9. He Talks too Long

I think it has more to due with him talking too long. I think they like listening to him, but even someone you like listening to can become boring if they talk for too long. I have heard that he speaks for more than an hour.

I think I might stop listening to President Obama if he spoke for longer than an hour. However, it must be hard to listen to someone like Trump for more than an hour when the whole hour has been filled with nonsense. At least with President Obama you get a coherent speech for an hour.

because he tends to stick to whatever he's obsessed about at the moment. Right now, he's yammering about the office that was stolen from him because he bought it in 2016 and it should have been his forever, you know, like his golf courses, getting it taken away by a bunch of rabble was cheating. How dare Democrats be allowed to vote! Unfair! Disgusting!

Even diehard fanboys and fangirls can take only so much repetitious bleating. He's become a bore. Even the razzle dazzle at the beginning doesn't disguise that fact.

8. Happens At Lots of His Rallies

I think this happens at a large number of his rallies. It is possible that people walk out on him because he tried to talk for two hours.

And so his rallies all look and sound the same.
I think they were hoping he would declare for 2024, and when he didn't, it was just the same old same old. No reason to hear all that again for the umpteenth time.
Early exit beats the rush.

He goes through the same litany of lies and petty grievances every time. Same shit, different day. Even his cult is getting tired of him.

Tfg worshipers don't want to hear the same old shit, they only want to tell their maga cohorts that they were there. Repugs still trying to be the cool kids because they never were able to accomplish it in school.

I can’t stand to listen to the man for even one minute. A whole hour or more would qualify as torture.
