"What do you think they [protesters] want?" Harris Faulkner of Fox News asked the president. "What do you think they need, right now, from you?"
Here was Trump's answer, verbatim:
"Protesters for different reasons. You're protesting also because, you know, they just didn't know. I've watch - I watched very closely. Why are you here? They really weren't able to say, but they were there for a reason, perhaps.
"But a lot of them really were there because they're following the crowd. A lot of them were there because what we witnessed was a terrible thing. What we saw was a terrible thing. And we've seen it over the years. We haven't, you know, this was one horrible example, but you've seen other terrible examples. You know that better than anybody who would know it. And I know it. I've seen it, too. I've seen it before I was president. I've seen it. I think it's a shame. I think it's a disgrace. And it's got to stop."

They aren’t smart enough to judge the content of the words, they can only tell trump enunciated his hot air more.
This was my response to the Trump-Biden debate:
Thank you lmao. I always watch the president. Been doing it since before its cool.
Biden delivered an amazing speech one moring at 3AM to our NATO allies, it must have been 2023ish. I could not believe an 81 year old man had flown across the water to give a unifying speech. He even made a gaff! But it was well received and it was a presidential action.
Shame on him for being tired past 10pm at night, unable to debate a madman who's unable to stop lying. If only he spent 4 years relaxing, playing golf he may had been more energetic, the one hour of one night america decided to pay attention and judge a man by his words an actions.
Yeah!
Just think how bad off we'd be if Biden hadn't:
Fought against school busing after segregation ended...
Fought against healthcare reform...
Had all those "fun" dinners with strum thurmond...
Wrote large parts of the 92 crime bill...
Spent decades de-regulating finance for corporations....
Wait, what we doing again?
/s
His "hard work" was all against what the modern Dem party wants. And when he disagreed with the party as president, he just didn't try to do what the party wanted.
Stop acting like everyone forgot modern political history just because most did.
Biden was a net negative to the country even before he became president.
Yeah!
The world isn’t black and white!
Nope.
I'm saying if the Democratic candidate in 2025 is on par with the Republican candidate from 40 years ago, how was it not a conservative party?
I'm saying that if the Dem candidate wants to win, they need to match what policy Dem voters want.
What about that makes you think I like trump more?
If I liked trump more I'd pretend all these valid reasons for why trump won didn't exist, because I'd be desperate for Dems to keep repeating mistakes. Or since we now have the most progressive chair in my lifetime as of 2 months ago, I'd pretend that today's DNC is in any way similar to the DNC if just a few months ago that fucked shit up so badly
But I don't like trump more
So I spend some of my free time talking about how trump was able to win, and I forming people that today's DNC is actually worth a damn and we need to rally behind their new progressive leadership
What do you do?
One problem with this tactic is that Dem voters, like Repub voters, are fundamentally dumber than a bag of hammers.
I think if anyone wants to win in today's climate, they have to capture the media (including social media).
