Another critic replied, "It’s hard to keep track of what he’s trying to say sometimes. Sounds like he’s more focused on claiming victories than addressing the real issues people are facing."

A fourth person joked, "I like that you could just type out any jumble of random, disconnected words, and it would accidentally be a completely accurate transcription of something he’s actually said in the past 6 months."

This comes roughly one month after Trump bragged about using "highly sophisticated" words at a rally in Michigan.

"These people are just so destructive, so— I always look for good words ... and I'm highly educated. I like sophisticated words," he told the crowd. "There's only one word I get — that's stupid. Stupid people."

Trump was also mocked after claiming the media mistakes his intelligent comments for rambling.

"The fake news likes to say, 'Oh, he was rambling.' No, no, that's not rambling. That's genius when you can connect the dots," he said. "Every dot was connected and many stories were told in that little paragraph. They say, 'Oh no, he rambles.' What the h--- are all you people showing up for if I ramble? You don't want to show up for a rambler!"
