Repeated by Trump at the conference, because he's a 77 year old broken gramophone player, with the vinyl record needle stuck in a groove.

Trump told the mostly white crowd at the Black Conservative Federation gathering:

“I got indicted for nothing, for something that is nothing. And a lot of people said that’s why the Black people like me, because they have been hurt so badly and discriminated against, and they actually viewed me as I’m being discriminated against. It’s been pretty amazing but possibly, maybe, there’s something there.”

The former president added that Black Americans also “embraced” his mugshot and that he knows Black people because they built his buildings.

freitasm: Trump shoe photo

Misspelled "Y'all"

No one except elderly male porn stars have ever said anything "go as hard A.F."

Clever camera angle to make sure bottom of manufacturer's tag cut off before


  1. "made in Bangladesh, India, China, ..."

  2. "Example only, not for re-sale, actual product will be different"

  3. "As with any Trump product, highly corrosive. Should not contact unprotected bare skin;"

  4. "Do not look directly into sun for extended time. Close mouth when raining. Remember to breathe."

"Ya'll not about to tell me these don't go hard af."

 

The absence of a translation seems to indicate I'm not the only one who doesn't know what the guy said. 

 

"You all are not about to tell me that these (shoes) don't go hard as f- (something."

 

So does that mean, "All of you are not going to tell me these shoes don't go extremely hard." ?

 

Which seems to translate to, "All of you are about to tell me these shoes go very hard."

 

Curious. In other words, a considerable number of people have remarked to that person that these shoes are made from an unyielding rubber compound that makes them extremely uncomfortable to wear.

  1.  

    “Ya’ll”: This is a colloquial contraction of “you all,” commonly used in Southern American English. It refers to a group of people.

     

  2.  

    “Not about to tell me”: This part implies that the speaker is unwilling to accept any opposing opinions or arguments. They are asserting their own perspective.

     

  3.  

    “These don’t go hard af”:

     

    • “These”: Refers to something specific, although the context isn’t clear from this phrase alone.
    • “Go hard”: In slang, “go hard” means something is impressive, intense, or outstanding. It suggests that whatever “these” are, they are exceptionally good.
    • “af”: An abbreviation for “as f***,” emphasizing the intensity of the statement. It’s a way of saying “very” or “extremely.”

 

Putting it all together, the speaker is confidently asserting that whatever they’re referring to is undeniably impressive or outstanding. It’s a bold declaration of their opinion, and they expect others to agree with them.

 

Amazing what you can find out from Bing these days.

You need to imagine it being said in this manner, then it makes sense.

 

 

Possibly with a few "dang"s added.

This pretty much sums up US politics, you don't so much get elected to the presidency as buy your way into it.
