... Donald Trump vented his frustrations Saturday in a swaggering, unscripted campaign speech in Moon Township, Pennsylvania: a 73-minute whirlwind of taunts, insults, and vulgarity and, occasionally, words of praise for the man he was there to support ...
... for the most part, the speech was a vehicle for Trump to talk about Trump ...
... He raged against Mexican president Enrique Peña Nieto for refusing to pay for a border wall ... He threatened .. a trade war with the European Union over his tariffs on steel and aluminum ... He reiterated that drug dealers ought to get the death penalty, criticized sanctuary cities for not cooperating with the Justice Department, and called for an end to chain migration ...
According to five Republicans close to the White House, Trump is preparing to execute a clean reset of his senior staff in the coming weeks, as part of a larger effort to wrest control from aides he believes have been holding him back. Saturdays rally was, perhaps, the first look at this new, unconstrained Trump.

(118,280 posts)It's quite another thing to sit over an hour, trying to follow a confused parade of half-sentences, delivered in no particular order with no transitions and no unifying theme, beyond being mostly about himself

(964 posts)We were assailed with a glimpse of thoughts that run in this by-product of a human. I'm sure he doesn't do more than rage about not getting his due while watching tv all day. At least unscripted, we can know what he thinks about (only if you can believe that this life form is capable of any thought process).

He has never stopped attacking, name-calling, mudslinging and troll tweeting.
