Big Beautiful Flop Making presidential statements presidential again.

Send them directly to me

Donald J. Trump

Original

The threats being made by the Democrat Party against innocent Republican Donors and Party Members are absolutely unprecedented, and totally illegal. Please report them to the Department of Justice, IMMEDIATELY! If you would like, send them directly to me, your President. These SLEAZEBAGS should go to jail for what they are doing. The Senate must act, and stop being pushed around to the point of the Republican Party losing Elections, and worse! Likewise, the DOJ and House of Representatives. Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP

The presidential version

The American President

Satire

I am concerned by reports that Republican donors and party members have received threatening messages. Intimidation has no place in our democracy, whoever it targets.

Anyone who receives a threat should report it to local law enforcement or to the FBI. The Department of Justice will assess each case independently, on the facts and the law. And I ask Congress to make sure that citizens of every party can support the candidates of their choice without fear.

Version française

Je suis préoccupé par les informations selon lesquelles des donateurs et des membres du Parti républicain auraient reçu des messages menaçants. L’intimidation n’a pas sa place dans notre démocratie, quelle qu’en soit la cible.

Toute personne qui reçoit une menace doit la signaler à la police ou au FBI. Le ministère de la Justice examinera chaque cas en toute indépendance, au regard des faits et du droit. Et je demande au Congrès de veiller à ce que les citoyens de tous les partis puissent soutenir les candidats de leur choix sans crainte.

Around the world

Switzerland & France

Vaudois (Switzerland)

Satire

Bon. Paraît que des gens d’en face embêtent nos donateurs. Moi je dis rien, mais c’est pas joli-joli.

Alors vous faites quoi ? Vous écrivez à la justice. Ou bien, si ça vous arrange, vous m’écrivez à moi, directement. Pas de souci, je lis tout. Enfin, je fais lire. Et merci de votre attention, hein.

English version

Right. Apparently some people on the other side are bothering our donors. I’m not saying anything, but it’s not very nice.

So what do you do? You write to the justice department. Or, if it’s easier, you write to me, directly. No problem, I read everything. Well, I have it read. And thank you for your attention, eh.

Valaisan (Switzerland)

Satire

Adieu ! Il paraît que des gens d’en bas menacent nos amis. Chez nous, une affaire comme ça, on la règle au café du village, avec le président de commune et un verre de fendant.

Lui, il veut qu’on lui envoie les lettres à lui. Bon. Mais à la montagne, on sait une chose : celui qui crie le plus fort au sommet, c’est rarement celui qui a fait le chemin.

English version

Hello! Apparently some lowlanders are threatening our friends. Up here, we’d settle something like that at the village café, with the mayor and a glass of white wine.

He wants the letters sent to him. Fine. But in the mountains we know one thing: whoever shouts loudest at the summit is rarely the one who did the climbing.

Genevois (Switzerland)

Satire

À Genève, quand quelqu’un se sent menacé, il porte plainte auprès du Ministère public, et l’affaire suit son cours. Lentement, comme il se doit.

Lui propose qu’on lui envoie les lettres directement, à lui. C’est original. Nous, on a un Palais de justice et une Poste : deux bâtiments différents. On peut lui envoyer les deux adresses.

English version

In Geneva, when someone feels threatened, they file a complaint with the public prosecutor, and the case takes its course. Slowly, as it should.

He suggests sending the letters directly to him. That’s original. We have a courthouse and a post office: two different buildings. We can send him both addresses.

Parisien (France)

Satire

Des menaces contre nos donateurs ? Envoyez-les au ministère de la Justice. Ou à moi. Ou au ministère, avec moi en copie. Bref, à moi.

Et traiter les gens de « sales types » avant tout procès, c’est un peu rapide, non ? Merci de votre attention à ce sujet. Je dis toujours ça à la fin : c’est mon côté bien élevé.

English version

Threats against our donors? Send them to the Justice Department. Or to me. Or to the Department, copying me. So, to me, basically.

And calling people “sleazebags” before any trial is a bit hasty, no? Thank you for your attention to this matter. I always say that at the end: it’s my well-mannered side.

Sud de la France

Satire

Oh, c’est une honte, une honte comme on n’en a jamais vu depuis l’invention de l’aïoli ! On menace nos amis ! Envoyez tout à la justice, et tout de suite !

Ou envoyez-le-moi, à moi, votre Président : je m’en occupe personnellement, comme un pastis, sans attendre et sans eau. Ces fadas, en prison ! Bon, après le procès, hein. S’il y en a un.

English version

Oh, it’s a disgrace, a disgrace like nobody’s seen since the invention of garlic mayonnaise! They’re threatening our friends! Send it all to the justice department, right now!

Or send it to me, your President: I’ll deal with it personally, like a pastis, straight away and without water. Those lunatics, to jail! Well, after the trial, mind. If there is one.

Ch’ti (France)

Satire

Eh biloute, paraît qu’y a des gens qui reçoivent des lettres pas gentilles. Ichi, une lettre pas gentille, on l’amène au commissariat. Pas à la mairie, et encore moins au président.

Et on dit pas « en prison » avant d’avoir écouté l’aut’ côté. Ch’est comme ça qu’on fait dans l’Nord : on s’engueule, puis on boit un coup ensemble.

English version

Hey pal, apparently some people are getting nasty letters. Up here, you take a nasty letter to the police station. Not to the town hall, and certainly not to the president.

And you don’t shout “to jail” before hearing the other side. That’s how we do it in the North: we have a row, then we have a drink together.

United States

New York (United States)

Satire

Somebody’s threatening donors? Okay. In New York, you get a threatening letter, you call a lawyer, you call the cops, and maybe you call your cousin. You don’t mail it to the President. He’s busy.

Also, “sleazebags”? Pal, around here that’s what we call the guy who takes up two seats on the subway. Let the courts sort it out.

In plain English

New York’s advice: if you are threatened, go to a lawyer and the police, not to the President.

And “sleazebag” barely counts as an insult in New York. Let the courts decide who did what.

Deep South (United States)

Satire

Well, if somebody’s sending ugly letters, that’s just bad manners, and we don’t hold with bad manners. Take it to the sheriff, honey.

But calling folks sleazebags and hollering “jail” before anybody’s had their day in court? My mama would’ve said that’s no way to talk. President or not.

In plain English

The South dislikes threats and bad manners, from either side: report threats to the police.

But calling people names and demanding prison before any trial is not how a well-raised person talks, even a president.

United Kingdom

Yorkshire (United Kingdom)

Satire

Threatening letters, is it? Then take them to the police, love. That’s what they’re for. Sending them to the President is a long way to post something, and dear on stamps.

As for “sleazebags” and “jail”, we’d want to hear both sides first. Round here, you don’t call a man a crook till you’ve seen his accounts.

In plain English

Yorkshire’s advice: take threats to the police, not to the President (it would cost a fortune in postage anyway).

And before calling anyone a criminal, look at the evidence.

The Diplomat

The American President is just above. Here, the other statesmen.

The British Diplomat

Satire

His Majesty’s Government has every confidence that, where threats against citizens are reported, the appropriate authorities will look into them. It is, if we may say so, a matter best left to the police and the courts rather than to the personal post of a Head of State.

Strong language has its place in politics. We find it is usually in the second draft, shortly before it is removed.

What he really means

If there are threats, the police should deal with them, not the President’s inbox.

And please stop calling people sleazebags.

The French Diplomat

Satire

France condemns, without reservation, any intimidation aimed at citizens because of their political commitments, wherever it comes from. In a democracy, such matters belong to independent justice, and to it alone.

We would add, with all the friendship that unites our two republics, that justice is best served when it is not asked to act “IMMEDIATELY” by the head of state himself.

Version française

La France condamne sans réserve toute intimidation visant des citoyens en raison de leur engagement politique, d’où qu’elle vienne. En démocratie, ces questions relèvent de la justice indépendante, et d’elle seule.

Nous ajouterons, avec toute l’amitié qui unit nos deux républiques, que la justice est mieux servie lorsqu’on ne lui demande pas d’agir « IMMÉDIATEMENT » à l’initiative du chef de l’État lui-même.

The Swiss President

Satire

The Federal Council takes seriously any threat against citizens who take part in political life. In Switzerland, such cases are reported to the police and handled by independent prosecutors, whatever the party of those involved.

We are attached to the separation of powers, and we have found that it works best when each power keeps its own letterbox.

Version française

Le Conseil fédéral prend au sérieux toute menace visant des citoyens engagés dans la vie politique. En Suisse, de tels cas sont signalés à la police et traités par des procureurs indépendants, quel que soit le parti des personnes concernées.

Nous sommes attachés à la séparation des pouvoirs, et nous avons constaté qu’elle fonctionne au mieux lorsque chaque pouvoir garde sa propre boîte aux lettres.
