6. Thanks.
I swear though, a few politicians' names are darn near unpronounceable.

10. Excuse me!
He does most certainly not drone!

I was privileged enough to hear him twice this last weekend, and he is a very dynamic speaker!

He does talk about impeachment, but he also talks about what we need to do to get our country back!
