As a public service, here's a "MAGA to American English" translator.

(inspired by DUer Nance Gregg's recent OP in which she explained that, in MAGAspeak, "Soros-backed Democrat" means "this Democrat is backed by a JEW!"

"Our thoughts and prayers are with you" means "So, your ( fill in blank ) was just killed in another mass shooting. Tough shit!"

"Make America Great Again" means "Women should not vote or work outside the home if married, Jim Crow was a great system and queers should be deported or 'fixed' ".

"Second Amendment rights" means "the right to carry any firearm you can lift, fully loaded, ANYWHERE you want and to use it against anyone who makes you 'feel oogy' ".

"A jury of your peers" means "twelve white men who voted for Trump".

"The Republican Party platform" means "whatever Mr. Trump wants today".

"Fair unrigged election" means--- Oh, hell! No need to translate that, amiright?
