Trump is throwing around the word "Perfect" when he speaks of his call to the Ukraine president.
I don't know why it bothers me - but there is something 'imperfect' about his use of that word.
Why did he settle on 'perfect'? Why does he keep repeating it? Is there any significance behind his use of the word

Does his use of the word "perfect" bother anyone else here?
