Brian Cox, who played Lecter in the 1986 film "Manhunter," commented to Deadline in an interview last year regarding Trump: "How the f--k can this country vote for such a f--king a----le?"

    Eat the rich just got a new meaning...

    And if you read the article, it is yet another lie. This man is simply not capable of not lying.

    Right, but the article even gave Trump the benefit of the doubt that he meant an actor that has played Hannibal. The answer was still no. Anthony Hopkins is apolitical, and no other actor who has played the character said it either(at least one called him an asshole, in fact).

    Every rambling, incoherent, traitorous "speech" this dumbfuck makes has dozens of "what the actual fuck" deranged moments that would have the right absolutely jumping-insane-frothing-spewing-shit-out-their-asses crazy if Joe Biden said even ONE of them.

    This cult needs to fuck off to Russia already. All of them.

    Biden should straight up troll the MAGA base by repeating one of trumps batshit crazy quotes. Let them take the bait and clutch their pearls. Unfortunately, I know that base is too ignorant/hypocritical for it to make any sense and it would probably do more damage than good.

    You're suggesting pointing out hypocrisy. Pointing it out is entirely ineffective. They just laugh and call it "owning the libs" because they are subverting the system and getting what they want. I wouldn't dismiss it as 'ignorant' so much as malicious.

    Hypothesis: He confused noted Trump fan and Lebaron driver, Jon Voigt, for Anthony Hopkins.

    And "porque no" means "why not?". Spanish is funny like that.

    It does not. "¿Por qué no?" means "Why not?" whereas "Porque no" means "Because not." The spelling is similar, but the lack of a space changes the meaning.

    Cool, I can do that too.

    Are you really trusting an AI over an actual speaker?

    Hey guess what?

    1. it apparently means both and we arrived at demonstrating that via the same method, automatic translation

    2. I don't care if you're the king of Spain or the president of Mexico, doesn't change the language

    3. lastly and most importantly, I was referencing a popular meme in a glib manner. That's what you're so overzealous about "correcting".

    Garbage in, garbage out. You asked it to translate ungrammatical Spanish and it gave you a translation anyway, probably because lots of people accidentally write "por qué" as "porque". It's still wrong, though.

    Anything that trump “boasts” is either entirely untrue, unreal, or just batshit insane and should be dismissed.

    ...and bothsiderists - and of course the radicalized right wing - have the gall to talk about Biden's mental condition?

    Trump’s supporters are probably saying that Lecter is now their favourite actor.

    He's like Billy Madison when he explains all that stupid shit and the principal tells him everyone in the room is stupider because of him but he loves the attention anyway

    Ted Bundy is half sonichu and Hannibal the Cannibal stans Trump. What a weird week

    One psychopath to another he probably would.

    All that orange makeup is leaking into his shriveled little brain. I wonder what other fictional character will endorse him next?

    “Scooby Doo said he loves me! So I love him. I love him. I love him”

    Okay gramps, time to go back to the home

    Hannibal wouldn’t even eat him, and the rude are normally his favorite meal.
