I firmly believe that if any other candidate, in a primary or general election, either republican or democrat, had said this, it would end their campaign.
We have become so accustomed to Trump saying outrageous bullshit, that this will be forgotten in less than a week, and most voters will never even hear about it.
It's easily forgotten because he'll say something new and outrageous again next week. Even his voters don't know what he intends to do. They just get caught up in whatever word salad they attach to. In reality, he will probably not do a fraction of the bullshit that he spews as promises. He has never kept a promise in his life anyway. He's not starting now.
Last time he was president all he did was golfing while letting bad guys run wild. He's enabling "chaotic evil" by being an idiot.
For instance, the pathetic half-assed wall didn't solve the immigration issue at all. The real evil were the stooges organising ICE to encage children.
there was also that time when he tried to stage a coup
Other people organized, staged, and enacted that coup. When he realized it was happening, he decided the coup stagers were "loyal" to him, so he was on board from that point on.
