I saw mention of this comment by Trump, and found it interpreted exactly as seen in this posting on X. Many, many times over. All making the same mistake.

So I thought about it until a lightbulb went off.
In the kitchen, I gotta replace it.
And that posting on X is a classic case of falling for what you want to believe your ears are hearing, lol. But a lightbulb went off in time.
Here’s the correct context. This is what he meant by “I’m gonna get in trouble for saying this, but I couldn’t care less.” Not that the actual remark in context is acceptable. This is Trump. But the context in the above X posting is a “radical left lunatic’s” wet dream. lol.
Actually, the article is itself off. The actual question she asked Trump was “how do we fix our country, how do we come together.” That should be spelled out.

During a Fox News interview Friday morning, Trump was asked what his administration was doing to curb extremism emanating from the political left and right in light of conservative activist Charlie Kirk’s murder Wednesday.
“I’ll tell you something that’s going to get me in trouble, but I couldn’t care less,” the president responded. “The radicals on the right oftentimes are radical because they don’t want to see crime. They don’t want to see crime.”
“They’re saying, ‘We don’t want these people coming here. And we don’t want you burning our shopping centers. We don’t want you shooting our people in the middle of the street,’” Trump added, appearing to nod to instances of right-wing vigilantism in recent years.
“The radicals on the left are the problem. They’re vicious, and they’re horrible,” Trump said. “And they’re politically savvy, although they want men in women’s sports. They want transgender for every one. They want open borders.”
