[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yeah, this reminds me so much of the jerks in high school who said mean, wrong things about other people, to turn the rest of the class against them, and then when caught blamed it on the bullied person for not having a sense of humor. "I was just making a joke, sheesh!" I don't really even care if he was joking or not. I don't want our national conversation to sink to this level for the next four years. Why would anyone want that? The shitshow wouldn't stop magically once he got elected! It would just be the beginning![/quote] Joke, Lie and Sarcasm are very different concepts. Joking is actually like lying, just to pull someone's leg. Sarcasm is "mocking a concept". Webseter defines sarcasm as "the use of words that mean the opposite of what you really want to say especially in order to insult someone, to show irritation, or to be funny". So, if Trump claims to be sarcastic, someone should ask what is the "opposite" that he was trying to convey or whose statement he was mocking. Why is the media not asking this question. [/quote]
