Trump fawns over violent motorcycle gang while blasting migrants: 'They voted for me'

President Donald Trump fawned over a violent outlaw motorcycle gang while simultaneously blasting criminal immigrants during an unusual and rambling press conference on Tuesday marking the anniversary of his second inauguration.

Trump spoke for more than 70 minutes, claiming during a bizarre speech and unusual slideshow presentation featuring placards of suspected criminal immigrants, that the immigrants ICE wants to apprehend were more dangerous than the notorious gang Hells Angels — dubbed a criminal enterprise by the Department of Justice.

"People that came in illegally. Many cases, they're criminals in many, many cases," Trump said. "Remember when they used to say that the people that come into our country as immigrants are very nice people? They're wonderful people. They don't commit crime. No. They make our criminals look like babies. They make our Hells Angels look like the sweetest people on earth. The Hells Angels are now considered a nice, high quality person. I like the Hells Angels. They voted for me. They protected me. Actually, believe it or not. But they make our criminals look like babies.

I, for one, think the king should use the Hell's Angels to guard him at Mar-a-Grifto. Of course, they'll need rooms. Vinca 16 hrs ago #1
