Former President Donald Trump may refer to his convoluted speeches as "genius," but Vice President Kamala Harris has a different term for them: "nonsense."
In addition to his reasoning, Trump has offered another justification for his linguistic digressions, which he terms "the weave" and an indication of "genius."
"I do a thing called The Weave, and there are those that are fair that say ‘this guy is so genius!’ And then others would say, ‘he rambled,’ I don’t ramble if I start a story," Trump, who is 78, addressed a group of supporters in a recent interview, as per OK! Magazine.
He boasts about his "extraordinary memory" and how it lets him switch gears mid-sentence or speech to address a different subject.
Harris criticized the former president for employing the "same old tired playbook" and imprecise arguments during his campaign during an Atlanta rally over the weekend.
"Over and over again, he has no plan for how he would address the needs of the American people," according to her. "He is only focused on himself, and now he’s ducking debates and canceling interviews because of exhaustion!"
"When he does answer a question or speak at a rally, have you noticed he tends to go off script and ramble?" she asked the audience. "And generally for the life of him cannot finish a thought. And he has called it 'The Weave,' but I think we here will call it nonsense!"
"So, folks, for these reasons and more, it is time to turn the page. It’s time to turn the page," she persisted. "America is ready to chart a new way forward. We are ready! We are ready for a new and optimistic generation of leadership! All of you!"
Trump's assertion that his manner of speaking at campaign events was "very complex" and indicative of intelligence was followed by this development, as per The New York Times.
"I do it a lot. I do it with Raisin' Cane, that story. I do it with the story on the catapults on the aircraft carriers. I do it with a lot of different stories," Trump clarified during a Michigan town hall in September.
"When I mentioned Doctor Hannibal Lecter, I'm using that as an example of people that are coming in from Silence of the Lambs. I use it. They say, 'It's terrible.'"
"But the fake news likes to say, 'Oh, he was rambling.' No, no, that's not rambling. That's genius when you can connect the dots," he remarked. "If you couldn't connect the dots, you got a problem, but every dot was connected and many stories were told in that little paragraph."
Meanwhile, BBC reported that presence of Elon Musk is proving crucial to the Trump campaign and to the controversial strategies being utilized to convince people who are not yet committed to the candidate.
Musk's Future Coalition PAC, a nonprofit organization funded by Musk, has been financing a digital advertising campaign aimed at Jewish and Arab voters. At the beginning of this month, The Wall Street Journal published an article stating that Musk is a contributor to the charitable organization Building America's Future.
This organization is the only one mentioned as a donor to Future Coalition PAC. According to reports, it provided the organization with three million dollars.
According to the advertisements, which can be found on Facebook and YouTube, Kamala Harris may be considered both pro-Israel and anti-Israel.
As stated by Google's Ads Transparency Center, an external organization, the organization has spent $841,000 on 43 advertisements that contain contradictory messages. These advertisements have alternated between describing Harris as "anti-Semitic" and "pandering to Palestine" and telling her and her husband Doug Emhoff, who is Jewish, as the "pro-Israel power couple" in the United States.
In accordance with the states' demographics, the advertisements have been strategically displayed in various states. The state of Michigan, which is seen as a swing state and has the most significant number of Arab Americans in the US, was the location where the most money was spent on advertisements.
