Trump Went On Bizarre Rant About Protesters Throwing Cans Of Soup At Police: “You Have People Coming Over With Bags Of Soup — Big Bags Of Soup”

Yea. He actually said that.

Look, folks, Donald Trump has said so many weird, awful, and downright bizarre things throughout the course of his presidency, that it often becomes difficult to keep up with it all.

I mean, this is the guy who seriously floated the idea of using household disinfectants and light inserted into the human body to combat a deadly virus — that’s still raging throughout the country, by the way — has no idea when the Spanish Flu actually happened, and doesn’t seem to have any idea when airports became an actual thing.

After nearly four years of this garbage, it’s pretty easy for some of the stupid comments to just get lost in the mess of things as we keep our focus on just trying to survive this administration.

However, one pretty recent rant of Donnie’s that sort of got “lost” in the muck of things several weeks ago certainly deserves some attention now that it’s been brought to the spotlight.

Back at the end of July, as protests were really beginning to ramp up across the nation, Trump held a meeting with leaders of the National Association of Police Organizations — because it’s crystal clear which “side” his loyalty lies with.

Now, over the course of the past few months, we’ve heard a whole lot of crazy shit come out of Donald’s mouth in regard to the demonstrators that are cramping his style from coast to coast.

But folks, it just doesn’t get much crazier than the rant he went on in front of his police pals on July 31st.

I’m as serious as a heart attack when I say — the president of this nation went on an unhinged pontification about the use of cans of soup by protesters to allegedly assault police officers.

Trump began his tirade by essentially rambling through the various materials with which he believes demonstrators are physically harming law enforcement officers before declaring, “And then they have cans of soup. Soup. And they throw the cans of soup. That’s better than a brick because you can’t throw a brick; it’s too heavy. But a can of soup, you can really put some power into that, right?”

But the soup soliloquy didn’t stop there, folks. No matter how much we wish it had:

And then, when they get caught, they say, ‘No, this is soup for my family.’ They’re so innocent. ‘This is soup for my family.’ It’s incredible. And you have people coming over with bags of soup — big bags of soup. And they lay it on the ground, and the anarchists take it and they start throwing it at our cops, at our police. And if it hits you, that’s worse than a brick because that’s got force. It’s the perfect size. It’s, like, made perfect.

And when they get caught, they say, ‘No, this is just soup for my family.’ And then the media says, ‘This is just soup. These people are very, very innocent. They’re innocent people. These are just protesters. Isn’t it wonderful to allow protesting?’ No, there’s — and, by the way, the media knows it better than we do. They know what’s going on. I don’t know what’s wrong with them. They’re doing our country a tremendous disservice — I’ll say that.”

I somehow missed the President’s extended monologue last month on the use of soup as a deadly protest weapon. “Big bags of soup.” https://t.co/f5Tpsk7D9u pic.twitter.com/sCjGDzbWzv

Honestly, what can you even say about this? This guy has GOT to go.
