He didn't say it, he insinuated it.
Is that really so different?
- baobabKoodaa 6y agoNo he didn't. This is exactly the kind of straw-manning that your GP was talking about.
- thomastjeffery 6y ago> They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people. Yes he did.
- throwmehaweh 6y agoI still think context matters, and he was clearly discussing illegal immigrants coming from Mexico & in relation to MS-13. The media would show that clip without context and instantly generate outrage.
- baobabKoodaa 6y agoDid you read the quote you just posted? It says "And some, I assume, are good people." As in "not literally all of them are rapists".
