"It's not a mispronunciation. American and British speakers, for example, pronounce "clientele" in distinct ways. Neither pronunciation is wrong."
maybe but pronouncing "nuclear" as "nucular" is wrong, sorry.

Iran leadership doesn’t understand the words “nice” or “compassion,” they never have. Sadly, the thing they do understand is Strength and Power, and the USA is by far the most powerful Military Force in the world, with 1.5 Trillion Dollars invested over the last two years alone..— Donald J.

People in the old Confederate states say that shit all the time. They will never let go of it. The correct rejoinder for that kind of person is to accuse them of not "bearing true allegiance to the United States of America", because that turns the conversation into whether or not they are patriotic Americans and there's no way they won't swear up and down that they're ten times more patriotic than anyone else alive.

here we go again, look the United States has long had a record of invading hostile countries who engage in documented human rights abuses and atrocities so you know they had to put the smackdown on the CSA just like they did Germany, i don't see why this is so hard to understand for guys like that.

I had a brilliant college physics professor who pronounced nuclear "nucular." There's a good chance he was just trolling, but either way I admired him for it.

These people were told by their grade school textbooks that Confederates were a part of a long American patriotic tradition of standing up for their own against an oppressive government, so this argument would sound absurd to them.

According to the Times, Pelosi fielded concerns from dozens of House Democrats on Sunday after calling for the passage of the $4.5 billion in emergency humanitarian aid. Pelosi claimed the bill protects families and “does not fund the administration’s failed mass detention policy.” However, more than 30 members of the Progressive Caucus and more than 15 members of the Hispanic Caucus told her that the bill didn’t hold migrant shelters to higher standards and didn’t stop the funds from being used for immigration enforcement.
“We all want to address the problems at the border, but we don’t know that there are enough sticks in this bill to make sure that the Trump administration actually spends the money the way they’re supposed to,” Washington Rep. Pramila Jayapal, a co-chair of the CPC, told the Times. “He’s creating these crises and then trying to point a finger at Democrats to give him more money, which he then uses for his own purposes.”

i would think that it would be a bad idea to get into an argument with a confederate loving racist about how patriotic they are, but that's because i think life is too short to spend arguing about patriotism with some terrible person who is probably concealing a handgun

Donald Trump lost a bid to halt a lawsuit brought by 201 Congressional Democrats who want a Washington federal court to require that the president seek approval from lawmakers before he accepts any financial benefits from foreign governments.In a pair of orders issued Tuesday, U.S. District Judge Emmet Sullivan denied Trump’s request to halt the lawsuit so he could immediately appeal Sullivan’s earlier refusals to dismiss the case. The decision means the 2017 lawsuit led by U.S. Senator Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut can proceed.
