I suspect that a fair number of his supporters mainly show up to see what sort of crazy shit he's going to say next. Of course, they're also happy to believe the nonsense if it supports what they already believe.

Have you ever considered that Trump has designed and developed a well crafted public persona, with a honed marketing message that he pushes forward to the masses, no matter what...... I doubt it too - but maybe?

This is infuriating. Even worse, there are people who will BELIEVE this.

Another sexist, stupid lie to please his Evangelical supporters. Disgusting.

If any baby actually deserved having its head lopped off.....we need to go back about 70-some years and find his mother.....he's freaking INSANE!

Liar liar pants on fire

It's an old trope, and some - mainly his hardcore base - will still swallow it.

He doesn't deal in facts, only feelings.

Taken out of context. He was talking about his own parents when he was born.

Holy crapola! I mean no - could he actually? Could he?

I'm going to my pillow fort now if anyone wants to join me. Bring food.

I still can see FB posts of a pre-Trump friend, and occasionally annoy myself with looking. The info these people support indicate they are pablum-fed and nearly unconscious, amazing they are out and "living" among us.

What a freakin' idiot......

And the crowd believes it. I wished all those dullards could go talk to NICU folks and see that most of them have plans in place for the comfort/hospice care for babies that are born but without a chance - one of the most heart-wrenching jobs in all of medicine. Serious genetic defects, malformed lungs, no brain - all of these awful things that happen..... Just awful. OB/GYNs are going to get killed because of this talk.

Of course, he's not far off from what the anti-abortion extremists believe (or claim to believe) anyway; he's just 10% more over the top.
The Donald has what we call a "fantasy-prone personality". He confabulates things he hears, things he thinks he hears, things he imagines, and the worst things he can imagine, and then he believes it's all true, just because then the world makes sense to him. Because otherwise, he would be wrong, and that doesn't make any sense!

My niece once said something similar. I'm still not sure she understands that not how it works.

Now why didn't Donald's mummy and doctor do that? What a missed oppprtunity!

Well you know the Kkkristian base Love his "alternative truths"..
