Eh, we all do that.. no worries. But I was thinking, regarding his tweets, a little word like “bad” gives you more spaces in your tweets, right? I don’t tweet.

Alex Wayne, White House reporter for business, Bloomberg News tweets:
What’s a Q?
Excellent point. But where I notice it the most is when he speaks.
Perhaps this is all a tempest in a teapot and he has always spoken like this, but when the 2016 primary first started heating up, Trump’s use of simple vocabulary was one of the first things my ear noticed. If I had time, I’d scour old tapes of Trump interviews and try to get a feel for differences between then and now. If I had a TON of time, I’d write some software to analyze speech difference for me.
BTW, changes in speech habits can signal brain changes. I am NOT saying that Trump has dementia or anything. Just pointing out a fact. The example I recall was an analysis of Agatha Christie. Her vocabulary became much more limited in her last few novels. And IIRC her plots became much more vague. You can probably find a discussion of that somewhere on the internet.
Aside from his odd (to me) vocabulary, nothing about Trump strikes me as if he were mentally impaired. Quite the contrary. And I have 3 possible explanations for the vocabulary.
And reality sets in.
Petey, your common sense is valuable to the stew.
The hive mind approves.
