy either. They inserted Biden into the election without a proper primary (while the republicans were at least doing a show of it), but then realised that he’s too old and inserted Kamela as the new candidate with no primary, which shows how they disregard the will of the electorate.
This caused voter disenfranchisement, leading to low voter turnout and handing the election over to Trump. They’ll probably do it again, over their stance on Palestine - believe it or not - and it’s kind of stupid.
You LIBTARDS are SO Stupid! He was OBVIOUSLY Joking!
-People who are going to Vote for his JOKING THIRD Term!
“Oh no, he deported my Mexican wife that he joked about deporting!”
He DOES say rhe stupidest things, regularly, and they clap.
I mean, he already does. They’re idiots, they’ll clap for anything said by anyone as long as they know someone they irrationally hate will suffer.
It is fascinating really, what kind of word spouted from trump so his supporter gonna jeer and give middle finger instead?
maybe when he speech about everybody need to be nice to each other ?
They booed him once. It was during COVID, he had spent the last 6 months calling it fake, but at some point for a brief moment he realized it was serious. He told everyone at his rally they needed to get the vaccine. The crowd turned on him quick.
And you know that he got that vaccine ASAP, since he’s old and fat AF.
Spoiler alert, everything that comes out of your mouth is the stupidest. And I would love it if someone would clap you upside your head.
COULD???
You already do and they do, so yeah you’re right for once.
As he slides into full dementia he’s just saying his internal dialogue out loud? JFC
Yes, and he also realizes he can say the stupidest things and they’d clap.
Look at the faces of the fucking morons behind him after he says this.
They’ll learn absolutely nothing from this, either.
