I hate even replying to you, but the English teacher inside compels me to suggest that you learn what “code switching” is. We all do it, at least those of us who are skilled at verbal communication.

Like HRC and the salsa in the purse, yeah i get it. a losing proposition.

Mitt Romney grocery shopping, yeah fake stuff

HRC riding the subway. He he he

VP Harris talking like Foghorn Leghorn.

Folks all see through this “code switching” that’s why President Trump has such a loyal following. He’s authentic.

I think that deserves an “A+” in today’s English class! 😎

Indeed, Trump, and I've seen many people like this, is outspoken and honest about other people's faults, but defensive and blatantly dishonest about his own. That gets him the reputation for "telling it like it is" when almost everything he says is self-serving.

His dealings with evangelicals are transparently phony. Someone needs to revive Ted Kennedy's line against Mitt Romney: "he's not pro-choice. He's not anti-choice. He's multiple choice."

If Trump is an authentic anything, he's an authentic con man, but that's not really a thing.

Tell me you don’t know what code switching is without telling me that you don’t know what it is.

Authentic? That is hilarious. He may be the least authentic person on the planet.
