stupid networks air it.. for free
just part of his game.
My understanding is that for the first 30 minutes, he stayed hard on his script, with a finger on the text to keep his place. Then he went completely off the rails.
It speaks well of networks who did not broadcast fascist propaganda.
I'm genuinely surprised he stayed on script for 30 minutes. That's about 25 minutes longer than he usually manages.
Well you have to remember, if he loses his election, he's going to prison.
I'm sure he's afraid of that, but I'd be amazed IG of actually happened.
I wholeheartedly agree with the last bit there, but smart money's on Trump never needing a full half an hour to prove he's a bloated sac of pus and half as cogent.
Having seen some of it, it was somehow both surprisingly boring and more unhinged than usual. Complete deranged Fox News grandpa hours.
I think Trump is really starting to look old, you know? When in front of a crowd he can feed off of you notice it less - but even then you can go back and compare to 2016. And stuff like this and the Elon call just has him looking old and slow.
30 minutes? I think that's more than plenty.
A billionaire complaining about rising food prices.
He's not a billionair.... oh, I see what you're saying. A billionaire in his mind!
