Donald Trump, the first former U.S. president ever convicted on 34 felony counts, faced a torrent of scorn and ridicule after he declared, “A criminal is a criminal, they generally stay a criminal,” during a rally in St. Cloud, Minnesota on Saturday.
Alternative headline: Trump finally tells the truth about something.
This is lacking context. He was paraphrasing something I believe is implied to have been said (or at least believed) by Bukele(the president of El Salvador)
Trump was talking about this country dumping all their criminals in the USA. He said:
"He liked to say he did something with a social experiment. A criminal is a criminal as they generally say a criminal and we don’t have time to figure it out. But we’re not going to take criminals and we’re going to get rid of
Yeah that’s fair, I’m not giving him the benefit of the doubt so much as just how I heard it(based on his voice, he wasn’t talking normally- instead he sounded like he was quoting), but there’s definitely two possible ways to interpret it.

Trump / Vance 2024: A criminal is a criminal as they generally say a criminal
It’s kind of Gilbert and Sullivan-esque. G&S would have a field day with trump.
Shouldn’t he be getting rid of himself then?
One would think so, but he’s clearly not that self aware.
He’s not a criminal in his mind. Because he’s a nutter.

Even if he is quoting someone… he’s quoting them for the justification of getting rid of them.
He clearly agrees with the statement.
Exactly what benefit is being given to him by allowing his complete lack of self awareness?
Lol, context doesn’t help him at all. It sounds like he’s referring to the USA based on the words immediately around the statement.
So this is just another one of demented don’s stupid slips of his tangled tongue.
