“oxymoronic: a nativist who canāt really speak his native tongue.”
āThereās being crude with language, thereās being loose with it, and then thereās being Trump, who uses words the way a toddler does marbles, grabbing the ones that are most bluntly colorful and tossing them into the air just because he can.
Trump is as inept at English as he is at governing. Heās oxymoronic: a nativist who canāt really speak his native tongue.
Too harsh? I direct you to āperfect.ā That is how, over and over, he has characterized his telephone conversation with the president of Ukraine, and seldom has a term existed in such tension with truth.
