Donald Trump Is Bad For The Spanish
(I’m in an online Spanish class the day after US Presidential Election day, working with two other students to create a recorded phone call; this entails an answering machine and a message being left. We are unsure what to say until I just randomly spit out the first thing I think of.)
Me: “Why not just make it Donald Trump?”
Student #1: “YEEEES! And the caller can be Hillary Clinton!”
Me: “And it can just entirely be Hillary insulting Donald!”
Student #1 & #2: “Let’s do it.”
(We then write out the call in Spanish. In English it is essentially:)
Donald Trump: “Hello, you have reached the phone of Donald Trump. Leave a message after the tone, and remember MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!” *beep*
Hillary Clinton: “Hello, RONALD DUMP! You are ugly and stupid and your hair is very ugly! I’m giving the phone to Bernie.”
Bernie Sanders: “Hello, Ronald Dump! It’s Bernie! You are bad for America! Very bad, bad, baaad! Goodbye, Trump. Goodbye, America. Goodbye!”
(We got a A+ on that assignment, and we got to read it in class.)
