“I could have been relaxing at Mar-a-Lago or in the south of France ― which I would prefer to being in this country, frankly.”

    jesus, listening to the clip the actual phrasing is:

    “I could have been relaxing at Mar-a-Lago or in the south of France ― which I would prefer being in this country, frankly.”

    honestly, it sounds more like he's saying he would prefer being in this country [the US] rathern than be in the south of france. it absolutely sounds like a quick shout out to the USA in the middle of bragging about how he could have been living large instead of punishing himself with public service... which seems to be 90% of his messaging lately.

    even the author leaves wiggle room about its interpretation before linking a tweet misquoting him and then tons of quote tweets of that tweet. what a nothing burger of an article.
