      Is there a specific reason why, or just… Trump bad?

      Again, don’t get me wrong, Trump bad, but we gotta have standards.

        Because it has to be deciphered like a secret code to be understood.

        We’ve gotten normalized to how he rambles and meanders around subjects but his speech is far from coherent, imo.

          It does not have to be “deciphered”. C’mon, now. It might seem kinda strange when it’s written out, but this is a completely normal sentence to say. The only way I can see this being misconstrued in good faith is maybe if English wasn’t someone’s first language, but if literally anyone besides Trump said this it wouldn’t even raise an eyebrow, let alone be headline worthy.
