"That Was Actually My Sick Idea" by Trump [closed]
'THAT WAS ACTUALLY MY SICK IDEA': PRESIDENT TRUMP ON SENDING IMMIGRANTS TO SANCTUARY CITIES
“Last month alone, 100,000 illegal immigrants arrived at our borders, placing a massive strain on communities and schools and hospitals and public resources, like nobody has ever seen before,” Trump said to the crowd. “Now, we’re sending many of them through sanctuary cities, thank you very much.” “I’m proud to tell you that was actually my sick idea,” the president said.
As I know, when "sick" is used as a slang, it can mean "cool or awesome". So, did Trump mean that was his cool idea or he really meant that was a sick idea?
sick OED
colloquial. Of humour, a joke, etc.: macabre, providing amusement by reference to something that is thoroughly unpleasant.
and/or from Green's Dictionary of Slang:
(orig. US) morbid, depraved, e.g. a sick sense of humour. 1961.
sick and wrong (adj.) (US campus) a general pej., absolutely impossible, unthinkable, totally disgusting; also used
ironically. 1989
My sense is that of the ironic, a timely comeuppance. “I’m proud to tell you that was actually my sick idea” becomes 'you want a sanctuary city ... you get a sanctuary city.'
