Presidential Rhetoric

I've been fascinated lately by what gets self-censored (letters in profane words being replaced with asterisks, for instance) and what doesn't, and what kind of messages and feelings are being conveyed with those choices, and how that ties in to the broader fabric. The one from Trump today is such a weird one.

It's ok to say "BULLSHIT", but not ok to say 'jock strap?'

People are weird.

It's okay to have kids in concentration camps but it's rude to cuss.
