Social Media Reacts To Trump's Word Salad About Affordable Child Care

Vice President Kamala Harris has made some cooking videos over the years, but her presidential campaign had to acknowledge Thursday that no one puts together a word salad quite like Donald Trump.

During an appearance before the Economic Club of New York, the former president and 2024 Republican nominee was asked whether he’ll make affordable child care a priority if he wins reelection in November.

Trump’s response can only be described as ― well, just look at the transcript below. It’s long, but it’s the only way to appreciate the bizarreness of the whole thing, especially because he never really answered the question.

Perfectly clear, right? Naturally, the Harris campaign posted a clip of the exchange to let Trump’s words speak for themselves.

Not surprisingly, many people on X, formerly Twitter, couldn’t make heads or tails of Trump’s comments.

And some critics called out The New York Times for making it sound like Trump’s rambling was actually a halfway coherent statement.
