    It highlights the age gap between her and Trump by using her father’s age as a reference point. People are joking about how it sounds like they’re saying the age gap between her father and Trump has changed over time as if they age at different rates.

      Folks know that the author was trying to point out the age gap. But it was really poorly written, and they’re criticizing that writing.

        I dunno, the person I replied to originally seems to be losing their mind over this even though it makes sense even if a bit clunky and if everyone knows what they’re trying to say then is it really that bad? Conveying meaning is the entire point of language and it seems to have done the job.
