Call me an optimist, but if someone who cant pronounce Yosemite can become President of the United States, I feel like your kids can miss a few months of in-class instruction and still become whatever they want to be.

(5,477 posts)Instead of identifying animal crackers, would be to pronounce a list of words.
You know, complex, multi syllable words like "LOSER", and "TRAITOR", and "TREASON" and then MUCH MORE complicated 3 syllable words like "TREASONOUS" and IMBECILE".
And then throw in some place names like "Louisiana" and "Mississippi". (yeah, I know that last one will be HARD!!)

(443 posts)To accept this nitwits failure and incompetence is to basically lower your standards and accept mediocrity. This is the kiss of death. Once you start down the road of lowering your standards you will fail personally, in terms of your career and as a culture and a nation.

(1,648 posts)Donnie Dumbass mangles words without any indication that he even knows what he is saying, along with his gibberish pathetic explanations, followed up with the words,
'This is why the United States is in danger from him failing to address multiple threats that are getting worse.'

There shall be abundance and tranquility, but should you stray from my path, I will send you hosts of evil destroyers known as Republicans to wreak death and destruction. I admonish ye, fuck up not, O my Yosemites!' "
