Trump, referring to his recent indictments, mocked President Joe Biden, saying, “Let’s indict the mother******,”
This might be the first time a running candidate used this language on campaign. The things he normalizes… so many.
To be clear, I say fuck and derivatives so much that I couldn’t possibly count how many in a day. But this is a presidential campaign. He never stops pushing the envelope.
