      No, he really didn’t.

      He vomits just enough word salad to give his supporters an excuse to pretend he didn’t say what he said, but he’s been remarkably forthright about nearly every heinous thing he’s done or is planning to do, from “grab 'em by the pussy” to “we need Greenland for national security.” And even when he doesn’t just publicly confess outright, you can tell exactly what he did because he falsely accuses others of doing it.

      How does, “then they rigged the election and now I’m president again,” suggest that he’s talking about Biden? He plainly laid out the sequence of events. It was one of the least convoluted things I’ve ever heard the man say.

        He was trying to be snide about the fact that he would have been president 2 terms in a row but they cheated him out of it.

          Have you actually seen the video? It’s very clear that wasn’t what he meant.

              It really doesn’t. It’s clear he’s walking through events linearly. He says he wasn’t president anymore, then the election was rigged and he’s president again.

                  No, I’ve seen the video and have no idea how anyone could possibly think he was talking about Biden.

                    Then why did you start your quote exactly where the out of context clip does?

                    Instead of quoting from memory, why not just link the video you think proves you right?
