Donald Trump continued his push on Saturday to win the Republican presidential nomination with a pair of caucus rallies in Iowa, beginning at the DMACC Conference Center in Newton and then culminating in Clinton. His speeches come on the third anniversary of Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol and a little more than a week before the Republican Iowa caucus commences on Jan. 15.
As for commemorating the solemn anniversary of Jan. 6, Trump lauded the insurrectionists, while labeling some immigrants as “terrorists” and prisoners and gang members. “And terrorists are coming in also. What they’re doing to our country is not — it’s it’s, when you talk about insurrection, what they’re doing? That’s the real deal. That the real deal — not patriotically and peacefully, peacefully and patriotically” he said, contrasting those who rioted as “peaceful” and “patriotic” against immigrants, who the four-time indicted former president continually paints as criminals.

“I’m so attracted to seeing it,” Trump said. “So many mistakes were made. See, there was something I think could have been negotiated to be honest with you. … I was reading something and I said, ‘This is something that could have been negotiated … that was a that was a tough one for our country… If you negotiated it, you probably wouldn’t even know who Abraham Lincoln was … but that would have been OK.”
Oh wow…
Everyone that started a war was honest about why they started it to you?
So, you think Russia is honestly invading Ukraine to save the globe from Nazis?
Have you ever thought about how profitable bridge ownership would be? I’ve got one in Brooklyn I want to get off my hands…
If the reason is that fucking reprehensible yes.
The fuck does that even mean?
You think staring a civil war over “they’re making us stop having slaves” is better than “they won’t return escaped slaves back into slavery”?
Their lie is a bad thing, but it’s still better than the actual truth.
What is hard to understand?
Like, if Jeffery Dahmer admitted to rape, would you think that means the serial killer stuff can’t be true?
Lots of evil people admit to less evil actions so people stop talking about the worst.
This ain’t even about history, it never stopped happening.
