Ooooookay, if you say so, Tilly.
I’m old enough to remember when they didn’t need a dozen people to explain what the president actually meant when he said something because it was either stupid, ridiculous, or both.
So we’ve moved from
“take Trump’s rally comments and twitter account seriously, but not literally”
to
“when the President of the United States is directly addressing foreign leaders on official business, any of his statements might actually be jokes or sarcasm, so just ignore it all.”
So much winning!
I’m sure when Chinese media broadcasts Trump’s remarks to a billion people they’ll all be perceptive enough to appreciate Trump’s irony, humor, and tongue-in-cheek slant on the issue of trade between our two nations. This won’t create any misunderstandings or confusion at all.
Tongue in cheek? Could you clarify whose tongue it was, whose cheek it was in, and anatomically speaking, which cheek it was?
Good thing the Chinese doesn’t know English…
So, about a year then. I’m impressed.you type really well for a toddler!
The man left being the CEO of the world’s largest energy company to become a roustabout with a broom and a poop shovel following a parade lead by an orange haired elephant/clown.
And we are supposed to believe a SoS who has effectively been castrated because…???
Two things:
-
Duh. Of course he feels that way. He does the same thing. I mean, “who can blame a plutocrat/oligarch for being able to take advantage of his fellow citizens for the benefit of himself?”
-
More like tongue-between-cheeks. He’s tossing Jinping’s salad like it’s going out of style. When is Trump Tower Beijing planned to go up?
Butt cheek?
Is it possible for Trump to say anything without one of his minions explaining what he really meant or didn’t mean?
ignorantmoron has no sense of humor except if you think naming people, Little, Liddle or Lyin’ or Crooked is funny. Moron was deadly serious. He admires China even if it’s at this country’s expense.
First I laughed, then a vision of “tongue-in-(Donnie’s flabby)-butt-cheek” jumped in.
I have to go get the brain bleach now, darn you…
Most Chinese people probably have a better command of the English language than Trump. For one thing they likely have more than 5 adjectives at their disposal to qualify something in the superlative.
I interpret Trump’s remarks and change in attitude towards China to the likelihood that the Chinese leader effectively played him. Now, Tillerson has to try to undo some of the damage and that’s a thankless, never-ending job.
“Damn, Donnie, it looks like you have a huge snake in your trousers! Now, about those tariffs we were discussing…”
Tillerson said the President’s remarks were more “tongue-in-cheek,” but “there was also a lot of truth to it.”
Just like his conversation with Billy Bush was “locker room talk,” but there was a lot of truth to that, too.
Come on, Rex. You can say it. “He’s a fucking moron, and a fucking liar.”
Trump; No Tounge. No Tounge. I have made an unbelievable deal to open Trump Plaza in each of major cities in CHHina.
