Trump justifying military occupations by citing anecdotal friends' idiocy as proof for his phony crime statistics

Trump: I have friends, they leave their trunk open for their car because they know they will be vandalized. They don't want the trunk ripped off in order for them to steal what's in the back. They leave the doors open when they steal the radio or whatever they take they don't rip off the door.

Acyn @Acyn
Trump: I have another friend—he has a garage and in order to save his garage door—he leaves it open so the people can just walk into his garage, take whatever they want and leave.

...his administration has not actually consulted any of the public officials who represent what people want in their states; they're just doing favors for unidentified, anecdotal idiot friends of Trump.

1. Lying moron

[jls4561]

2. It's all lies, beginning with the phrase "I have friends".

Fat Donnie has people he bribes, and people who bribe him.

3. The first lie is "I have friends...."

4. That is the most stupid thing I've ever heard...

It’s like this…

I have a lady friend…she told me when she was walking down the street a guy came by
and then she got naked to save her dress and lingerie and said rape me.

I can make up stupid shit too…damn maybe I should run for president.

5. More of the same. It gets tiring.

[peggysue2]

6. They're the dumbest stories I've ever read

Either that or his friends are as stupid as he is.

[Irish_Dem]

7. He doesn't even bother to come up with good lies.

He can be as lazy and stupid as he wants.
No one cares or will hold him accountable.

8. Believe it or not, there are millions of citizens in this country hearing this and saying "Goddam right!"

The rest of us knew he was lying as soon as they heard the phrase "I have friends..."

9. No doubt his imaginary friends call him "sir" when they tell him these things.

13. And therein hangs

the tell.

10. Was his friend named "John Barron" or "John Miller" or "David Dennison"?

[SeattleVet]

11. Yeah, right...

"Big friends; strong friends. They come to me with tears in their eyes…"

To quote a great orator, "Shut the fuck up, Donnie."

12. In either case he stated, there would be no crime because the owners are

freely allowing people to take what they want.
