As a normal person, it is very difficult to imagine believing ANYTHING that Donald Trump says, however, Trump is NOT supported by normal people, only delusional cultists, rubes, suckers, fools, morons, and dopes. That being the case, even after seeing him do this for YEARS, there are still Trumpers out there who actually believe him when in says “In two weeks I’ll have my fabulous health care plan all ready to unveil” or “In two weeks, we will give you all the details on my infrastructure plans”, or “We have all the proof the election was stolen, but we can’t reveal it for two weeks, but then it will shake the world, REALLY”. Reminds me of the old saying “Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me hundreds of times, Jeez! I must be a real dumbass”.
