2016 Presidential Election: 20 WTF Moments
9. Trump: "I Could Shoot Someone And Not Lose Any Voters
In a speech so ridiculous it almost sounds like The Onion made it up, an extremely confident Trump in January remarked on the apparent loyalty of his supporters, saying, "The polls, they say I have the most loyal people. Did you ever see that? Where I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn’t lose any voters, okay? It’s like incredible."
What other politician could say something like that without committing career suicide? It's especially terrifying as it sounds like Trump's basically calling his supporters blind sheep, and the fact that uproarious laughter follows his comment makes it even worse.
