this clip was played and discussed. Very disturbing and makes a lot of pieces click into place. The lack of computer use; he dictates his tweets to an assistant and the assistant posts. Inability to offer evidence of any preparation or study for assuming the position he is occupying. All the long pauses and excuses; he doesn't wear glasses, but whenever he has to read, he's forgotten his glasses, etc. This guy is functionally illiterate, God help us. The maniacs around him can have him sign ANYTHING, and he wouldn't know the difference.

glasses were always available to -- the President of the United States. In conclusion, he cannot read well enough and is trying to hide the fact. He hasn't 'forgotten his glasses.'

I wish a White House employee would just hand him some reading glasses the next time that idiot says he forgot his glasses. He/she will immediately be fired, but maybe the jig would be up, in front of the cameras.

he looks like he's forming his signature with a crayon, like a 3rd grader.

He cant write or read, it is clear now.

That wouldnt be a necessarily bad thing if it wasnt that he is also a liar, a thief, and has no conscience AT ALL.
