Trump national security strategy speech

What a good time to spend with an affirming video. You'll like this.  Of all places, Al Jazeera provides a good transcript if you prefer words over video.

Skip to 5:00 for the speech. He uses phrases and words not heard from politicians for awhile. I notice other sites point out he said the taboo phrase "jihadist" terror threat. He brags about his accomplishments, and they are significant, and he outlines his perspective on what it means to be American. He rejects the tenets of progressivism and post modernism, he makes his ideology clear. He's very basic.

He talks too slowly for me. I changed the speed to 1.5 with the transcript open in another window and translated the whole thing. It's fun. His vocabulary is so down to earth, so universal, that it makes the task very easy. He avoids technical jargon.

I noticed by doing this, Trump outlines his end, government's end of the things we need to do, to allow the American public to simply be Americans and blossom as Americans. He's very nicely getting government out of the way. Where Bush II constantly said, "We're gonna hafta do this, and we're gonna hafta do that." It was his repeated phrase. I signed it enough to become annoyed with it. I never read any pundit talking about that but it bugged me. Bush II put all the responsibility on us to perform his ideas, while he enlarged government such that it interferes with that expected performance.

His enemies with nothing of value to say will say instead that he drinks water like a child with his itty-bitty little boy hands. 

So lets beat them to the punch. Because we notice that ourselves. And you know what? I really hate to admit this. I noticed in myself lately some shaking just as I lift a fork to my mouth and that forces me to worry and to think of this other guy I know who does that same thing really badly. It's some dreadful disease. He doesn't, but he makes me think that he's going to fling food all over the place and it makes you want to assist feeding him but he's acting like that shaking thing isn't even happening. He just deals with it. Still, I wonder, why two hands on a bottle or a glass? 

Answer me. Why? 

Sometimes you young healthy whippersnappers who walk up and down steps without even holding the railing act so smugly able-bodied. It's triggering. You need to check your privileges.

This is a joke I do all the time. Never fails to crack people up. They explode in disabling paroxysm. It's preceded with dialogue about something redneck, something base, in a put-on accent but one that sounds natural and sincere, like I am the person, not making fun of a person, say, a mechanic talking about pulling that cherry-picker over here and yanking that engine block, then taking a sip through a straw. It's funnier pulled on people who don't know you.
