What does this mean? He doesn’t want rally attendees to do the salute because people said it was creepy?

She does not know how to play poker.  
The move here was to check-raise. Say something bad about the salute.  
Then the ‘Look at the MAGAites perfectly aping the Nazi salute.’ all-in after the turn.  
She went all-in after the flop and it’ll probably chase everyone off the pot.

Very possibly that criticism came from the RNC, which has leverage over Trump: they’re paying his legal bills…and can stop.

The existence of numerous photos of Trump rally-goers doing what looks very much like a “Sieg Heil” salute may bring out a _small_ number of longing-for-Hitler voters—but has the potential to absolutely tank Republican chances among _millions_ of less-radical right-leaning voters.

My guess is that Rona Romney Whateverhernameis laid down the law to Donald: ‘no more photos, or we stop paying your bills.’

Trump decides, at a rally, that we have to “keep our country gay:”

I’m sure it was an attempt at _reductio ad absurdum_, though that only works if people think that a mermaid can’t be Black. (Because all real life mermaids are white?)

If you’re not a racist though, that joke doesn’t land.

One caveat though… Trump as a mermaid does make sense if you consider that after the NY AG sues him into oblivion, he’ll be underwater. In that sense I’m sure many people do want to see him as a mermaid.
