This is Trump‘Merica, speak Trumpanese!
By: Helen A. HandbasketNew York, NY - Donald Trump doesn't speak the same language as everyone else. There is a big difference between what he says and the actual meaning of his words. For example, when the President says, "Believe me" he is really saying, "I just told a big lie."
Donald often brags about hiring the "best people". Most of us would think that the “best people" should be qualified to do the job. Not Trump. In Donald's language "best people" translates as "lackeys who flatter me and promote my agenda." They can be totally unqualified. Think DeVos, Carson, Kushner, Flynn, and "the Mooch" just to name a few.
Recently, the President has said that his tax bill is "a great big beautiful Christmas present" to the American people. In truth, what he means is that, "This year everyone is getting a great big chunk of clean coal in their stocking."
Finally, there is the promise Trump made to never touch Social Security or Medicare. Translated, his words say, "If you are old and sick you'd better stake out your spot under a bridge now before all the good ones are gone."
