Some are outrageous in a way you might want to laugh out loud.

Example: he said at the Republican National Convention, "I am running to be president for all of America, not half of America, because there is no victory in winning for half of America."
 
Same speech: "In an age when our politics too often divide us, now is the time to remember that we are all fellow citizens — we are one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."
 
The very next statement might churn your stomach more than make you want to laugh:

"And we must not criminalize dissent or demonize political disagreement, which is what’s been happening in our country lately, at a level that nobody has ever seen before. In that spirit, the Democrat (sic) party should immediately stop weaponizing the justice system and labeling their political opponent as an enemy of democracy. Especially since that is not true. In fact, I am the one saving democracy for the people of our country."
 
Same speech, "Under my plan, incomes will skyrocket, inflation will vanish completely, jobs will come roaring back, and the middle class will prosper like never, ever before and we’re going to do it very rapidly."

Well, the billionaires' incomes skyrocketed under him.
 
I think I found the winner for the thread. I just laughed out loud. You can put it with Nixon's "I am not a crook." From the same speech:

"I am not a braggart."

Same speech, "I was not there because of a ridiculous election"
 
Same speech, about building military ships: "In fact, I had a little design change and we gave them a tremendous for, essentially, what we used to call destroyers. These are now the most beautiful. They look like yachts.

I said, “We have to take the bow, and we have to make it a little nicer, and a little point at the top instead of a flat nose.” And the people at the shipyards said, “This guy sort of knows what he’s doing.” We had the most beautiful ships, right, governor"
 
This one is not funny, but sad. Same speech: "We will unleash the power of American innovation, and as we do, we will soon be on the verge of finding the cures to cancer, Alzheimer’s disease and many other diseases...

But [Biden] said we’re going to find a cure to cancer; nothing happened. We’re going to get to the cure for cancer and Alzheimer’s and so many other things. We’re so close to doing something great. But we need a leader that will let it be done."
 
Not funny, but turns out, he invaded Los Angeles and Washington, DC to have the troops clean the streets. Same speech:

"And we will restore and renovate our nation’s once-great cities, making them safe, clean and beautiful again... And that includes our nation’s capital, which is a horrible killing field. We will be, very soon, very proud of our capital again, Washington, D.C."
 
Same speech, "the [MANGA] movement has never been about me. It has always been about you. It’s your movement."
 
We have a contender for thread winner, same speech:

"Every day, I will strive to honor the trust you have placed in me, and I will never, ever let you down. I promise that. I will never let you down."
 
Same speech, about building military ships: "In fact, I had a little design change and we gave them a tremendous for, essentially, what we used to call destroyers. These are now the most beautiful. They look like yachts.

I said, “We have to take the bow, and we have to make it a little nicer, and a little point at the top instead of a flat nose.” And the people at the shipyards said, “This guy sort of knows what he’s doing.” We had the most beautiful ships, right, governor"
You're not serious?
 
It’s not like I’m unaware of the nonsense regularly ingested by the public from a multitude of sources political in our society, from all sides.

It’s just that it’s getting harder to hear the increasing level of things Trump is saying regularly that folks are taking in and not shouting down. They just seem to acceptingly take it all in. Regardless that the least bit of fact checking readily shows it’s … well… unmitigated bull cookies.

It is cult like.
