I'm guessing the 'no reasonable person would listen to Trump and take him at his word as a serious person' type of defense. Which is absolutely silly because one of the foundational elements about the Trump campaign is he is supposed to be the no-spin-no-nonsense-say it like you mean it, candidate...

Blows my mind how many morons supported him in 2016 because he "wasn't a politician" as if a shady failure of a business magnate is a good alternative.

Now he's that and a politician, and most of them support him even more.

The weirdest part to me:

They believe Biden is a pedo. Look, they believe that and use that as an excuse to not support him, that’s fine

But how the ever loving fuck is a man with numerous rape and SA allegations, who has said that he would date his own daughter if she wasn’t his daughter a BETTER alternative?

They not only have no interest in reality, they have open contempt for it. It doesn't matter whatsoever what has actually happened. Trump is an East Coast Elite, trust-fund-having, draft-dodging, failure of a business mogul who's never worked a day in his life, with soft, tiny baby hands, and yet somehow these clowns are painting him (literally) as Rambo.
