which might explain why he breaks away from the prompter to ad lib.


More than a few articles about that have been popping up.

He misread Texas to Ohio and said Toledo

In other words his reading is totally disconnected from his brain. He's in a very bad place this morning - he knows he instigated this violence against Mexicans and brown people.
He also knows that his white supremacist base aren''t going to be too happy with their daddy calling them out.

Not about him. Doesn’t care.

It was an early morning for him too. Usually only gets to work at 11. He must’ve been in the makeup chair by 9 at the latest.

WTF? God didn't protect them. That is why they are dead.
