Smyrna:

Somebody grab that man by the twitter

Not even Melania should be forced into that.

Let’s just agree on “ewww”.

Hell, even my son knows from Scouts that not letting occasional natural fires clear deadfall just makes fires worse in the long run… and some trees require fire to make their seeds viable.

And what does Mr. Golf Course Agronomy know about “properly utilizing” water?

merickson · 2018-08-06T00:14:02.252Z

“[water] is being diverted into the Pacific”

No, the Pacific is where it would go if folks left it alone.

My first inclination would be to treat this as Tump’s version of a 57 state moment. But, listening to Trump’s pronouncements, we’re already up over 5700 states.

Blackwolf · 2018-08-06T00:32:58.449Z

Not even the most ardent Trumpist would contend that science is Donald’s strong suit.

Well, maybe Alfie.

CaughtInTheMiddle · 2018-08-06T01:14:13.212Z

Remember, Trump is one of them.

I cannot wait until we have a President who can speak in complete sentences again.

Make America Speak In Compete Sentences Again!

MASICSA!

And yet… it’s strangely understandable.

Just because he has given us enough practice at deciphering his gibberish doesn’t mean we shouldn’t expect him to figure out basic English.

But anything to defend him, right?

Maybe Trunp is not as racist as people here.

Why Grammar Snobbery Has No Place in the Movement

There’s a difference between appreciating language and being a snob. And the last place that we need grammar snobbery is in social justice movements. And not just because getting hung up on subject-predicate agreement is distracting to the job at...

Be good little libbies and toe the line now. Simon says good English is bad. Take two steps back.

You could be correct…he may not be. Nothing he said in that tweet points either way though.

You might have a point if Trump were using ebonics or was being intentionally bad at grammar. Neither of those things is going on here.

There is a world of difference between allowing the occasional “y’all” into a work document and completely ignoring the subject/predicate dynamic of language.

Just because you might invite your homie over to the hizzouse for some spades and 40’s doesn’t mean it has a place in functional conversation outside of said hizzouse.

Trump is always so eager to show what a complete idiot he is, while his like-minded supporters cheer.

Cynic · 2018-08-06T23:49:39.389Z

While that seems silly on it’s face, and the word “microaggression” makes me cringe… they do state that “linguistic and writing research has shown clearly for many decades that there is no inherent “standard” of English.” as the fundamental philosophy behind this.

So behind all the PC crap, is the question of what is actually “proper” or the “standard”, and who defines it; they apparently have decided that is not fixed and is defined by region/culture to some degree.

But honestly, it was hard for me to even try to rationalize that, bunch of nonsense

Tguns · 2018-08-07T00:09:01.709Z

Trump is all sorts of sciencey, for instance take his scientific theory of relativeofme. It states, the female form becomes exponentially more attractive when they are a relative of me…like my daughter.
