Every question is a hit job

Donald J. Trump

Original

The FoxNews Poll, always the worst, is so insulting with the questions they ask. Every question is a hit job, and every answer is "BULLSHIT!" This has been going on for years. President DONALD J. TRUMP

The Lyonnais version

Lyonnais (France)

Satire

Le sondage de Fox News, toujours le pire, me pose des questions insultantes. Chaque question est un coup monté, et chaque réponse, c’est « des bêtises ! ». Ça dure depuis des années.

À Lyon, on connaît ce théâtre : c’est Guignol. Le gendarme pose les questions, et Guignol répond à coups de bâton. Les enfants applaudissent depuis deux siècles. Moi, je fais pareil avec Fox News, et franchement, les gones, j’attends toujours les applaudissements.

English version

The Fox News poll, always the worst, asks me insulting questions. Every question is a set-up, and every answer is “twaddle!”. It’s been going on for years.

In Lyon we know this show: it’s Guignol. The policeman asks the questions, and Guignol answers with a stick. Children have been clapping for two centuries. I do the same with Fox News, and frankly, guys, I’m still waiting for the applause.

Lost in translation
  • Guignol, the Lyon glove puppet created by Laurent Mourguet at the beginning of the nineteenth century, traditionally answers the gendarme with a stick. “Gones” is Lyon slang for kids, or fellow Lyonnais.
