—adjective
1. (of speech, writing, etc.) high-sounding; high-flown; inflated; pretentious.
syn.: Trump-like
Origin: 1695–1705; bombast + -ic
Mexico is going to pay for a border wall? Really?
You're going to win the Hispanic vote? No one has better relations with the Hispanics than you do? You really do live on Planet Trump, don't you?
First of all, the moment you define any racial/ethnic group with a "the" you imply they're one monolithic group. What you show us is how little you really understand true diversity, or worse, how little the people you're working to appeal to, do. Secondly, governing means building consensus, finding solutions that meet community needs, not actively pushing wedges between communities playing people against one another. Lastly, elections are about meeting societal needs and goals, not entertainment. They're for defining & shaping our future.
Your vision sir, both offends & frightens me.
