As it was pointed out before, that interpretation is straight up nonsense. Chronologically it says that the "seconde amendment people" have to act if she gets to pick her judges, i.e. after the election.

That's not what it sounds like to me. The whole "could" thing is her trying to spin the statement as "your 2nd amendment rights could be at stake so go out and vote" (which of course is grade A horse poo poo), but I don't think she's addressing a hypothetical assassination.

Mostly its the initial "Mexicans = Rapists" quote from last summer, "People who wouldnt be admitted legally might try coming illegally because they want money" makes absolute sense just as he said it, and i dont get why another interpretation took off like a Saturn V rocket. (it certainly did)

This interpretation does not make any sense, because Trump is describing a scenario in which Hillary has already won and is already picking judges. It would be too late for anyone to vote against her in that case.

He's got just enough plausible deniability in that quote that I don't think any legal charges could possibly stick, but I'm hoping at least this scares off another handful of his potential voters if nothing else.

If he was trying to speak to a large voting base, then why did he pick the one known for guns? And not:

  • Evangelicals
  • Law Enforcement Supporters
  • Anti Immigration Folks
  • Economic Conservatives

No, he wasn't trying to connect Hillary with gun grabbing. He was thinking "Hey, you can't do anything about her judge picks if she gets elected. But you guys with a lot of guns and love for guns, you might be able to."

Jesus christ, it would only be more obvious if he winked and said "IF YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN". He is a man literally known for bullying and being aggressive - of course he's going to hint at violence. Hinting at it is his way of toning it down, since he was also the guy that flat-out said he wanted to hit some of the people at the DNC.

This 2nd amendment gaffe is a great chance to point out something thats been bugging me all election. What trump says, how i take it, and how its taken.


Direct Trump quote:Thank you. It’s true, and these are the best and the finest. When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re not sending you. They’re not sending you. They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.

What i heard: "Someone willing to risk their life and fortune to subvert the legal immigration process is likely to be someone who would be weeded out by it, we should enforce our borders better".

What you heard: All mexicans are rapists, white power!



Direct Trump quote:"If she gets to pick her judges, nothing you can do folks. Although the Second Amendment people—maybe there is. I don't know."

What i heard: Hillary is going to gently caress the second amendment sideways, if you care about this vote against her.

What you heard: Someone please shoot hillary.


(Frankly "What i heard" could just as easily be "What he should have said", but really, what do you expect from a candidate from queens)

I'll give you the first one as a maybe possibly reasonable argument to someone who is completely deaf to dog whistles.

The second one is clearly a threat however.

This is because each Surrogate is trying to vie for Trump's attention so wont cooperate..
If they win, they will be rewarded.
If they lose, they can get a book deal on how they were in the middle of 'How Trump destroyed the Republican Party'.

And I bet you there is a poo poo ton of more money to be got from the latter.

i think most people agree with that but instead of "make sure we dont hurt anyone who doesnt deserve to be hurt" you got probated multiple times for arguing that treyvon martin deserved it
