President Donald Trump gave a rambling answer when pressed about free speech concerns after right-wing activist Charlie Kirk was killed last week.

Trump made the remarks in an interview with Fox News’s Martha MacCallum on Thursday from Chequers, the U.K. Prime Minister’s country home. Trump has since departed the U.K. following a two-day state visit, which included a star-studded state banquet and a meeting with Prime Minister Keir Starmer.

"These people are crazed lunatics, even the way they'll answer, you know, it's like, you'll see them, and the things they say are really bad, but they look crazy,” Trump told MacCallum. “They're almost crazed. Maybe they're drugged out. Maybe there's some other problem.”

Is... is he talking about himself here?

Well, projection is what they do best.

"They keep bringing up windmills, even when it has nothing to do with the topic. And they go on and on and on about some election they won..."

coming from someone who it does lines of cocaine and adderall, and uses ORANGE FOUNDATION on his face.

Every response he gives is rambling. I don't even think it needs specified at this point.

I seriously want to be part of his autopsy. The amount of scientific knowledge we could glean on his neurological degeneration is limitless!

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 12 points 2 weeks ago

i've been kind of bummed that the MD that was going to autopsy me retired. we figured after i died we could take me apart properly so he could figure out what the hell went wrong, but he last practiced a decade ago. now i guess after i go i just want to be a skull with gems in its eyes and the rest of me composted into a lemon tree.

Don't forget to design a carving pattern for your skull and decide on the gems, wanna be pimping in death after all.

I rarely wish ill on most people, but at this stage, dumpy is barely a person. He's a fuckwit. I hope he dies a horrible painful death

[-] Binturong@lemmy.ca 12 points 2 weeks ago

When he says "these people" he is referring to himself and his acolytes in the government. It's not complicated, it's just deeply disappointing and depressing, but has proven to be true time and time again. Projection works, at least well enough to scrape together power while people try to figure it out.

I'm sorry I did not see the answer in the article. Maybe I just missed it. Did he already release the trump files?

[-] Daft_ish@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 2 weeks ago

Gtfo, all this guy does is ramble like a baffoon.
