Anonymous sources in the Daily Mail? That's your idea of evidence? Also here's a tip for you: Lancashire is not London.
Just as a reminder, here's what Trump actually said:
Where's the evidence for that?
It really doesn't say much for the intelligence of Trump supporters that this is all that it takes for them to buy such nonsense stories. Put an anonymous quote on a right-wing source and you'll believe anything.
He lies. It's part of his strategy. Embrace it, and continue to support him because you like his policies. Don't be one of the suckers who actually believes his nonsense.

Trump's policies so far have been 1.) ease income taxes, 2.) gun control is not changing, 3.) illegal immigration is a problem. 4.) Our trade deals with China are bad.
There is nothing extreme or insane about these policies and you probably need psychiatric help if you think they are seriously controversial issues.

I'm more concerned with how he wants to kill Snowden and start torturing people again.
But like I said, it's fine if you support his policies. Just acknowledge that the man is a liar, because otherwise he's playing you for a sucker.
