    “Canada has taken advantage of us for so many years. The worst of any country,” Trump said.

    Someone should tell this moron that repeating something excessively does not make it true.

      Joseph Goebbels: “If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”

          I would say there’s a difference between reading and comprehension. He can read, but he has zero ability to comprehend what he’s reading. Anything requiring complex thought — nahh he’s doneskies.

      I saw a meme on facebook of Trump giving an anti-trans speech, and I knew it was bullshit. Not because Trump isn’t anti-trans (he is, don’t know happened to him to make him that way, he was one of the people against bathroom bans initially… Oh right mental decline and his base loving it when he shit talks transpeople happened.), but because it was coherent and well-written… for bigotry.

      Guy has been doing it publically since the 80s, and probably all 8 decades of his life and it got him nothing but power and wealth.

      Its the morons who listen to him that need to be straightened out.
