the fact that the White House Communications Director has communication skills on par with a snotty middle schooler is really quite funny.
It’s a strategic thing too. A significant portion of voters can’t read above a fifth or sixth grade level. Politicians sound like middle schoolers because that is what appeals to their voting base.
I remember someone in a copaganda show once saying something along the lines of “whenever someone writes a manifesto, it’s either insane ramblings, or pseudo-intellectual ramblings full of big words that they picked out of a thesaurus and misused.” And sure enough, every single time I’ve seen a manifesto, it neatly fits into one of those two categories.
