"Bertha, you were there at the rally when he said it!"
"Yeah well Kamala controls the weather so obviously she was controlling his mouth too!"
Ugh, I’m having flashbacks of when Trump was on Oprah and he said if he was gonna run for president he would run as a Republican because their voters are the dumbest ones. That shit got wiped from the internet and Trump supporters claim it’s the Mandela effect.
My one right wing friend tried to claim that too, and me and my other two buddies were like “dude you watched it WITH us.” He even made a Facebook status about it after we watched it. We are reminded of it every year in our Facebook memories. And he STILL claims it never existed.
So I'm trying to search for that clip and I can't find one. It's been debunked by Reuters in 2020. Do you have anything besides your memory?
"He was a guest on the February 7, 2011 show"
Surely BTN or some other torrent tracker has that episode. I'll look it up after work and report back.
Yeah the episode exists, it's linked in the debunk article by Reuters. He talks about running, does not say anything like the quote, that has been debunked many times.
So if you find it let us know. I'm sufficiently convinced he did not say that (in a recording)
