Internet floored by ex-MAGA voter's skeptical reaction to Trump's J6 'day of love' remark

A participant in a town hall Wednesday night became a social media meme as his head bobbed in doubt when former President Donald Trump tried to downplay and explain away the Jan. 6 riot as a "day of love."

At the town hall on Univision Noticias, Ramiro González, a Tampa, Florida, construction worker, said he wanted to give the MAGA leader a chance to "win back" his vote.

"Your action and say, maybe, inaction, during your presidency and last few years ... was a little disturbing to me. What happened during January 6 and the fact that you waited so long to take action while your supporters were attacking the Capitol? Coronavirus — I thought the public was misled during the coronavirus. And I feel many more lives could've been saved if we had been informed better."

González also noted that many in the Trump administration no longer support him.

"So why would I want to support you?" he asked.

Trump responded that 97 percent of people in his administration support him, and downplayed defectors saying they "get a little publicity" because of his fame.

Trump said hundreds of thousands of people came to the Capitol because they thought it was a "rigged" election.

"Some of those people came down to the Capitol. I said 'peacefully and patriotically.' Nothing done wrong at all. Nothing done wrong," he said.

As Trump started to acknowledge a "tiny" percentage of the protesters rioted, he pivoted and called it a "day of love."

That was a bridge too far for González, whose head cocked from one side to the other, visibly skeptical of Trump's explanation.

His reaction quickly became a meme on the internet, with social media users seizing on the clip.

Democratic consultant Holly Figueroa O'Reilly wrote on X: "THE HEAD BOB," adding three cry-laughing emojis.

"His brain is mush," former Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-IL) wrote on X.

"Look at that piece of s--- grab his ear like he can’t hear what the guy is saying," jabbed Adam Parkhomenko.

"Look at the women in the background as Trump’s spewing all this BS," wrote Amy McGrath, former U.S. Senate candidate in Kentucky.

"Siri, show me a dude who is ABSOLUTELY not buying the bulls--- Trump is peddling," quipped USA Today columnist Rex Huppke.

"She almost hurt her neck," On Democracy podcaster Fred Wellman joked of an audience member's jerking reaction when Trump said, "Nobody was killed."

"He doesn’t know how to answer these questions for anyone but his base," wrote national security attorney Bradley P. Moss.

"Trump, of course, answered with a stream of lies," wrote anti-Trump conservative George Conway. "But these women in the audience don’t look like they were buying them."
