Gaffs In The Rose Garden

[ICU 812]

OK so there is a whole thread dedicated to mocking The First Lady and her inability to speak English with accuracy and fluidity . . . .

I say so what? English is not her mother tongue after all. It is not even her second language. Mrs. Trump grew up speaking Slovenian, a language most Americans had never heard ov before 2016. Her ability to communicate in English comes well behind German French and Italian.

My father immigrated from Hungary at age 17. When he landed at Ellis Island, he could speak Hungarian, German, Hebrew and Latin . . .oh yes, and English. He spoke English with a strong accent for the rest of his life . . .think of Henry Kissinger, but worse.

So it is understandable that the president's wife might miss the nuances of the English language, particularly in a politically charged context . . .like redoing the Rose Garden.

I agree with you 100%.

It says a great deal about those that would attack her. Imagine if John Kerry had won, his wife is, and has gone back to, Mozambique. Yep, she had black servants too.

Imagine the biggest cunt of a woman you’ve ever met and times it be 100. You now know the personality of Theresa Heinz. This comes personal experience, doing some contract work for her.

Holy fuck yous are all such experts on women, eh? One is awesome because she speaks five languages. Another is a cunt.

guess what boys ... if yous had a clue, you wouldn’t be here.

Melania Trump is the third trophy wife of the most horrendous president in the history of your country. A piece of shit so bad that he is now promoting his own family as some sort of AMERICAN royalty. A piece of shit so bad that AMERICAN streets are filled with protesters, AMERICAN hospitals are filled with dying patients and AMERICAN schools are filled with communicable disease.

Did yous notice that the Republicans have declared COVID a thing of the past?

And yous idly sit by and complain about how Biden will destroy America and casually threatens armed insurrections.

Welcome to Trumpland. Yous no longer live in the real world.

No one missed you while you were gone.

Please stay off the board if you cannot be more respectful of our President and his wife.

YR needs some serious professional Help!!

Of course there is room for criticism for just about anybody . . . .go ask my mother-in-law.

But please lets keep the discourse civil.

Sure it can be argued that President Trump is a man with flaws. Many presidents and most great men in history have recognizable flaws. The same may apply to first ladies and the wives of presidential candidates. Yet the discussion should not be directed at how they speak a second language (or a fifth) nor should the criticism be framed in misogynist name calling.

I mean, heaven forbid someone should mispronounce Sen. Harris' first name!


Folks, even though this is a political forum doesn't mean we cannot keep it civil.

[oeb11]

Well Written - ICU - the DPST party - represents Intolerance and racial identity politics.

Nothing is beyond bounds for them.

It is just fine for them to criticize the First lady's accent - but heaven forbid to 'Mispronounce" Sen harris name. That is a capital offense in their book.

marxist DPST - they mode of operation is Hypocrisy!!!

[greenbook]

Agreed, but how imperious of you to succinctly state the plainly obvious. Note that rather counter your opinion, the following comments were ad hominem attacks.

[oeb11]

To whom is the post addressed -

reminds of DPST's from Teacher Unions education looking up multisyllabic words to write.

[Tsmokies]

The trumps must keep their leader Putin proud. Even if she wears a Putin uniform to address america on the Putin clown show

[eccieuser9500]

Why didn't she just speak in her mother tongue?
