Why would Trump make conspiracy claims that Haitians are eat...

Someone’s cat went missing and they blamed the Haitians (the key issue is that things are going poorly in the town leading to tension) and it got publicised so Trump saw it. Then the cat came back. Haitians culturally do eat cats and dogs and use them for voodoo so that is another thing kicking the conversation along (in addition to memes and great tunes).

I think it is like the Marine Rapper’s version of They’re eating the dogs. They’re eating the cats.

Trump is into Border protection so either he was very quick to believe it or he knew it would be a media attention grabber/free publicity and everyone would be talking about the bad outcome in that town whether or not pets get eaten.

I’m wondering about attachment and transference with the therapist and the idea of escape and fantasy? How much do you think your strong feelings, constant thoughts, desires to be with your therapist are a way to escape from your present life? I wonder if the transference serves another purpose than to show us our wounds and/or past experiences, but is a present coping strategy for managing what we don’t want to face (even if unconsciously) in the present—-current relationships, life circumstances, etc. Can anyone relate to this concept of escape in relation to their therapy relationship? How does this play out for you?

Why would Trump make conspiracy claims that Haitians are eating pets in Ohio?
