    No, they are ashamed of the gang and hide the tattoos in code.

    I think MS 13 was something like 4 small tattoos of “pot leaf, skull, horse penis, revolver” … dunno, I forget.

    All those gang members with giant stylized “MS 13” tats are posers according to Trump. Real gangsters hide their affiliation in code!

        No he doesn’t. He knows it’s fake, but he’s lying on purpose so that he can further his agenda to deport anyone he doesn’t like to a concentration/death camp.

        If he admits that he is wrong about anything, then his entire fascist empire crumbles before his very eyes, so he doesn’t.

        Fascism relies on an overly confident leader who is perceived as infallible. Admitting wrongness opens the door to people in his cult realizing that Trump can be wrong about things in general.

        Yes, I knew that. I saw the interview. His advisors or whatever put the letters on to try and make up the story that the tattoo symbols supposedly meant those letters/numbers. Yet Trump is so fucking stupid he thought the Calibri font letters were really tattooed on and refused to admit his error. Trump wanted the interviewer to admit he was right. Trump is the stupidest person I have ever seen. He would likely not have the brains to scrub toilets for a living were he not born wealthy.

          He’s lying. He’s stupid, but he’s not literally that stupid.

          Has Trump ever been known to admit that he was wrong about literally anything in his life? No, he bends reality to suit his will.

          Part of the fascist playbook is to never admit you’re wrong.
