We don't understand the "code". [View all]

Michael Cohen told us about how Trump spoke in code. "His" people (Trumpers) understand when he is talking in code.

That is why they heard something different when he talked about injecting light and disinfectant into patients bodies. That is why they heard something different when he spoke of "liberating" MI, MN, and VA. They heard that it was time to hit the streets and protest. And they did.

They hear what they want to hear because they feel like they have always been a persecuted minority until Trump came along. He makes them feel good. He makes them feel like they are the majority in this country. They hear dog whistles that the average person cannot hear.
