It was sarcasm, which of course is totally lost on the cretins.

Exactly so. The far Left is notorious for its lack of humor.

He was suggesting the world is taking advantage of our porous border by sending it’s Hannibal Lectors our way. We’re stupidly letting them in, of course.

That’s true
Only sarcasm

Louisiana snake head is on occasion funny

So is Larry David

I actually watch his shows

Tony Hedgecliffe (sic) too

And bill hicks too

Occasionally slick was funny honestly

So there’s a handful

Some people just don’t understand sarcasm-when DJT says someone was/is wonderful in that ton e of voice, it is like someone in the South, Texas, etc saying “bless his/her heart’ in that same tone-a polite f*** him/her...

The author probably does not even know that the character of Hannibal Lecter was not a real person-it is fictional and based on a couple of real-life serial killers...

Thanks a lot for the links! Mr Millward appears to have form when it comes to “misunderstanding” PDJT.

A bit busy now but I will read through them thoroughly once I finished a few “musts”. Could eventually end up writing a letter to the DT about their US correspondent.

Well....it appears Millward thinks Trump is going for the cannibal segment of the voters only. :-)

He has obviously problem understanding US vernacular as Fedora points out in post #48.

I watched the rally. The crowd totally “got” what he was saying and they were all laughing.

The person who wrote this article is an idiot.

What was Trump actually saying about Hannibal Lector?

It was a JOKE. Not his best, but just a joke. A cannibal, having a friend for dinner.

Hannibal Lector doesn’t have the stomach for politics.
