Trump Repeats Hannibal Lecter Comparison in RNC Speech
Former President Trump continues to use the fictional character to vilify migrants, drawing criticism and confusion.
- Trump's speech at the Republican National Convention included a comparison of migrants to Hannibal Lecter.
- He claimed without evidence that countries are sending criminals and mentally ill individuals to the U.S.
- Trump has used this comparison multiple times in past speeches and rallies.
- Critics argue the analogy is incoherent and misleading.
- Trump's fascination with the character reflects his broader use of pop culture in political rhetoric.
