In an interview on The MeidasTouch Network, Adam Kinzinger didn't hold back when discussing Trump's odor

Over the years, there have been wide-spread rumors that Donald Trump has a certain signature aroma that has rarely been described as being good, which the former president has taken great offense at. On December 16, former Rep. Adam Kinzinger, R-Ill. threw his take on this subject into the mix via a now viral social media post, writing, “I’m genuinely surprised how people close to Trump haven’t talked about the odor. It’s truly something to behold. Wear a mask if you can.” And he doubled down on that in a recent interview on The MeidasTouch Network.

On the subject of a Trump spokesperson firing back at Kinzinger’s claim with, “Adam Kinzinger farted on live TV and is an unemployed fraud," Kinzinger went in even harder.

Trying his hand at Smell-O-Vision, the former GOP lawmaker went into greater detail about the way Trump smells, saying, “It’s not good. The best way to describe it . . . take armpits, ketchup, a butt and makeup and put that all in a blender and bottle that as a cologne. That’s kind of that. I’ve been amazed that everybody is just kind of learning about this now.”

    I don’t care about making Trump seethe. I care about making sure people don’t vote for him. Doing everything in your last paragraph will just give him red meat to throw to his supporters and say “see?”

    I want his people to look at him and realize he isn’t the strong, powerful man they think he is. If this comes at the cost of offending some people with small hands or people who smell bad, I’m okay with this. There’s much more at stake here than making sure we don’t offend anyone along the way.

      I don’t see how any of this is a justification for body shaming. If anything, you’re driving people away by engaging in things like body shaming and bigotry.

      Focus on the issues. This is not one. And no, winning an election does not justify bad behavior. That’s … so counterproductive, like it’s exactly why I wouldn’t want to vote for someone.

        These people have made it abundantly clear they don’t care about the issues. Or, at least, they can view the facts in anyway they want to (including outright ignoring them) to justify Trump being the one better to address their issues. They think he is a one-man god that can come in and fix everything. They’ve been conned by a charismatic cult leader.

        I’ve been doing the facts and focusing on issues for years now and have only watched more people flock to him. He’s a genius at selling himself.

        I’m not saying Biden should go out and start saying that Trump smells. And considering I’m not running for office, so I don’t care about being elected, I don’t particularly care that you wouldn’t want to vote for me. Hell, I wouldn’t vote for myself. lol

        And if body shaming Trump makes him fall apart and makes these people wake up and realize what a weak pile of insecurity this man is, then I’m all for it. As I said, more at stake here than making sure people who smell bad are comfortable with smelling bad. That’s among the things I care the least about. I care about this country falling into fascism where it might lead to far worse things for “undesirables” then being made to feel bad that people said Trump smells.
