"If you are for gun control, then you are not against guns, because the guns will be needed to disarm people. So it's not that you are anti-gun. You'll need the police's guns to take away other people's guns. So you're very Pro-Gun, you just believe that only the Government (which is, of course, so reliable, honest, moral and virtuous.) should be allowed to have guns. There is no such thing as gun control. There is only centralizing gun ownership in the hands of a small, political elite and their minions."*
~ ~ ~ Stefan Molyneux

'My father gave me a small loan of a million dollars.'

'I think I am actually humble. I think I’m much more humble than you would understand.'

"I will build a great, great wall on our southern border, and I will have Mexico pay for that wall. Mark my words."

"I will be phenomenal to the women. I mean, I want to help women."

"I have a great relationship with African Americans, as you possibly have heard. I just have great respect for them. And they like me. I like them."

"It's really cold outside, they are calling it a major freeze, weeks ahead of normal. Man, we could use a big fat dose of global warming!"

"I love the poorly educated."

Did Trump really say that?

I just looked it up. He did say that. He really did say that!

Now don't get me wrong. At face value, we should love everyone. I'll have to listen to the context.

No, he didn't, CC. From the Oxford Dictionary of Quotations. The underlining is mine.

"My good friends, for the second time in our history, a British Prime Minister has returned from Germany bringing peace with honour. I believe it is peace for our time. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Go home and get a nice quiet sleep. "

It is commonly misquoted.

I don't remember back that far. I CAN say that it was one of the biggest wampeters in History.
