Yeah, well you wouldn't have had to gone out and saved people if you didn't build a city in a swamp.

Ever been to Houston?

dd... roos is making a valid observation.  I believe it despite attempts to deflect it.  President Trump often speaks in a disjointed, simple and poorly constructed style.  It was especially so at the FEMA session.   It is plainly and honestly true.

@Lando Lincoln
Sure he does.  What I can't figure out is why people still get in a tizzy over it.

Seriously

They've found organic compounds on Mars but people would rather talk about Trump misspeaking, something he does just about every day.

Of course.  I like it when everyone gets along and there's peace amongst all members.

But, but but, @RoosGirl I thought you're purpose in life was to piss off @Frank Cannon at least once
a day? FYI, that is a good thing and you are very talented.

LOL  I wondered if anyone else that read this thread would notice that.

I noticed the number candles seemed off, but I didn't want to put my ignorance on full display (today).

Bullshit.  Did you watch the video?  I did.  They're not disjointed quotes at all.  It's exactly what he said.  It just seems disjointed because he speaks like a fool.

Trump says stupid things all the time, no big deal, since he usually gets the policy right.

Such B.S.! In case you missed it, Texans got out there by the 1000s to help other Texans. Louisianans pitched in as well ... and Texans returned the favor. My cousin was one 100s that used their own boats to go out daily in the Houston area helping survivors.

Yer new here ain'tcha? So I'll help you out this time.  That was sarcasm.  Everyone but you knew that, but now you do too so all is well with the world.

In Trump’s way of speaking [. . .]

I think we should mandate the use of English in government.

Don't be going off on a tangent and running off the newer members.  Besides He knows sarcasm.  He laughed at my one liner.  You need to work on your delivery.  Now skedaddle .  Let the men work

The problem really wasn't that he said something wrong (again). The problem was he said something wrong, we were kinda discussing what was the wrong part of it, and then big mouth tries telling us the article made it all up, things were taken out of context, sentences were added out of order, I'm picking on Trump, you name it.

Can't.  Arizona tried that, and the Ninth Circus threw it out (SCOTUS refused to hear the case).

I prefer swimming. I'll even refrain from shaving my legs so I'm less aquadynamic.  :smokin:
