    That is why you are such a simpleton. I didn't say he didn't organize the attack, I said he can't be convicted of "inciting a riot" because of the complicated elements. To say he can't be convicted is NOT the same thing as defending him or supporting him. It just means you do not understand the crime. I can organize a demonstration, but making the participants engage in violence is much harder.

    To claim that makes me a Trump supporter is stupid and shows your us v. them mentality.

    I'm not convinced that even education can fix this.
    Me either. Sometimes I think they're hard-wired.

    Because you don't hear Democrats talking sh*t about poorly educated minority voters and how easily they are manipulated by racial demagoguery because you like how they vote.

    Trump's comment might be the most Christian thing he said in his life. (he didn't say it for Christian reasons but nonetheless it was showing love to the lower class of society)
    You don't think he was serious when he said "I LOVE the poorly-educated", do you? I remember how he privately criticized many of his followers on Jan. 6 because he considered them dumb and low-class.

    He said it to try to convince his people that he was on their side and they fell for it.

    Donald Trump was annoyed by the violent siege on the Capitol Wednesday — which left several dead — because it looked “low class,” according to his adviser. “He doesn’t like low class things.”

    Sometimes I think he's truly lost the plot. Was he this way on DCJ?

    I suppose he could be posting blind drunk, too.

    Politicians tend to love anyone who votes for them. But what they say publicly and what they say behind closed doors can often be two different things.

    Analogous to entertainers or athletes who publicly thank their fans then trash them when alone.

    It was a typical politician speech where talks about the various groups of people he claimed to win the votes of then said he loved one of the groups. It’s beyond me how that continues to be discussed today.

    We discuss him because he never left office and became a past vs. current event. As long as he's out there making noise, people will comment.

    But in GENERAL, it's not the best thing when a candidate relies on poorly educated people to maintain his or her popularity. And that is Trump's huge advantage as a candidate - those who are less educated prefer him over primary opponents, or any Democrat.

    And it explains a lot about his popularity. Grifters rely on people not wising up to what they're doing.
    Trump has proved the dumbing up of Americans is successful!

    Not discussing him, but that particular comment. I don’t understand why it bothers people. He’s said plenty of not nice things, why are people then upset that he said he loves a group of people (and that group of people includes those from all walks of life and backgrounds) and still talking about it years later?
