The potential future president had also told the crowd, “You know they say you gotta vote with your stomach, I don’t know if you’ve heard it but it’s a little bit true,” before launching into some questionable food inflation numbers.

“Food has gone up at levels that nobody’s ever seen before,” he declared, following up his claim with some unsupported numbers. “We’ve never seen anything like it – 50, 60, 70 percent.”

The online response to Trump’s odd claims has been relentless, with one X/Twitter user writing, “Operation let him talk is going exceedingly well.”

    Not really.

    I just added more context, because you said that’s not exactly what he said, but he kind of did. If anyone else would said this in that order you would think that the person believes the wind power has something to do with bacon.

    I agree that he is rambling and losing the topic of what he is talking about and actually that alternative is worse than if he truly believed wind farms prevent people from eating bacon. Also a title “trump rambles again” wouldn’t interested anyone.

      I think it’s important to focus on the wide range of things he actually says than the absolute ramblings of a mad man. A better headline might be “Trump rambles on about bacon and wind power at (whatever location)”
