Trump’s ‘dumb’ story makes no sense
CNN • • nation
Key Points:
- President Donald Trump has repeatedly claimed that most people do not know the word "dumb" ends with the letter "B," using this assertion to justify his nickname "Dumocrat" for Democrats.
- Trump has made this claim in multiple public appearances, including White House events, interviews, and the White House Correspondents' Dinner.
- The claim is widely viewed as nonsensical since "dumb" is a common word learned early in school, and there is no evidence to support that most people are unaware of its correct spelling.
- Critics suggest that Trump's insistence on this narrative is more about maintaining an image of brilliance and justifying his chosen insult rather than a genuine misunderstanding of the word's spelling.
- The article concludes that the entire issue is trivial and reflects poorly on the president's focus and priorities.
