Trump Rambles About "Oringes" and Windmills: A Closer Look In a recent segment from Late Night with Seth Meyers, the host delved into an absurd speech delivered by President Trump to a gathering of Republicans, highlighting some of the more bizarre statements and claims he made. The focus of the segment was on Trump's peculiar mispronunciation of "origins," repeatedly referring to it as "oranges," which set the tone for a comedic yet critical analysis of his rhetoric.

Key Highlights from the Segment:​

• Confusion Over Speech: The speech featured Trump claiming that the noise from windmills could cause cancer, a assertion that left many puzzled. This was accompanied by a humorous imitation of windmill sounds, illustrating the absurdity of his comments.
• Trump's Preoccupation with the Mueller Report: Seth Meyers discussed how Trump seemed fixated on the Mueller investigation, insisting on probing the "oranges" of the inquiry rather than addressing pressing national matters. Meyers cleverly pointed out the irony in how the official White House transcript had to adapt to Trump's verbal spontaneity, reflecting a growing pattern of linguistic errors that have become a hallmark of his speeches.
• Political Context: Meyers contrasted Trump's amusing yet perplexing remarks with the more substantive political discourse from the Democratic candidates, particularly regarding critical topics like healthcare and climate change. This juxtaposition underscored a divide in priorities, especially in light of pressing issues that voters care about, such as economic stability and environmental policy.
• Meyers’ Take on Voter Priorities: Throughout the segment, Meyers emphasized that while Trump is distracted by what he termed "oranges," most voters are more concerned about everyday challenges and the immediate impacts of policy, such as health and environmental concerns. Meyers' comedic critique not only entertained but also provoked thought about the disconnect between political rhetoric and the actual concerns of the electorate. It's a reminder of the ongoing narrative in U.S. politics where the spectacle often overshadows substantive policy discussions. This segment from Late Night serves as a reminder for all political enthusiasts—whether Democratic or Republican—to pay attention to candidates' words but more importantly, to their actions and policies as we approach an election cycle filled with critical issues that impact everyone.
