Trump’s words

When you do and say things that are so offensive, insulting and scary, that you offend, anger and frighten tens of millions of Americans and hundreds of millions of people around the world, and, if that causes many people, news agencies and politicians to speak harshly against you and your ideas, that is not a conspiracy, it is a consensus.
