At some point in his babbling, Trump said that “No one was harder on Russian than me.” Because he thinks everyone who’s ever heard him has the attention span of a goldfish. Trump and his lickspittle toady Tucker Carlson are racing after the “We Love Ukraine” bandwagon, trying to jump on. ---

> [@Roger\_That](#): > > Does anyone get the feeling that this ploy (“No, Daddy, my little brother stole the money from your wallet—I wasn’t anywhere near your wallet”) may have been successful for little Donald once or twice? In fact, this was said to be a dynamic between young Richard Nixon and his brother Donald Nixon. According to a critical bio I read, their father was in the habit of strapping them when displeased, and young Richard learned the art of lying as needed so that his brother would get the strapping. ---

how he was bragging about them when he picked them.Whenever Trump goes on another unhinged gratuitous rant about how terrible one of his own former personally selected subordinates is, I like to check back and see > [@](#): > > 12/07/2018 […] > > Trump told reporters outside the White House that Barr, who served as attorney general under President George H.W.

Wow. That is quite the read. He loves turning every day nouns into Proper Nouns. Did he learn that in a Special Class at the Wharton School? ---

> [@wguy123](#): > > He loves turning every day nouns into Proper Nouns. IANA linguistics scholar, but doesn’t German capitalize all its proper nouns? Whenever I see this tendency in someone’s writing I wonder if they aren’t somehow genetically predisposed to German grammar and also, therefore, to authoritarianism. I realize those are logical leaps worthy of Bob Beamon, but DJT is evidence in favor. ---

Like many a semi-literate, he seems to think that capitalizing words is a way of giving them special emphasis. ---

All nouns are capitalized in German. I think Trump’s problem is that he’s semi-literate.
