1. What Does That Mean?

Is that in English?

[brucefan]

2. You don't speak

Word salad?

[ProfessorGAC]

8. Well, Sure

If it's in English! I actually generally knew what sparklemoose was trying to say, no matter how poorly she said it.

I can't even begin to decipher this gibberish. I don't speak eperanto. Maybe he does and i just don't get it. (Nope, that ain't it.)

[yuiyoshida]

24. do you think he takes Language lessons from

Sarah Palin in secret?

[madokie]

3. Have to get sparkle moose to define this for us

word salad sara ain't got shit on tRump, or is it tRump ain't got shit on word salad sara?

[ProfessorGAC]

17. Still My Favorite Nickname for The Quitter

Thanks for the reminder, madokie!

[BlueStater]

7. It's what happens when a fucking moron tries to sound like he knows what he's talking about. n/t

[ProfessorGAC]

9. So, He's Speaking Moronese?

Well, that explains everything! Thanks!

[rug]

29. Nobody knows exactly.

[hatrack]

4. Least of all you, asshole

At least have the courtesy to shut your gangrenous, dripping piehole.

At least let the adults handle the next 22 days before you and the rest of the toddlers burn the house down.

[Solly Mack]

5. Toilet wisdom. You don't know what the fuck you're talking about but

you think it sounds wise when delivered from your gold-plated porcelain throne.

His followers, equally as confused by his mutterings, will decide the shortcomings are their own, so Trump must have said something deep and profound.

[HoneyBadger]

6. Reminiscent of his responses during his first debate

I actually believe that he was not involved in the hacking simply because he seems to have a very vague idea (at best) of who uses technology, how, and for what. I just can't see him saying this is the plan, we spear-phish Podesta's gmail, then we throw it on a flash drive and meet with Julian's guy......

[MountCleaners]

10. Beware of a President

...who is anti-technology. He is appealing to superstition and paranoia. I really don't trust this guy on civil liberties, either.

[Retrograde]

40. I don't think he's anti-technology per se

At least not when it benefits him. I doubt he understands all the technology behind an application like Twitter, but he's happy to use it. Unfortunately, he doesn't seem to have a clue as to how the physical world works - and no noticeable interest in finding out.

As far as civil liberties go - I'm with you there.

[maxrandb]

11. Wrong Asshole

We know EXACTLY what the fuck is going on!!!

[annabanana]

15. BINGO! . . . . . . n/t

[uponit7771]

37. +1

[milestogo]

12. Translation: Lets get rid of all the computers. I don't understand them.

But keep twitter.

[maxrandb]

23. Translation: Only "I" Know Exactly What's Going On

We are truly fucked

[smirkymonkey]

13. WTF?

Ok, this guy is really going to be the president?

[Vinca]

14. I'm sure he's done indepth research on the subject.

[tanyev]

16. Methinks he doth project too much.

[JHan]

18. He's saying this so we can ignore the forensics on what happened or...

he's really just fucking stupid.

Or maybe it's both of those things.

[deminks]

19. I feel like I have been here before somewhat.

The intellectual difference was great between the Big Dog and Smirky the Chimp. But Smirky didn't word salad. The orange menace is a distraction his whole self. Not just his tweets. A distraction from what GrOPer Congress and the Evil Cabinet are going to do to us.

[randome]

20. In other words: "I'm terrified that the evidence of Russian hacking will embarrass me. Help!"

[hr][font color="blue"][center]Stop looking for heroes. BE one.[/center][/font][hr]

[bigtree]

21. this was in response to a question about sanctions on Russia

...it was a trumpean attempt to blur and obfuscate from his position against any action at all against Russia.

Quite an amazing attempt to deceive.

[C_U_L8R]

22. The salad, it is wordy

Trump seems to love demonstrating what a moron he is, daily.

[delisen]

25. Translating Trump

We need to move on from this talk about investigating the hacking of the DNC and blaming Russia. This internet gives us speedier communications but it can never be really secure and there is no way we can ever find out who is doing the hacking.

It could be that 400 pound guy sitting on a bed in New Jersey, or a 300 pound guy sitting on a toilet in New York City. It could be some nasty 200 pound woman in California. We can never know. My point is that if we get rid of private email on the internet , we solve the private email hacking problem.

Then we call all just tweet and you will know what I am saying to you, and even better, I will know what you are saying to each other. That way we will be on the same page
and we can move ahead with our lives-me in my luxurious penthouse at Trump Tower and you at your...wherever.

The senators are planning an investigation of the hacking. After my inauguration I will explain to the senators that they don't need to investigate because it is impossible to find these hackers; that we know its not the Russians-because Russia is our friend and Putin is my BFF; and besides, I have already solved the problem. The senators will agree.
I have to explain to the senators "over time" because my Homeland Security appointee says it will take several months to complete their individual dossiers.

[gordianot]

28. That is exactly how Trump gets by with his bull shit.

He says does something outrageous then escalates to the next act. All the while people (supporters and detractors) say I can't believe he just did or said that. Incredulity is Trumps only friend while your head is spinning he moves to the next big thing. He will eat up investigations because he knows they happen at a snails pace. Trump counts on people and really poor short term memories.

[BeyondGeography]

26. He should stick to misspelled tweets

Seems to be the limit of his expository powers.

[gordianot]

27. May I remind people this asshole asked the Russians in public to hack the U.S. Government.

Trump asked a foreign power to hack not only his opponent but a former high level government official. He is taunting everyone you do not know what is going on and if you once knew you have already forgotten.

[ALBliberal]

30. Who was the former high level government official? Thanks.

[gordianot]

32. Secretary of State well known person ran for President.

[ALBliberal]

34. Thought you were referring to HRC plus another individual. Thanks.

[MineralMan]

31. This is an example of what happens when people pay no attention to

grammar and proper use of language. Gibberish happens. That's why some people, including myself, try to encourage people to write clearly, spell properly and use correct grammar and punctuation. When we have a President-elect who cannot speak or write in understandable English, we're in trouble, frankly. We're not "grammar Nazis." We're trying to help people express themselves more clearly.

If everyone took the time to read what they write and make corrections before publishing it, we might make some inroads into improving the quality of our communication. It's worth the time. It helps.

[lunasun]

33. I'm sure we all need to be watched more and our networks more secure. Only thing coming out of the

Russian attack is some trump authoritarian move on Internet use if he has anything to do with an inquiry . It will be BIGLY

[Proud Liberal Dem]

35. He sure doesn't

[haele]

36. Hmmm. I've heard ESL speakers construct better sentances than this example.

Reminds me of gibberish search key word sentences that people used put at the end of Usenet posts back in the late '90's, early 00's - or refrigerator magnet phrase kits. It's certainly comparable with those bits of performance art.
My five year old grand-daughter can construct more coherent sentences on the fly when she's trying to get her thoughts across when excited about a situation.

38. We are getting on with our lives

With every fiber of our being resisting you until you are gone from our lives forever. That is all.

[sarcasmo]
