Screw the French. They should have as much trouble decoding Trump as we do! I still have no idea what his voters heard. It seems to be whatever they were wanting to hear.

That is common among uneducated people. Thinking logically takes lots of practice. Something we seldom talk about. But Trump has additional problems in that he seems unaware of his continuing to be "a parody of himself." I.e. using the line "it will be the greatest" when that is an absurd statement. He is watching himself but can't seem to see it, it seems? < “Most of the time, when he speaks he seems not to know quite where he’s going,” Viennot said. “It’s as if he had thematic clouds in his head that he would pick from with no need of a logical thread to link them.”
