Trump Deals With The Media: "I’ll Use The Word ’Anchor Baby’."

John Derbyshire

This is delicious, and explains much about Donald Trump’s popularity.

ABC reporter and CultMarx enforcer Tom Llamas tries to rectify Trump’s vocabulary.

Llamas: "Are you aware that the term "anchor baby," that’s an offensive term. People find that hurtful … "
What people? Freshmen residency assistants at liberal-arts colleges? Luis GutiƩrrez?
Trump: "You mean it’s not politically correct and yet everybody uses it? Say, y'know what … "

Llamas: "Look it up in the dictionary. It’s offensive."

I actually did look it up at Dictionary.com. It’s not there. I went to my trusty Webster’s Third, 1993 edition: nope, nothing between "anchor ax" and "anchor ball". The OED? Strike three.

This guy’s a professional journalist?

Trump: "Give me a different term, give me a different term. What else would you like to say?"

Llamas: "'The American-born child of an undocumented immigrant'."

Trade in four syllables for seventeen?
Trump: "You want me to use that? OK. No, I'll use the word 'anchor baby'."

Llamas: "Why … I’m saying … "

Trump’s had enough of the nonsense. He elbows aside this metrosexual twerp and proceeds on his way.
Trump: "Excuse me."

Llamas: "Why d'you have to use that phrase?"

Trump: "I'll use the word 'anchor baby'."

You have to see both speakers, both sides of the exchange for full effect: the CultMarx enforcer, and the Donald. Each is an 18-second clip; spare the time.
