Former US president Donald Trump raised eyebrows among his no-nonsense New Jersey crowd at a rally Saturday when he recited a 1963 soul song in its entirety and referenced a fictional cannibal as "great.""A tenderhearted woman saw a poor, half-frozen snake," Trump said, reciting -- but not singing -- the song to the crowd.
He’s telling them whatever lie he thinks they want to hear.
And for reasons I can’t explain, far too many people are comforted by that blatant lie. Even when it contradicts the lie he told yesterday.
He does lie, but he also delivers at times. I don’t doubt for a second he’s going to do away with trans protections on “day one”. My issue is that the Biden admin has also delivered over and over again, but the Biden admin actions are not accompanied by “strongman” rhetoric so get downplayed.
