It's like his audience is a fourth grade class.

(24,734 posts)as I always do when His Orangeness speaks - assuming I can get to the volume controls quickly enough.
But I do see that it is going on a long time.
Geez, he couldn't possibly be trying to distract from the hearings today and esp. Comey tomorrow, could he?

(61,695 posts)I'll listen when he gives his resignation speech, and unhinged, goes after Everyone.

(17,006 posts)It reminded me of an infomercial. Lots of words but no content.

(60,010 posts)It turns out he CAN read, and uses teleprompters sometimes, but when he comes to the end of the line in teh prompter sentence, he pauses, as if there is a period there, which produces really weird syntax.
When he is not using them, he blathers and is incoherent.

(12,448 posts)He's really, really bad at reading them. He's stiff, with no affect, and he comes across as confused. He can read, but I think he has terrible reading comprehension.

(60,010 posts)He does not wear glasses, maybe an ego thing?
but I have to assume he had Lasik eye surgery then.
which, as you point out, does not make up for the poor comprehension.
