Former President Donald Trump seemed to admit what normal people have long observed: Right-wing anti-āwokeā obsessives canāt actually define what it means. āI donāt like the term āwokeā because I hear āwoke woke wokeāāitās just a term they use, half the people canāt even define it, they donāt know what it is,ā the twice-impeached ex-president said Thursday during remarks at the Westside Conservative Club in Urbandale, Iowa. Trump continued on to deliver a fact-free riff on trans athletesāa common grievance for conservatives in 2023ābefore calling the concept āwokeā and then catching himself: āI guess they define that as āwoke,ā but thatās all woke. We have to bring common sense back to the country.ā Trumpās odd dismissal of the right-wing buzzword could easily be interpreted as a subtle dig at his rival Ron DeSantis, who is notoriously obsessed with all things āwoke.ā

In what seemed like a subtle DeSantis dig, Trump said he doesnāt like the word because āhalf the peopleā canāt say what it means.
