Big stuff
Trump went to Jackson. Trump read the words they wrote for him, and then added his own, more stupid ones.
In his remarks to assembled guests, Trump said: “The civil rights museum records the oppression, cruelty and injustice inflicted on the African-American community, the fight to bring down Jim Crow and end segregation, to gain the right to vote and to achieve the sacred birthright of equality.”
He said: “And it’s big stuff. That’s big stuff.”
Uh uh uh, big stuff, uh uh.
He doesn’t, of course, mean a word of the first paragraph. He likes the oppression, cruelty and injustice inflicted on the African-American community, and has done what he can to add to it. He has no quarrel with Jim Crow, he likes segregation, he’s doing his best to take away the right to vote, and he doesn’t for one second believe in the sacred birthright of equality.
That’s why he shouldn’t have gone. The governor shouldn’t have asked him and he shouldn’t have gone. His vulgar addendum to the speech they wrote for him only underlines that.
It’s because he doesn’t really understand all those words they wrote for him, but he knows voting, and he knows this is a major occasion, so he wants to make sure people understand he recognizes it is big…he has a good brain, and knows what all this is about. and all of the people who claim he doesn’t think deeply (that would includes us, of course) are so wrong, just so, so wrong. We are so wrong. Just wrong. Very wrong. Bigly wrong. He does so get it. and it is big stuff.
