You could’ve gone with _sovereign state_ instead of _country_.

Thanks! And it just now occurred to me that, with Tan the Conman in office, it would be _supposedly sovereign state_. 😉

Not so much “pissed off” as “what new levels of stupidity has he reached” …

He seems to have added a new wrinkle to his old racist xenophobic rants about immigrants. Now, in addition to saying that we’re flooded with criminals and asylum inmates, he adds (and I paraphrase) “…and they’re speaking languages nobody’s ever heard of. Nobody speaks these languages…”

It’s like somebody just told him that people in other countries don’t speak English, and his head exploded.

That’s a call out to his MAGA base. They’re ferinors (foreigner’s)  
Trump has traveled enough to understand that there are other languages. It probably pisses him off though.

🛑!!

Demerits applied for using the word “understand” in reference to Donnie Two Scoops. Other languages? Nah. Those are just noise, like dogs barking or grackles in the trees.

I think a lot of Trump types are rooting for Big Brother. Which is doubleplus terrifying.

I do not understand his fanbase.

He says the words, I suppose, they want to hear, but his delivery is terrible. Even in the coherent sentences he fails. He is boring, and even if I agreed with his political position, I would argue that he is boring.

He has this thing where he tails off at the end of a sentence, lowering the volume and to a certain extent the pitch. He must be the most boring public speaker I have ever listened to.

My son, age 6, is a better public speaker, with better vocabulary, and his style is to raise the volume if the last few words, because those are the one’s making the arguement.

“She can’t have that last of the cake, I didn’t get MY SHARE”

As opposed to Trump who fades out. I suspect he forgets what his point is, mid-sentance.

That doesn’t matter to them. They know that eventually he’ll say something that will get wide media coverage and they’ll be thrilled that his words are annoying (if not infuriating) Libruls.

They also love knowing that behind his tedious droning beats the heart of a true white-supremacist. That is more important to them than any actually-interesting remarks could be.

Behind the words of Trump beats the heart of a Trump-supremacist. If there was money to be made, or advantage to be gained, from praising women, minorities, or LGBTQ+, I think he’d say it.

And the next day, if there was money to be made or advantage to be gained by denying he’d said it, he’d do that, too.
