Original Note:
Cheney points to Trump’s use of “implicature” (implying what is said while not explicitly stating it) as plausible deniability https://www.cambridge.org/core/books/abs/language-in-the-trump-era/plausible-deniability/C6E9FDA943235621C4E66D0B1C212E09 https://www.colorado.edu/linguistics/2020/08/21/trumps-use-conversational-implicature-and-plausible-deniability https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=G0h_CZXlFcI The full clip’s “context” https://x.com/ericabbenante/status/1852211976555893202?s=46 is in fact Trump’s “cancellation & suspension implicature” to maintain deniability for glorifying political violence. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=duCBB2q04ts&t=74
