........................The Trump was just joking line has been tried by this administration on more than a single occasion.
He stated last month, for example, that his urging Russian hackers to find his Democratic rival Hillary Clintons emails during the presidential campaign was merely a joke as well.
Other times Trump has used his humor as an excuse not to take him seriously? When he told police officers to be rough with criminal suspects, when he challenged then-Secretary of State Rex Tillerson to an IQ test, and when he said it was treasonous for Democrats to not stand and applaud him after his State of the Union address in 2018, according to reporting from CNN.
The president claims that he has learned not to make such jokes anymore, because with the fake news, if you tell a joke, if youre sarcastic, if youre having fun with the audience you get taken too seriously, he explained, according to reporting from Vanity Fair........................................

(54,445 posts)You don't. Whether or not he was joking is determined solely by the subsequent responses. He himself makes no distinction because he KNOWS no distinction.
