He will either be somnambulant, or he will go off script and be petty and self serving.
Then the media will say he was Presidential.

Compare them to the rallies.
Official stuff seems to bore him and he just can't get off on it, (although, in my theory, there is a reason for that persona being played in those situations) I don't think the Adderall even helps a bit.
At a Devotional Rally he's smug, perky, cocky, irascible, etc. It's like Xmas Day for a kid. His speech is clear and there are less gaffes. He comes off as confident and in control.
