It is not credible that you did not note that he is regular user of hyperbole.
Hyperbole is bragging. I'm the best, I will do better than Obama, I will make America Great Again
Saying the economy is going to grow at 4% if you are elected, that Mexico will pay for the wall, that jobs will return from China is not hyperbole. Those are specific, measurable promises that you will be measured against. If he had no intention of meeting those claims then that is a lie....not hyperbole
Standard lib tactic.
LIe about what a word means, then attack your enemy based on your made up bullshit.
THis is the actual definition of hyperbole.
hy·per·bo·le
hīˈpərbəlē/
noun
- exaggerated statements or claims not meant to be taken literally.
synonyms: exaggeration, overstatement, magnification, embroidery, embellishment, excess, overkill, rhetoric;
Thus, as we see, your claim that hyperbole has to be personal bragging is revealed to be a lie.
MY point, that his overblown promises, were hyperbole, is shown to be keeping in line with the REAL ACTUAL DEFINITION OF THE WORD.
Also, as you lied about the word, and I did not, my credibility is bolstered while your is undercut, by your own actions.
My point stands.
Trump's comments on 2.6% and 4% was a hyperbolic statement of intent to be more aggressive in economic policy, aiming for higher rates of growth.
This is the standard to hold him to, if he makes a good faith effort to do that, and what results he gets.
DO you think that judging him on those standards will work for you?
Because you are acting like you don't believe that.
