I had no idea he needed to read off plexiglas to sound like that. He seems such a natural babbler.

Leave him alone! Poor fella has been having recurring nightmares that he’s on trial in a criminal court, then waking up and realizing he’s in the trial right now.

Yeah, I kind of assumed it was all stream of consciousness jabbering, because I cannot possibly imagine any thought or structure being applied to the way he talks. So who writes his speeches, a cat stepping on a keyboard that then fills it in with autocorrect?

Seriously, how does anyone listen to this blithering idiot speak, and still support him? I’m eternally baffled by it.

Seriously? Because that’s the price they pay for license to slough off their “Christian principles” and “family values” — that they resent us for not taking seriously (or at least not seriously enough, in the “right way”) — and let their hate flags fly.

A cat would be more coherent, TBH. I don’t think anyone writes them, but just gives him a topic to start off and he ad-libs the rest, which is why it’s so much meandering random gibberish.

It’s half-remembered talking points and badly recalled anecdotes.
