For some strange reason, Donald Trump seems to have a bizarre obsession with large household appliances. During a speech not long ago, he accused the Democrats of “trying to take away your washers and dryers” and now, he’s weirdly claimed to have seen someone in the middle of shoplifting a refrigerator.
The bizarre remarks came during the scandal-ridden former president and 2024 Republican frontrunner’s big National Rifle Association of America (NRA) speech in Pennsylvania.
“They rush into the store and they walk out with television sets and… I mean, I saw one the other walking out with a refrigerator,” Trump told the gun-toting crowd. “He’s got this massive… I said, ‘He’s a pretty strong guy, right?’ Can you believe it?”
