How the heck was that deflection by the media? Trump said live on national television "In Springfield, they’re eating the dogs, the people that came in, they’re eating the cats. They’re eating the pets of the people that live there".
Vance did later admit that this was just a rumor, and then encouraged people the keep on spreading it.
BTW, the immigrants in Springfield are there legally, which is another thing Trump has repeatedly lied about.
The big thing though is that they people I'm talking about who base their support of Trump on things like the eating pets things live in areas where there are not many immigrants (legal or illegal). They personally are not seeing any problems immigrant related.
All their information on this comes from Trump. And most of their information on every other issue. And even if they finally are convinced that he lied on something they never question anything else and go try to verify it.
And that's why I would consider them to be not quite up to par in the thinking department.
