QOTD -- Helpful Clarifications!

 

After the Malignant Loser's promises to "root out" the "vermin" who oppose him should he regain power, people were quick to note that the language mirrored that of fascists like Hitler and Mussolini.  One MAGAt took umbrage and issued several clarifications, stepping deeper into the shit pile with each one:

... “Trump is also using projection: note that he mentions all kinds of authoritarians ‘communists, Marxists, fascists and the radical left’ to set himself up as the deliverer of freedom,” Ben-Ghiat said. “Mussolini promised freedom to his people too and then declared dictatorship.”

Steven Cheung, a Trump campaign spokesman, told The Post “those who try to make that ridiculous assertion are clearly snowflakes grasping for anything because they are suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome and their entire existence will be crushed when President Trump returns to the White House.

Cheung later clarified that he meant to say their “sad, miserable existence" instead of their “entire existence.” (our emphasis)

Whew!  Though, we think it sounded better in the original German.

What more can be said except, "You're a cunning linguist, Mr. Goebbels Cheung!"
