    No, he didn’t. Here’s what Donald Trump said verbatim:

    “I said, that’s Silence of the Lamb. You know what that is? Has anybody seen Silence of the Lambs? Hannibal Lecter, how great an actor was he? You know why I like him? Because he said on television on one of the: ‘I love Donald Trump,’ so I love him. I love him. I love him. He said that a long time ago and once he said that he was in my camp I was in his camp. I don’t care if he was the worst actor I’d say he was great to me.”

    Go ahead and keep denying reality. I’m done with your pathetic attempts at gaslighting.

      It is ambiguous. “Hannibal Lector, how great an actor was he?” This could mean Trump thinks the actor is called Hannibal Lector, or the “he” could refer to the guy playing Hannibal Lector, which would be Anthony Hopkins. Like a lot of stuff that comes out of Trump’s mouth, it is an inarticulate mush, with the true meaning implied rather than explicit, and not worth arguing about.

      So you have the quote where he says movie, character, actor and you still either lack the comprehension for it or you feel the need to argue maliciously in order to find something wrong with Trump

      Do better, there are lots of things he does wrong
