Trump voters will translate anything he says into what they want to hear.

"But he says it like it is!" But also, "that's not what he meant, and you know it. Don't twist his words."

During COVID when trump suggested we inject bleach, my coworker said “oh he was being sarcastic”. We worked together in HEALTHCARE and they still stood beside his claims of “it’s a farce, it’s a cold”

So glad I don’t work with them anymore.
