Trump Accuses Biden of Assaulting American People with Long Words

[Rhiannon12866]

PALM BEACH (The Borowitz Report)—Donald J. Trump delivered a scathing review of Joe Biden’s first prime-time White House speech as President, accusing his successor of “assaulting the American people with long words.”

In a statement issued from his home at Mar-a-Lago, Trump ripped Biden for spewing a stream of words that were often three or four syllables.

Reeling off a list of the offensively long words in Biden’s speech, Trump singled out “hyperbole,” “administer,” and “effective.” “This should never be allowed to happen in this country,” he said.

“No one knows what these words mean, and no one will ever know,” Trump said.

10. Borowitz kept me sane over the last four years.

Humor in the face of tragedy is something I very much appreciate.

11. The only reason that I am sure this is Borowitz is because the former guy can't spell.

12. Yes, we'd have to presume TFG got hold of a transcript

... for some reason.

Why would the man who notoriously couldn't sit still for a two-page-including-figures Daily Brief seek out a speech transcript? So he could figure out what that "hi-purr-bully" is, I suppose.

13. Of course it's Borowitz

But like all good satire it contains a kernel of truth.
