In reply to the discussion: Melania's terrible English [View all]FakeNoose
(32,634 posts)I have several friends who are immigrants, who speak with foreign accents of one kind or another. Doesn't bother me at all, and I enjoy their friendship and their points of view. This is not about the accents, it's about the hypocrisy of the Chumps and people like them.
Chump's own mother came from another country, and his father was born in the U.S. to parents who raised him to speak German before he spoke English. Having fluency in a 2nd language (other than English) is a sign of intelligence and mental flexibility if nothing else.
I believe Chump's hatred of immigrants is a pretense to get the MAGAts to support him. It became another one of his dog whistles, once he learned how to get the MAGAts worked up at the rallies. He'll say anything if he thinks they'll scream and cheer for it.
