Rotting teeth but voted Trump.
http://www.washingtonpost.com/sf/national/2017/05/13/the-painful-truth-about-teeth/?hpid=hp_hp-top-table-main_rigged-teeth-1109am%3Ahomepage%2Fstory&utm_term=.050b8ff9469cSALISBURY, Md. — Two hours before sunrise, Dee Matello joined the line outside the Wicomico Civic Center, where hundreds of people in hoodies, heavy coats and wool blankets braced against a bitter wind.
Inside, reclining dental chairs were arrayed in neat rows across the arena’s vast floor. Days later, the venue would host Disney on Ice. On this Friday morning, dentists arriving from five states were getting ready to fix the teeth of the first 1,000 people in line.
Matello was No. 503. The small-business owner who supports President Trump had a cracked molar, no dental insurance and a nagging soreness that had forced her to chew on the right side of her mouth for years.
“It’s always bothering me,” she said. And although her toothache wasn’t why she voted for Trump, it was a constant reminder of one reason she did: the feeling that she had been abandoned, left struggling to meet basic needs in a country full of fantastically rich people...
But nearly four months into Trump's presidency, Matello sees Trump backing a Republican health care plan that appears to leave low-income people and the elderly worse off.
“I am hearing about a number of people who will lose their coverage under the new plan,” Matello said. “Is Trump the wolf in grandma's clothes? My husband and I are are now saying to each other: ‘Did we really vote for him?’ ”

You can be smart and not a particularly mean-spirited person and still be an awful judge of character. That's the thing that flabbergasted me about Trump getting as many votes as he did. The man is an blatant con artist and a moral disaster zone. Why were so many fooled? I've literally heard a colleague with doctorate in a technical field talk about how Trump is obviously one of the great "business and financial geniuses of the world."

Most of the differences are listed there. You noted one of them: "hone" where English uses "home."
Other grammatical rules of Republicanese that help in deciphering it:
Never use "your" and "you're" correctly twice in a row. Random correct context is permitted.
The same goes for "lose" and "loose."
The same goes for "two," "to," and "too."
The same goes for "there," "they're" and "their."
Frequently use an apostrophe to form a plural (e.g."The Clinton's are making headline's"
, whereas English does not.
Always write "to all intensive purposes" instead of "to all intents and purposes."
There are MANY other examples of the differences between English and Republicanese. Just go (if you can stand it) to almost any right wing web site. Once you can decipher Republicanese, you can almost understand half of what they are ranting about.
But I haven't yet memorized the Republicanese-English dictionary in its entirety.
And, by the way, there is another one: In Republicanese, always use an apostrophe ("it's" where English does not, and vice-versa.
(one of my favorite shows)
Time to vote for the Democrats, Dee Matello. The GOP lied to you.
