Donald Trump just ruined the annual Thanksgiving pardon. This should just be a normal, wholesome tradition. You parted the damn turkeys. It should be pretty easy. Not for Donald Trump, who used the pardon ceremony, again, which is supposed to be fun and lighthearted, to attack Governor Pritzker of Illinois by calling him a very fat slob. Here, play this clip.
of every newspaper. It's out of control. The mayor is incompetent and the governor is a big fat slob. He ought to invite us in, say, please make Chicago safe. We're going to lose a great city if we don't do it quickly. Make
And then Donald Trump goes on to talk about how instead of pardoning these turkeys, he was thinking about sending them to the terrorist confinement center in El Salvador. So he's making jokes about sending Americans unlawfully to concentration camps in foreign countries. That's what he's doing right now. Here, play this clip.
But instead of pardon, some of my more enthusiastic staffers were already drafting the paperwork to ship Gobble and Waddle. straight to the terrorist confinement center in El Salvador. And even those birds don't want to be there. You know what I mean. Those are tough. I'd like to thank the president of that country. They do a rather efficient job. It's going to be the largest prison in history. I've never seen anything like it. And a lot of people are behaving on our streets now. You know, Washington, D.C. is a safe — is considered a safe zone. This was one of our most unsafe places anywhere in the United States. It is now considered a totally safe city.
What happened at the White House Thanksgiving Pardon that ruined the tradition?
I won't tell you about murders. We're having murders, like a lot of murders, on a weekly basis. We haven't had a murder in six months.
And there was once upon a time where the president was a respected tradition and you would show your kids these ceremonies. This is just awful, awful. Here he is further attacking Pritzker and saying that he's fat, he's a fatso, fat slob. I shouldn't call him a fat slob, but he's a fat slob. Here, play this clip.
You're not gonna have these crimes that are making the newspapers and the front page of every newspaper and television story, news story. will make Chicago a safe place very quickly. I looked at the various cases, granting mercy, discovering that the terrible trauma that everyone's going through. And I had a little bit of a Pritzker joke.
How did Donald Trump attack Illinois Governor Pritzker during the turkey pardon?
I was going to talk about Pritzker in size, but when I talk about Pritzker, I get angry because he's not letting us do the job. So I'm not going to tell my Pritzker joke. They have a very cute little joke, you know. Some speechwriter wrote some joke about his weight. But I would never want to talk about his weight. I don't talk about people being fat. I refuse to talk about the fact that he's a fat slob. I don't mention it.
Then Donald Trump goes on and starts lying about the fact that there's no murders in Washington, D.C. He said that we haven't had a murder in six months in Washington, D.C. There's actually been a lot of murders in D.C. 15 in June, 15 in July, 8 in August, 5 in September, 8 in October, 5 in November. Here, play this clip.
We're having murders, like a lot of murders, on a weekly basis. We haven't had a murder in six months. And it doesn't sound good even to say that we haven't had a murder in six months. But when you are averaging one and even sometimes two a week and you haven't had one in six months, you can walk with your family down the middle of any street, go to a restaurant.
