Donald Trump gave a rambling two-hour speech at a right-wing conference where he branded the U.S. a "third-world hellhole" under President Biden's leadership. He falsely claimed the 2020 election was rigged and investigations against him are an attempt to rig the 2024 election. He threatened to revoke funding from universities and pledged to revive the Muslim ban, mass deportations, and ending birthright citizenship. Several speakers at the conference made inflammatory claims about transgender people, calling transition healthcare "Mengele-like experimentation" and referring to trans people as "freaks" and "perverts.

Cause that sounds pretty thuggish and perverse to me.
