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.
