No amount of dressing can save Donald Trump's debate word salad

Donald Trump said a lot during Monday night's presidential debate -- whether people understand what he said is a very different matter.

Throughout the course night, the candidate was accused of making a "word salad." All across Twitter, viewers accused Trump of "rambling," speaking in circles and even making up words.

Below is a small, diverse sample of Trump's word salads.

Use your best detective skills, and see if you can understand what Trump was trying to say:

On our trade deals:

"When we sell into Mexico, there's a tax. When they sell in -- automatic, 16 percent, approximately. When they sell into us, there's no tax."

On Hillary Clinton's website:

"And look at her website. You know what? It's no difference than this. She's telling us how to fight ISIS."

On losing jobs to other countries:

"[They're] leaving because taxes are too high and because some of them have lots of money outside of our country. And instead of bringing it back and putting the money to work, because they can't work out a deal to -- and everybody agrees it should be brought back."

On the Fed:

"And we have a Fed that's doing political things. This Janet Yellen of the Fed. The Fed is doing political -- by keeping the interest rates at this level. And believe me: The day Obama goes off, and he leaves, and goes out to the golf course for the rest of his life to play golf, when they raise interest rates, you're going to see some very bad things happen, because the Fed is not doing their job."

On releasing his taxes:

"Almost every lawyer says, you don't release your returns until the audit's complete. When the audit's complete, I'll do it. But I would go against them if she releases her emails.

HOLT: So it's negotiable?

TRUMP: It's not negotiable, no.

On reports that his business struggled:

"The report that said $650 -- which, by the way, a lot of friends of mine that know my business say, boy, that's really not a lot of money. It's not a lot of money relative to what I had. The buildings that were in question, they said in the same report, which was -- actually, it wasn't even a bad story, to be honest with you, but the buildings are worth $3.9 billion. And the $650 isn't even on that."

On stop and frisk:

HOLT: Stop-and-frisk was ruled unconstitutional in New York, because it largely singled out black and Hispanic young men.

TRUMP: No, you're wrong. It went before a judge, who was a very against-police judge.

On his company:

I am very under-leveraged. I have a great company. I have a tremendous income. And the reason I say that is not in a braggadocios way. It's because it's about time that this country had somebody running it that has an idea about money.

Sometimes Twitter says it best:
