Tippy top. What does that really mean

[Iwasthere]

I fear for the condition of our Whitehouse. Considering Trumps world of opposites

1. It's how he plays for time when he forgets where the hell a sentence was going.

Or it's just his mind wandering into inanities, as it does.

4. I have thought that for a long time. Plus he thought it was kidspeak.

Although in part I think it was a stunningly clumsy attempt to talk to children, I agree he seems to stall for time with verbal slurry while he frantically grabs for things to say. He then immediately goes into his Greatest Hits, some well worn, familiar territory where he can spout his agenda, often wildly inappropriately.

10. I thought this too.

He is terribly awkward around kids.

2. I think he actually forgot the name of the building he lives and works in.

And the whole tip top tippy top was part of his cover up that the building is called the White House and he just forgot it.

3. My daughter is over 30..

She lives out of state, so I can't easily ask her children to translate for me. I stopped talking baby talk about 25 years ago.

5. It means deterioration of his language center

The neurons that connect ideas to language are going away, so he struggles to express his limited thoughts. Oh, and he's barking mad.

12. I remember studying this condition in 2nd or 3rd year psychology...

Wernicke's aphasia, also known as receptive aphasia,[1] sensory aphasia, or posterior aphasia, is a type of aphasia in which individuals have difficulty understanding written and spoken language.[2] Patients with Wernicke's aphasia demonstrate fluent speech, which is characterized by typical speech rate, intact syntactic abilities, and effortless speech output.[3] Writing often reflects speech in that it tends to lack content or meaning. In most cases, motor deficits (i.e. hemiparesis) do not occur in individuals with Wernicke's aphasia.[4] Therefore, they may produce a large amount of speech without much meaning. Wernicke's aphasia was named after Carl Wernicke who is credited with discovering the area of the brain responsible for language comprehension.[5] Individuals with Wernicke's aphasia are typically unaware of their errors in speech and do not realize their speech may lack meaning.[6] They typically remain unaware of even their most profound language deficits.

11. He meant to say flippy flop. He's talking about his hair.
