This translator cant believe she has to repeat the stupid things coming out of Trumps mouth.
I wonder if she translated it word for word, because he kept repeating himself as usual. 🙄 Hes a complete embarrassment.

(1,105 posts)I've got to tell you that video was cute but unbearably dangerous for those kids.
Do any of you ever wonder how the people who have cared for lions, tigers, and bears for years suddenly are mauled. often to death, by the animals they have formed such a close bond with? Predators, even domesticated ones, have instinctive reactions to movements, sounds, and body posture. That dog, at no fault of its own, could have responded to the movements of those toddlers and done tremendous harm.
My wife, who worked at a major trauma center in the Pacific Northwest, couldn't watch all of the video clip. Over her 37 year career she had to repair damage to little kids scalps, skulls, necks and upper torsos when a cute event like what was filmed went horribly wrong.
I know my typing this is unlikely to change any of your minds about these "lovable" interactions but I've got to put it out there anyway. If you love your kids and your dogs and/or cats be very wary about allowing these sorts of interactions. Even though someone was there filming, things can happen so quickly the damage can be done before anyone can intercede to stop it.

This video is adorable, but you're right that nobody should try to duplicate it. You just never know.

(25 posts)The hardest part is having to translate the normal Italian response back into Gibberish. I'm reminded of Barbara Billingsley's performance in Airplane! when she translated English to Jive.

(9,888 posts)I think that as a translator she's heard plenty of nonsense. She's really trying hard to figure how to make sense out of what he's saying in his broken English

(16,254 posts)She tried to take notes, but finally had to stop. She looked at the Italian president like she didn't know what to do with all the lies he was spewing. It was incredible.
My jaw was on the floor, most of the time.

Then when asked by a Reporter about the explosions in Syria, answer? That is fake news, that is an explosion in Kentucky!
I have been searching frantically to find that news on my local station!
