Trump claims to "have all the best words." Lets compare them to those of other presidents.
Donald Trump communicates like no other president, rarely speaking with reporters, reading speeches by rote, and tweeting constantly, obsessively, manically, opening windows directly into his mind. While not always pretty panoramas, we see what hes thinking.
So comparing Trump to other presidents looking at thoughts on similar subjects or simply comparing Trumps best-known quotes and those of other presidents could be interesting. Lets see. (Note: Trumps quotes are in italics.)
Franklin D. Roosevelt:
Repetition does not transform a lie into a truth.
There was no collusion. Everybody knows there was no collusion.
We must especially beware of that small group of selfish men who would clip the wings of the American Eagle in order to feather their own nests.
The point is, you can never be too greedy.

Donald Trump speaks like a Kindergartener with a limited vocabulary and world view.

(24,007 posts)Well, not very many, apparently. Trumps's vocabulary is pathetically puerile. And what a ridiculous statement - "I know words." So do toddlers. And dogs. And parrots.
"I have the best words." Not even close. Trump probably wouldn't even understand half the sentences in the linked article.
