I like him because he talks like I do. He speaks plainly and without all the PC.
Cut through all the crap. Trump just talks like normal people talk. The Left, the MSM, the politicians, and the D.C. Beltway have a Leftist politically-correct language that the rest of us loathe and despise. It isn’t about a Trump language “code.” It’s about ignoring the Leftist PC code.
“Telling the truth in a time of universal deceit is a revolutionary act” - Orwell
The truth is so foreign a concept they feel a need to translate it for us.
We recognize it for ourselves.
Wow, the CFR speaks.
Trump doesn’t couch things in a bunch of meaningless, feel-good politician drivel. Or as in Obama’s case, haughty nonsense.
The elitists make fun of his repetition of phrases like “believe me” and descriptors like “the best” or “the greatest.” I see nothing wrong with those words. Shouldn’t everyone in office aspire to those things?
At least we can chuckle at articles like this trying to explain plain common sense speak. Flat out honesty instead of nuanced double talk.
I wonder? Do we also chuckle differently?
You summed it up perfectly.
The Elites are all inbred, squat to pee snow flakes.
Don’t care to explain anything.
What’s in Your Wallet?
Do not hate these sad mortals. Be loving and patient. It is not just hyperbole to call leftwing thought a mental disorder, they really are disordered. Although certainly we must defeat them at the ballot box to keep our nation safe, please resist the temptation to be scornful.
I don’t pay attention, nor do I care what the haughty, lying Left and their MSM minions say. Their attacks are a badge of honor. Ignore ‘em. They’re a bunch of jackals. We’re the lions and we’ll roar, blast, and chase them out of their liars and send them running.
The official organ of the CFR is Foreign Affairs. But Foreign Policy magazine is not far off.
What an incredible steaming pile of BS. They fashion themselves to be so sophisticated when all that is at play is someone telling the truth for a change - so rare a commodity that today few can recognize it.
The subject article references another FP article which states " Trump and his supporters seem to be adherents to a strong version of what linguists call the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis — the idea that the language we use has an effect on our thinking and the way we perceive the world. There’s only one thing the Trump campaign seems to sincerely believe, in other words — namely, that if it says something enough times, no matter how disconnected from truth or logic, other people will begin to believe it."
Again, but this commits a juvenile logical fallacy - that if a is not true, then the only alternative is not a. If what Trump says, literally is untrue, then the only explanation is that he hopes to make it true by repeating it often enough.
Of course that is not the case. One's ability to believe how a group of miscreants has messed up a task, has nothing to do with the point, which is really, "you lot are fired, and I've got to bring someone else in to do the job that you are so obviously incapable of doing."
And, among those who have been shown the door for their incomprehension of their jobs are the journalists, commentators and authors of this kind of rubish. So low are the editorial standards of FP that this kind of juveniles sophistry survives even a first read, much less onto a printed page in the journal.
Mr. Trump speaks as an American.
He does NOT speak ‘for the world’. He speaks to, and for, me.
The time for America to turn FROM ‘globalism/one world’ nonsense has come.
We were never ‘designed’ to be part of the rest of the world. It was ‘the rest of the world’, at our onset, that was the quagmire of heraldry, familial monarchies, and foreign rule.
This is the reason we are sometimes hated, and once feared, for we bring the idea of the individual ABOVE any monarchy.
You should see it up close when these people try to intersect with the physical world, like get a qualified welder around to their homes to fix something.
For me, I don't give a ***k what he says nor how he says it because it is what I say.
They're not prisses when it comes to oral diarrhea.
They just use all the Alinsky tactics to try to sound better.
