Guuurl ain't nobody coming to your fucking World Cup. And that was before your pedo president started a World War. Give it to South Africa, we did a great job in 2010 and we have the stadia and we're a tourists dream. And we don't arrest people at airports based on their skin colour

I look forward to advancing U.S. priorities that build a safer, stronger, and more prosperous America, grounded in American exceptionalism and shared opportunity.

Here’s a version that keeps the strong, assertive tone, but is grammatically clean in English:
As President, I do not need to return to Congress to obtain approval for tariffs. That authority was granted in multiple forms many years ago, and it has now been reaffirmed by a Supreme Court decision.

Stop trying to make like there's some kind of grand strategy or secret plan at work. It's not that. Truly. It's the simplest thing you can possibly imagine.

Don't think "four-dimensional chess"

Think "toddler + cheerios"

Are y’all seeing what’s happening in Georgia?! The State Election Board just confirmed that Elon Musk’s PAC sent out partially pre‑filled absentee ballot applications β€” an actual election violation. This feels like the tip of the iceberg.

What Supreme Court ruling against Trump tariffs means for your money The Supreme Court ruled against a centerpiece of President Donald Trump's tariff agenda on Friday. Consumers could save money as a result, economists said.

Trump is taking ordinary Americans for a ride.
