I feel like he used to seem crazy, but it was like a Tik Tok trend you don't get, but with racism, and there's an audience for it, but ever since he got on that Hannibal Lecter thing... I think NOW it's just crazy

What about eating the cats and dogs?

Racist, but everyone is just making fun of it. "They're rapists" struck a chord and fueled whole news cycles where the pearl clutching only spread the word. Eating the dogs and cats is a Tik Tok song meme everyone is laughing at them about because it's so absurd and dumb. Granted it's not been great for the residents of Springfield, but it's a "Kamablah"-style rhetorical whiff I can't see 2016 Trump making.
