[El Supremo]

https://www.yahoo.com/news/latest-trump-tweets-criticism-obama-144827674--election.html?ref=gs

Let's guess what he'll say.

Mine: "I'll be an amazing, tremendous, and incredible president!"

[radical noodle]

1. Like Melania wrote hers? n/t

[Maru Kitteh]

53. Exactly what I thought. Writing a speech would require too much of him

Thinking, attention, work. A thesaurus.

[radical noodle]

66. LMAO! Yes!

I'd like him to do one of those eye-popping off-the-cuff speeches like he often did at his rallies. Let him rave and ramble. Recorded for the ages.

[brush]

64. Exactly! I don't believe for a minute that he will write it.

[radical noodle]

67. It won't take long to know if he wrote it

or someone else did. Pity I don't intend to watch.

[portlander23]

2. We'll do it live

[JHan]

40. LMAO. *ded*

[KamaAina]

3. Well, at least it won't be very long.

140 characters, tops.

[livetohike]

21. Good one!

[Demonaut]

59. you beat me to it....lol

[dhol82]

4. Doubt he will write anything

He will give an extemporaneous speech about how wonderful he is that will last for an hour and a half.

[tblue37]

29. Autocrats always like to speak at length to a captive audience.

They will deliver addresses that go on for hours.

[dhol82]

31. And their supporters stand there in rapt attention.

Nuremberg here we come!

[mythology]

45. Perhaps he'll end up like William Henry Harrison

[tblue37]

47. If he has a dream about asking Abraham Lincoln how to de-stress from the pressures of the office,

Lincoln will suggest that he take in a play.

(This comes from an old joke that went around during W's misadministration.)

[dixiegrrrrl]

63. I am sure it will go over bigly. n/t

[madokie]

5. I say he'll tweet it in

[lpbk2713]

6. The Trump family was outed for plagiarism a few months ago.

Link: http://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show/plagiarism-controversy-jolts-republican-convention

It would not surprise me in the least to see them try it again.

[snort]

13. Four score and seven years ago...

[lpbk2713]

18. "Ask not what your country can do for you.

Ask how many different ways can Trump screw me?"

[True Dough]

71. "Ask what you can do for the Trump presidency."

"No, seriously. I'm in way over my head here, GULP!"

If only...

[mahatmakanejeeves]

24. That's just what I was thinking. NT

[cwydro]

7. Sure he will.

Riigghht.

[TexasProgresive]

8. "BIGLY, HUGE, I AM AMAZING. EVERYONE ELSE IS STUPID!"

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

9. "It's gonna be BIGLY... as in HUUUGE!!" Ugghh, wake me when it's over... I can't bear to watch!!

[LisaM]

10. Oh, goody.

I feel badly for Alec Baldwin, who will have to watch it - I have no intention of doing so.

[rug]

11. Four times in seven days I scored.

No one was conceived and no man can equal me.

[elehhhhna]

16. Oh my god that is one of the funniest things I've read on DU and a long long long time

[livetohike]

23. ROFL!!

[SammyWinstonJack]

51. Oh Dog, that's hilarious.

[Ilsa]

69. Bwaaaaaaahahaha! Hubby LOLed also.

Keep up the good work!

[TheCowsCameHome]

12. That should be an oratory masterpiece.

"I, I, I, Me, Me, Me".

[elehhhhna]

14. Thank you Jesus! This means it'll only be 140 characters.

[TeamPooka]

15. 1st Inaugural address with hashtags and will only be 140 characters long. nt

[TeamPooka]

17. "Four score and three wives ago...." nt

[rbrnmw]

19. right

he will probably steal President Obama's from 09

[mahatmakanejeeves]

20. "But first a few words about a new hotel that just opened up

a few blocks right across the street from the White House."

Full disclosure: I visit the lobby of the Willard Hotel every Christmas. It is beautifully done up. I'll post some pictures in the DU Lounge. This is a class act, not like ... you know what.

[UTUSN]

22. Bwa-ha-haw!1 DUzy

[mahatmakanejeeves]

25. At least this way the networks won't have to carry it live.

They can tape the speech, and if any of it is interesting, they can show those few seconds later that night on the network "news."

[tblue37]

26. Sad! nt

[Vinca]

27. So it will be brief . . . considering his vocabulary.

[SeattleVet]

28. tRump *says* a lot of things.

Most of them are false, so I'm pretty confident that this really means that he won't be writing anything.

It'll be pretty epic when we find out that it was really ghost written by Failin' Palin.

[Rex]

30. "My first act will be to build a monument to me, a bigly one I promise it will be solid gold

and Canada will pay for it."

[lunasun]

32. President Obama please check your old inaugural speeches

John Miller, Barron or Merideth McGiver might steal them

[welivetotreadonkings]

33. Perhaps he'll call into Fox and Friends during the ceremony to talk about how tremendous it is.

[Laffy Kat]

34. This otta be good. nt

[Island Blue]

35. And don't tell me, let me guess ...

The crowd will chant "Lock her up, lock her up." I'm sure he'll just rehash his campaign speeches and add in something about Carrier, yada, yada, yada.

[RBInMaine]

36. "Oh say can you see, by the light of my bleached hair, what so proudly you should all hail..."

[Cha]

37. NO he won't

[rzemanfl]

38. Does he have enough crayolas? n/t

[marybourg]

55. This made me laugh. Then cry. nt,

[onecaliberal]

39. 140 characters or less

[smirkymonkey]

41. How can he. He's fucking illeterate.

God, I still cannot believe this idiot is going to be the president.

[Generator]

42. I hope he does write it all himself

The more he looks like a loon the more he can be brought down. But yeah-I am in shock every single morning when I wake up and remember that this happened. Sometimes you forget in sleep-it's so nice!

[rockfordfile]

43. ahahahaha sure you will lol!

[rurallib]

44. Study a couple of Hitler tapes

have someone translate them, claim it is his own work.

[Generic Other]

46. Will he at least take off the stupid hat?

I hope his hair flaps in the wind like old glory!

[spanone]

48. yea, sure he will. he lies everytime he opens his mouth

[mountain grammy]

49. The big ugly jerk

I hope he falls off the stage..

[SammyWinstonJack]

50. ROFL!

[etherealtruth]

52. Just keep adding to our national embarrassment buffoon boy

[Ms. Toad]

54. Don't forget - "for all Americans, and that is so important to me"

I was so glad when NPR stopped playing that snippet from his acceptance speech.

[royable]

56. Guess he couldn't find any A-list speech writers to do it for him.

Or B-list, or C-list...

[benld74]

57. Coming next over 5000 tweets

[guillaumeb]

58. I think Melania Trump should write it.

She did so well with her previous attempts.

[GreatCaesarsGhost]

60. I can see my hotel from here.

[muntrv]

61. I thought he will tweet it.

[mcar]

62. Oh. My. God.

Soaring narrative, it will not be.

[handmade34]

65. no worries

I will not be listening


here is a good thing to do that evening...

http://www.unnaugural.org/


or
"Something Rotten" is in Boston that evening

[kacekwl]

68. He should be imededitly impeached after his

swearing in for lying under oath to uphold the constitution and protect us from threats by enemies forgien and domestic.

[tinrobot]

70. He can't think beyond 140 Characters, so at least it will be short.
