Trump Mocked After Claiming Magnets Don't Work Underwater at Rally

'All I know about magnets is this, give me a glass of water, let me drop it on the magnets, that’s the end of the magnets,' Trump said during a rally in Iowa Friday

Social media users can't stop scratching their heads after watching former President Donald Trump insist at an Iowa rally that dropping magnets in water causes them to stop working.​

​

"All I know about magnets is this, give me a glass of water, let me drop it on the magnets, that’s the end of the magnets," Trump declared from the podium in Mason City Friday night.​

​

He was criticizing a decision by the Navy to use giant magnets to lift elevators by plane onto an aircraft carrier (floating on the water) — instead of using equipment from Midwestern company John Deere.​

​

"Why didn't they use John Deere? Why didn't they bring in the John Deere people? Do you like John Deere? I like John Deere," Trump gushed.​

​

The Republican front-runner, everybody.

And here, I thought it'd be hard to top the drinking bleach bit.

-- A2SG, just goes to show, when ya think Trump hits rock bottom, he's still got a shovel...

If he said it, it must be true. Right?

His comment also seems to imply he thinks aircraft carriers do work underwater!

I feel sorry for John Deere. Not fair for them to be associated with this stupidity.

"Stupidity"? People want him to be president.

Do your own research, people. You'll see. Trump is right as usual.

I'm glad I don't get the reference.

I'm glad I don't get the reference.

The band Insane Clown Posse (ICP) has a song called "Miracle" that includes the line "F------ magnets, how do they work?"

Nope, not reading anything after clown. Had to work with a devoted juggalo, never again.

Had a family member who went through a Juggalo phase. Glad she snapped out of it, but I learned way too much about those guys during that period, lol.

Let's just say it was a widely mocked line.

For once something where people can actually do that. Not check the internet. Instead get a couple of magnets and some water and actually test it.

And unlike drinking bleach it won't harm you.

Now I assume he was referring to electromagnets instead of permanent and knows that water and electricity don't mix. Of course, you can waterproof electrical systems, but I'm going to at least give him some benefit of the doubt here.

You are too generous:
