Trump praised riots in 2014

Independent, UK -In damning comments made on television in 2014, Donald Trump told Fox News that “total hell” would make America “great” again.

The then TV host made an appearance on Fox & Friends in February 2014 to condemn Obamacare and Americans who were not in work, whilst backing Vladimir Putin’s Russia.

“You know what solves it? When the economy crashes, when the economy goes to total hell and everything is a disaster,” Mr Trump said in 2014.

“Then you’ll have, you know, you’ll have riots to go back to where we were when we were great”.

Mr Trump’s comments in 2014 provide condemning evidence that, amid the Covid-19 pandemic and civil unrest in cities across the US, Mr Trump believes that chaos would restore the American dream.
