No he’s just lying. And the audience loves it. They know he’s lying, but when normal people are appalled by it that means they’re being triggered and being owned, so that’s good enough for them

But do they believe it? They can’t possibly. So I guess if they like it they see it as some sort of joke exaggeration that has some sort of truth in it, but even if that was the case don’t they all themselves why he’s wasting time making jokes about something that’s not happening?

As someone who grew up in a small southern town, it's quite possible a lot of people believe it. The rest just love the entertainment value of it. For those that believe it, its because the south is poor in a lot of areas so those people don't travel outside of their hometowns for most of their lives and a lot of them don't desire to. They're comfortable where they are and the rest of the world can seem crazy when the only representation you have to lean on for places outside of your home is Fox News.

Are you telling me that there are people who still believe anything Trump says is the truth? Man, I thought that ship sailed a long time ago.
