you say: “We all know how a ‘complicated subject’ is very liable to be ‘botched up’ when said in one language and translated into another.”

There was no problem in the language - just the brain.

Sorry, I wasn’t suggesting that HE was misquoted or taken out of context.

I was thinking how idiotic twisted statements translate to the people he was trying to reach....

Didn’t we have a President that was trying to be ‘cute’ and say something in German and ended up saying he was a bear or ice cream cone or something?
Not sure but think it may have been JFK trying to say he was a ‘Berliner’.

Hate to say it BUT if you ever see me ‘praise’ this idiot (only if he steps down today) you can figure I started drinking again...HA...
