“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.”

        You asked who was downvoting him, not him. I was helping you understand since it was confusing you. I’m sure that happens a lot so i figured i’d jump in and save you from hurting yourself thinking.

          The comment you just replied to was my first comment in this thread. Perhaps read usernames before accusing other people of being too stupid to think, lol.

      So you’re suggesting we forget the former president existed? I still don’t understand. How many years back do historical events need to be before you approve of discussing them on the internet?

        I’m happy to go through 30 speeches of Joe Biden with you and give him a full psychiatric evaluation with you. We can drink whiskey and discuss. My friend I would love nothing more than to do that with you.

        Everything I love is fucking dying I cannot do this with you right now.

        COMMUNIST REVOLUTION WEN?
