Trump: "....if we get one person a little bit wrong..." 🤷‍♂️ (X & Text)

Context for those who don’t want to watch the 0:55 clip The Fox News personality asks him about how they had previously talked about (1 1/2 years ago) how the media would portray it if a young child was detained


Trump: We take out 25 murderers, drug dealers, we take out of the whole group of people by the thousands, and if we get one person a little bit wrong, headlines.

Yep. As an aircraft mechanic, I can guarantee that my career would be defined by the “one I got wrong” not the 10,000 I got right. Heavy weighs the crown.

Violently grabbing people who are NOT violent criminals out of their vehicles and homes? Detaining children? Detaining U.S. citizens and people who are here legally? MURDERING U.S. citizens?

That sociopath has milked the “innocent until proven guilty” standard to his benefit his entire life but now he doesn’t think it applies to anyone except him.

And he lies so much, who believes him when he says he took out of 25 murderers? And when he says “take out” what does he mean? Prior to Trump, people convicted of committing murder in the US were sentenced to prison in the US , not released to their country of origin.

to that one person, it is hardly a "little bit".

That said, there have been so many "bit wrong" incidents, some ending in death. What a truly tone-deaf, cruel thing to say.
