NextImg:'Visibly Showing Disgust': Trump Town Hall Audience Wasn't Buying His 'Stream Of Lies'
LOADINGERROR LOADING

Donald Trump faced a rare non-MAGA audience on Wednesday during a Univision town hall event featuring undecided Latino voters.

And it didn’t go well for the ex-president.

One former Republican offered Trump the “opportunity” to win back his vote ― then confronted Trump directly over his role in the Jan. 6 insurrection, his botched response to the COVID-19 pandemic, and how many members of his own administration have since turned against him.

“I’m curious how people so close to you and your administration no longer want to support you, so why would I want to support you?” Ramiro Gonzalez asked. “Your own vice president doesn’t want to support you now.”

Based on the body language in the room, Trump’s answers to that and other questions didn’t seem to be winning many people over ― and the former president’s critics on social media pointed that out:

Not sure we've ever seen anything like this before. The audience at Trump's Univision town hall is visibly showing their disgust over and over for Trump as he lies about January 6. pic.twitter.com/f2pu8pPkj9

Trump, of course, answered with a stream of lies.

But these women in the audience don’t look like they were buying them. https://t.co/6He7ih8B4D pic.twitter.com/pB7mj0feAz

Ramiro Gonzales — asking this question, needs to have a parade thrown for him. He never needs to buy a beer in any bar anywhere in America — ever again. https://t.co/i63BnjVjle

It's been a long time since Donald Trump was in a room full of people who were visibly not buying what he was selling. And he doesn't know what to do. https://t.co/JFnJGoK5LK

Siri, show me a dude who is ABSOLUTELY not buying the bullshit Trump is peddling. https://t.co/4g9xnBDux2

Ramiro Gonzales did what few have dared. I am in awe of the man. Trump’s response drove Ramiro’s comments home. https://t.co/N6UHCgpsIN

Carlos Aguilera of Florida is the real MVP here; respect for asking this fool a real question about climate. Satisfying watching him give an answer a first grader would know is garbage https://t.co/WiCJqGeGbv

The look on these people’s faces as they struggle to listen to his total batshit answer to a reasonable question asked by a voter whom you’d think he instead would want to persuade, I feel so bad for them https://t.co/3m9RDNyeIf

Trump is toast, the audience didn't buy a word of it.

What a disgrace of a human to say January 6th was a day of love when it will go down as one of the most tragic and consequential attacks on the US Capitol in american history in which Trump is directly responsible for!

Excellent question from Jorge for Trump: "I've worked for years with these hands, hunched over, picking broccoli & strawberries..this hard work is mostly done by undocumented. If you deport them, who would do this work -- and how much would our food cost?" Trump: No answer. https://t.co/1yI87CHFbM

He doesn’t know how to answer these questions for anyone but his base. https://t.co/Me2r2COyn7

Asked about his failures directly to his face and all Trump has is lies and election denialism. You can tell the questioner knows he’s lying too. Quite a thing to watch . https://t.co/FtmviniY88

“The mixing of the sand and water”

As ever, he speaks like a six year old, he has no knowledge of what he speaks, he lies in every breath and it’s genuinely embarrassing for American that he is neck and neck in the polls for president. That anyone takes this man seriously. https://t.co/5LUJ3iNT5N
