Spoiler alert – Trevor Noah didn’t like it.

Then again, most of the watching world, and even Piers Morgan, didn’t like it.

Donald was up to his usual tricks during his rally at Williams Arena in Greenville, North Carolina, resting easy in the fact that his supporters are unable to tell the difference between socialism and communism.

While taking aim at his current favourite four Democratic congresswomen, Trump’s supporters broke out into a “send her back” chant, referencing Ilhan Omar.

Like the coward that he is, he has now claimed that he “was not happy with it. I disagree with it”, and “would certainly try” to stop any similar chants at a future rally.

Sure didn’t seem unimpressed during the rally.

Anyway, here’s Trevor’s take on the matter:

It’s frightening.

Even more frightening is how his statements have riled up further support amongst his base. The Atlantic has an excellent article where a reporter spoke with supporters outside that North Carolina rally:

Talking with the rallygoers, I couldn’t find one who faulted Trump for demonizing the freshman representatives, all four of whom are American citizens, calling on them to leave the United States and return to the “totally broken and crime infested places from which they came.”

A few conceded that Trump occasionally fires off an inappropriate tweet, but said his accomplishments in office overshadow any offense. If anything, they said, his language springs from an authenticity they find refreshing. None of the people I spoke with considered his comments about the congresswomen racist…

“Everything he says is how I feel,” Stacy [above] said. “I feel like, ‘Hey, man. You hate the country, you don’t like it, you trash the country—get out of the country! Move on!’”

Something tells me Stacy has spoken angrily to many a restaurant manager.

Let’s hear from Randall Terry, 60, an anti-abortion activist from Memphis and the father of the Terry Train band members:

Trump’s comments about the congresswomen were “not even remotely racist,” Terry said. “It was only about the systems of government from where they’re from. These wenches. These disrespectful wenches criticize our country incessantly.

“Well, Ilhan Omar, go back to some Middle Eastern country where you’d be afraid to live under Sharia law! I’m of Italian descent. I don’t care what color the skin is … You don’t like America? Go back to where your ancestors are from and then try to make that country better.”

He sounds like a fun guy.

Quite interesting times we live in.
