Disgraced former president Donald Trump participated in a town hall meeting Wednesday evening with undecided Latino voters that was hosted by Univision, and at the event a man suggested that the ex-head of state would have to “win back” his vote.
Ramiro Gonzalez, a Florida Republican, noted that he had been extremely upset by Trump’s actions on January 6, 2021, when thousands of his supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol.
Rather than give an actual response to Gonzalez, Trump suggested that no one had done anything wrong on Jan. 6. because “no one was killed.”
“You had hundreds of thousands of people come to Washington. They didn’t come because of me, they came because of the election,” Trump said. “Some of those people went down to the Capitol — I said, ‘peacefully and patriotically.’ Nothing done wrong. At all. Nothing done wrong.”
“Maybe we’ll get your vote,” he added. “Sounds like maybe I won’t, but that’s OK, too.”
Newsweek reports that Trump also tried to blame the rioting on others. As he did, the camera panned to three women in the audience.
“All three women can be seen sitting with their arms folded while listening to the former president speak, with the one on the far left moving her head up and widening her eyes at the point where Trump seemed to contradict himself.”
Based on all of that, it’s safe to say Trump won’t be getting Mr. Gonzalez’s vote, and until he owns up to his actions (and inaction) on Jan. 6, the failed former president doesn’t deserve anyone’s support.
