I'm loving all this Rethuglian foolishness. Trump--what a
maroon! For years I taught writing to 4th and 5th graders. There comes a point
where many sort of burst into filling pages with words, but don't really say
anything. It's very reminiscent of the Donald on the stump. I would tell my
students that if I can take the topic of what they've written and switch in
another one--and it STILL makes sense--then they need to do better.
Let's apply this technique to something Trump has said.
Let's use his statements about the Bible. Here's his quote:
“The Bible, is special. The Bible, the more you see it, the
more you read it, the more incredible it is. I don’t like to use this analogy,
but like a great movie, a great, incredible movie. You’ll see it once it will
be good. You’ll see it again. You can see it 20 times and every time you’ll
appreciate it more. The Bible is the most special thing.”
Now let's change the word "Bible":
“The Gay Porn, is special. The Gay Porn, the more you see
it, the more you read it, the more incredible it is. I don’t like to use this
analogy, but like a great movie, a great, incredible movie. You’ll see it once
it will be good. You’ll see it again. You can see it 20 times and every time
you’ll appreciate it more. The Gay Porn is the most special thing.”
You know, in this case, I'd be willing to say that the
edited version actually makes more sense....
