The language you dream in/think in is the one you use

when you compose a speech..THEN you (or the campaign) hire(s) a reputable translator who puts it into English (or whatever language).

Anyone who "speaks multiple languages" knows how difficult it is to arrive at just the right turn of phrase or to use colloquialisms...

Shame on the campaign and shame on her too (a little) for not taking it more seriously.

Many people wanted to know about her thoughts..not just some vapid words strung together..

A total strike out

and I'll bet more than one paragraph was plagiarized, although that was the most glaring one. It says much about his campaign, his reluctance to hire adequate staff, and the contempt the party insiders have for him that help was not offered.

I agree that a stumbling but heartfelt speech would have been much more effective.

However, Kaiser Drumpf wanted a showbiz convention that would dazzle the masses, clumsily redone Woodstock logo and all.
