When I was still in the classroom, I had the distinct pleasure of working with students from around the world. That piggybacked with my being a language maven to cause me to collect phrases in as many languages as I could. As part of that effort, I tried to learn to curse. Hora refused to teach me to do so in Farsi, but Karim, one of my Moroccans, did clue me in to how to say in French what Donald Trump said today, on national TV, from the East Room of the White House.
I didn't get it quite that literally correct in the subject heading for this post. But as always, Mr. Trump's behavior is in harmony with his language, and his use today of this very un-Presidential word.
Here's a transcript of his rant; read it and weep, keeping in mind that so much of what it contains is untrue.
