"Let me explain a situation that occurred about 20 years ago in this area. I was honored as Man of the Year by a local group. When the media heard about this, they claimed it never happened. At first, I couldn’t recall which organization had given me the award, but I was certain it had occurred.
During the award ceremony, I gave a speech addressing the decline of the local car industry. I questioned why the community was allowing their automotive business to be taken away. At the time, I didn’t know all the details, but I was aware that the local car industry was suffering.
The media continued to deny that this event ever took place. However, someone eventually came forward, saying they remembered it. We then found evidence, including the award itself, proving that the event did indeed happen. The ceremony was real, and I did give that speech about the car industry, which was considered quite controversial at the time."
“So pretty much, as we’ve been saying — and what I want to do is, I want to be able to — look your business. Years ago in this area, I was honored as the Man of the Year. Was maybe 20 years ago, and the fake news heard about it. They said, ‘It never happened. It never happened.’ And I didn’t know who it was. It was a group that honored me as Man of the Year. The fakers back there — see the fake news — but they said, they said, Oh. And they looked at it, you know, they said it never happened. But I said, ‘I swear to you, it happened. It did happen.’
“I was Man of the Year, and I came and I made a speech and said, ‘Why do you allow them to take your car business away? Why do you allow it to happen? They’re taking your business away.’ And I didn’t know too much about — all I know is they were taking your car industry away from you. They said it never happened, and lo and behold, somebody said, ‘I remember the event,’ and then we found out, and we had everything. We got the awards. We had everything. It did happen, but I gave a speech, which at the time was pretty controversial …”
* rationalize, that’d silly. But why spend the mental energy trying to interpret this particular word salad once a quick glance confirms it’s gibberish?
Faster to read the English version to conclude more quickly it’s the usual lies. When the lies get bigger there’s some cause for alarm b/c people get hurt (see Haitian communities). Big Orange’s gibberish is newsworthy but no need to pain ourselves staying abreast.

Edit: didn’t mention the not-so-subtle diss of pretending no English speaker would understand the candidate
