Here's the part where the media insists that they know what he meant better than he does. "You don't get to decide what you intended with your words, that's our job!"
I've come to the conclusion that whenever the left says that something we say is a "dog whistle", they are quite literally forming one of their own. Training their own hounds to slaver at the smallest mention of words and phrases.
"Nationalism!" Leftists obediently lose their entire minds
Everything Trump says is a secret decoder-ring letter to the KKK, but luckily leftists have broken the code because leftists are racists who can figure out hidden racist messages that Trump supporters can't understand.
Oh yeah, I've seen it a lot. I can't even comprehend the degree of hubris which convinces people that they're better qualified to interpret someone else's words than the person who actually said them. It's really a mind-boggling level of narcissism. It's even more worrisome that social media publishers are taking consequential action against people based on someone else's analysis of their own language. It doesn't matter what you meant, if somebody else finds it offensive then their opinion is given a higher status - so much so that you can actually be punished for motives you never really had - and that is a truly disturbing collapse of free speech.
Damn right, that was my first thought, flash back to ever conversation with an indoctrinated TDS sufferer.
They get to decide what words mean, and not you, or anyone else. And if they don't like what they think you meant, the conversation is pretty much pointless.
That's what they've been doing since he took office. Remember how long it took to implement his travel ban? The judge's reasoning was literally "Oh, but he REALLY means a Muslim ban." Not figuratively. Literally.

Projection is all they do.
Leftist shitknobs are like reverse Q-tards.

Literally the knee jerk response.
"So you're saying that all looters are black?"
CNN: ....angry NPC face...
Honestly that's every leftist. They spin your words and say "what we think you meant by your words offended us".

"It's really a mind-boggling level of narcissism." < yes it is
Very profound and exactly right! And it's not only the collapse of free speech, but the collapse of our culture and country.

Spot on!!!
Mind-explodingly that says more about how left-tits think than anything else.
