1:06 lol nooo… possibly no way.
We have extremely trusted and unbiased media outlets everywhere that would never dare slander anyone or mislead the public into believing that a major figurehead may have mixed words during an important event. 😮
“[…] They’re bringing drugs, they’re bringing crime, their rapists, and some, I assume, are good people” — which matches a very specific, informal speech pattern that has been used consistently over the years.
Versus:
“[…] They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people” — which fits far more cleanly into a particular narrative used to libel someone.
This clearly was not the intended usage nor the actual sound/shape of the speech. There was no hard stop in delivery, and “their” was said—albeit poorly—as part of a continuing list of examples. But such is life.

Fun fact: The inventor of English was English Englishson and he only did it to solve the problem that nobody knew what to speak.

Being dyslexic, I spell how things sound. I always say, there's the English spelling then there's the right spelling.👍🏻

The thing about the English language is its mixed with languages from around the world. This is why American English is different from England's English.

Do one on the definitions and uses for the word "run".

Fun fact: the "k" in "knight" was not originally silent. Neither was the "k" in "knee" or "knife." In old Anglo-Saxon, it's perfectly normal to start a word with k-n.
