YouTube video:
"Six US Presidents Who Have SWORE."*
Listen I'm a schoolteacher, I do not use swear words and they jump out at me more than for most people but it's *odd* that given what else is going on an F-bomb got so much attention.
*I will explain the possibly obscure reference here. For a time there was a genre of videos ... aimed clearly at children about which "minecraft youTubers" had said a *swear word* ... oh no. gasp. shocking.

If anyone does want a look, just before he starts the clause in which he swears, he leans forward, to make sure he's heard over the helicopter. It was very clearly deliberate, and I don't think it's coincidence that it was earlier that morning he'd heard that the strikes were *not* as effective as he thought.
He started using this on the campaign trail a couple of years ago, dropping in a swear word whenever the enthusiasm was flagging at his rallies. His base LOVES it when he does it, which is why he does it so often in front of them. But using the media's prudishness against them...I didn't expect something as cunning as that from him.
Stopped clocks. What's weird is you can't tell what time it is that he's stopped at. I'm beginning to suspect it's 10:37am, June 25, 1855...

I think you are correct, but I have no intention of watching him do anything again unless I'm forced to so I will just take your word for it.

He did it absolutely intentionally. Watch his body language when he says it. He did it to distract, knowing the media would run with it like impressionable children and focus on the naughty word instead of the bonkers shit he's been pulling.
