In Trumpese, "many people" means "I".

Trumpese is a bit like Kremlinese.
Translation example:
"We don't need China" = "We need China"
"We don't need Ukraine's help" = "We need Ukraine's help"
And so on.

Karoline Leavitt calling out that New York Times reporter during today's press conference?
Classic case of Trumpese, a dialect used by government spokespeople, who provide absurdly aggressive (and often comically untrue) responses.

It’s a tell that Trump mentioned “two weeks” as a time frame for this — that is often Trumpese for “never”
And yet damn near every story that ran/aired about this treated it as an afterthought that…he can’t do this. Amazeballs.

Trump’s $5 million ‘gold card’ visa might never happen
The president and his aides have exaggerated the likelihood that the program can be implemented and have made no effort to introduce legislation that would be needed.
