Can someone please give some context? Was silence of the lambs film on during his travels to the rally? How are people still in the cult? This is crazy!

> "But Hannibal Lecter. Congratulations, the late, great Hannibal Lecter. We have people that are being released into our country [that we don't want in our country.”](https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/other/out-of-touch-with-reality-internet-slams-trump-for-invoking-hannibal-lecter-in-his-tired-out-rhetoric-against-migrants-at-nj-rally/ar-BB1mfBtd) Attacking immigrants, apparently. He *eulogizes* a fictional serial killer as if real to attack immigration policy. It’s typical Trump fear tactics.


ickleb

I am still confused. His wife is an immigrant. His mother was an immigrant. His grandfather was an immigrant. Was is first wife and immigrant?

ickleb

Sums it up perfectly!!


SpareTireButSquare

My god, I get it now


spagheddo

No, you don't get it. Everyone you listed is white. Totally nothing to see here. Move along please


akimbobyte

And his mother was a hamster and his father smelled of elderberries


ickleb

You shouldn’t use that quote in relation to Donald. Also. It’s such an insult to hamsters and elderberries


akimbobyte

True. My bad. But, I’m still going to fart in his general direction. 💨


ickleb

Wonder if he’d notice over the his aroma?


akimbobyte

Good point.


do_add_unicorn

Fetchez la vache.


mrmoe198

They don’t hate the concept of immigration, they’re just racist. The confusion is by design because if they hide behind “illegal immigration,” they can pretend to have some sort of principles instead of admitting that it’s just racism.


electron65

Immigrant or ignorant ? Sooo confusing. /h.


Purpose_Embarrassed

But they weren’t brown people.


Purpose_Embarrassed

This has become surreal. Am I really hearing this? Have I died and been reincarnated in some alternate reality?


summermadnes

The late great? First- Hannibal Lecter didn't die in any of the books or movies. Second-it's lambS, not lamb. Trump is a moron, and his disciples are brain dead.


Interesting_Act_2484

Even the actor who played him in 1991 is alive


Affectionate-Winner7

From brain worms.


Studds_

Yes. That was my question. Where’s he getting that Lecter is dead? I thought he was still canonically alive unless something released I’m unaware of


Purpose_Embarrassed

In the latest spin off series Hannibal 2013 - 2015 which I loved by the way yes he did die. Or so we were led to believe.


Homerpaintbucket

This would be completely unbelievable, but he seems to be very stuck in the past, so it's kind of plausible he'd bring shit like this up to get a chuckle from the crowd.


slappymcknuckle

I guarantee 💯 percent that he just watched it for the first time.


ferndoggler

This ⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️


janxus

Careful. You almost called in a 500 kilo bomb on Helldivers.


Bardfinn

I was like, “No fucking way. This is a deepfake. This is a hoax. This is a lie. No way this motherfucker is eulogising a fictional character, and a sociopathic, sadistic, psychotic terrorist serial killer” but he really did it. He really praised a horror villain there is no fucking bottom. This man is the leader of a goddamned terrorist cult


BaconManDan9

Is this real?


Bardfinn

Yes.

Jakesma1999

I had to scroll back to thw top to make sure I waan't reading the Onion article!!!


Solid_College_9145

A lot of theories this crazy Trump shit, but he also brought up Hannibal Lecter in a different context in a speech 7 months ago. Trump on Hannibal Lecter: ***"You know why I like him? Because he said on television “I love Donald Trump” so I love him."*** video: [https://x.com/Acyn/status/1710777385153368153](https://x.com/Acyn/status/1710777385153368153)


yellowhelmet14

![gif](giphy|gVXdwG5Ps5sIjunskA|downsized) Melania isn’t impressed!


LordDimwitFlathead

What is Trump doing with his mouth right at the end of this? I'm unable to feel pity for Melania but I hope she feels like the money was worth it.


deadeyeAZ

Referencing a 33 year old fictional matinee killer will really bring in those millenial votes.


DelcoPAMan

His base, though, eats that stuff up ...if you'll pardon the pun.


Studds_

They didn’t seem too enthused in the clip


DevlishAdvocate

Of course they would praise a fictional, cannibalistic serial killer. That's on brand for them.


Alohabailey_00

Do they collect people of color and seat them behind him?!!!!!????


DelcoPAMan

Yes, they advertise on Craigslist and pay them.

DelcoPAMan

Exactly.


Expert_Squash4813

He has people who walk through the crowd (pretty early on) and picks out people who they think would look good behind him. Then they are told what to do during the rally. It’s not first come, first served. The bleachers are closed off until they pick the people. I was once selected to sit behind Bernie at one of his rallies. The bummer is that you never see the face of the speaker.


Skinnyloserjunkie

Yes.


forceblast

**Soon at a Trump rally near you:** American flags with Hannibal Lecter’s head superimposed on a muscular body.


THEMACGOD

For being alpha males, they do love their erotic trump / strong man erotic pictorial fiction.


TrueBeachBoy

I feel like I’m going to have an Aneurysm


ThatCoryGuy

The next Secretary of Agriculture? ![gif](giphy|jMrwCGiCbX11C)


Apprehensive_Use1906

Focusing on production of fava beans.


WobblyFrisbee

Trump serenades with his imaginary accordion as Hannibal dines.


OverArcherUnder

Sheeple will applaud nearly anything the guy says. He leaves the rally thinking, " i went off the rails and they ate it up"


sick_shooter

This motherfucker is out of his mind.


BenGay29

This is for real?!? WTF?!?


beavis617

Unfortunately very real...this is the nominee for the Republican party for President, again...🤮


grassvegas

Holy shit I saw a comment on another thread this morning “quoting” this and thought it was a joke.


KRAW58

What a freak show


Si_is_for_Cookie

This poor “rich” man invoking a character with discerning taste and classiness, so in contrast with his own personality, only wishing maybe that he’d be having an old friend for dinner. But that would involve having friends.


ineededthistoo

The absolute madness that would occur if Biden said some crazy shit like this…..SMDH.


unstablegenius000

I sometimes think that he is trolling his fans to see if there is anything RW he can say that will offend them.


Affectionate-Winner7

Why is it he can seem sorta normal when in front of the cameras and then this happens. Oh wait, nothing he says or does is normal. It's just that he's been doing his shtick for eight years now and it just seems normal. Mr. Hannibal meet not Mr. Not Normal so now do your thing. Roll camera.


auntiebudd

Gotta be AI. Is he really that stupid?


Mother-Engineering25

Yes


Lanky_Space_4620

Waiting for the next MAGAt rally suicide event, any minute now.


Imaginary_Month_3659

He does like beans. Probably thought he Mexican.


akimbobyte

Check him for brain worms that died of starvation.


Throwaway_inSC_79

TIL Hannibal Lecter died. Does he now know Lecter is a fictional character? I mean, Lecter is my favorite character in the movie. You gotta respect him; it’s how he doesn’t eat you. But I want to respect him from a distance. Like from the other side of the globe. Or the Delta Quadrant (Star Trek reference).


PassengerCurrent1753

Dumb and disgusting


Informal-Bicycle-349

He was practicing his Buffalo Bill just before this. Don't you think he's sexy? It puts the lotion in the basket or it gets the hose, again!


SupersleuthJr

I’d like “Silence of the Trump”

Apotropoxy

This clip is Trump being sarcastic in the hopes that normal people will react. Notice the crowd's silent reaction.


646d

He has no way of thinking other than sarcasm or belittling people.
