1. Trump joins Dubya as presidents I simply couldn't/can't listen to.

Life is too short to be made so miserable.

[Thirties Child]

13. Reagan, Dubya, Trump - couldn't/can't listen to any of them.

[BumRushDaShow]

2. LOL

For some dumb reason, I have turned it on - the King of Saudi is speaking and will be introducing the Drumpster fire soon.

[samnsara]

3. im watching it too.. i can just imagine what donnie is thinking....

... 'I have to pee'.....'did that guy just say my name?'...'wonder whats for dinner tonight?'...'I am gonna sneeze..wonder if I can make it look like a frown?'...'my butt itches'....' I m gonna make trump tower look better than this dump'...

[BumRushDaShow]

4. Bwah!

He's on!

OMG he's struggling and squinting at the teleprompter.

[DesertRat]

16. And he sounds so winded...

[BumRushDaShow]

20. He's getting to the limit of his ability

to stand there and speak without going off the teleprompter script.

Edit to add that he is really huffing and puffing now.

[DesertRat]

22. Muslimsplaining is hard work.

[BumRushDaShow]

25. I expect every single one there

subscribes to the belief - "Don't go by what he says, go by what he does".

[PatSeg]

6. Oh my!

Yes, that is probably exactly what he's thinking, especially the "my butt itches"!

[lostnfound]

9. Earpiece not giving the English translation of the Saudi guy...it's a cooing voice saying 'Donny...

You're so great and your hands are so big..

[yallerdawg]

5. He only has the one speech.

Even when someone puts new material on the teleprompter, he ad libs in the old speech.

Beyond incompetent, incomprehensible and incoherent - he is unwatchable.

He grates on the brain.

[spiderpig]

7. His breathing is even louder than usual.

He's trying to sound solemn, but he sounds sedated.

[spinbaby]

8. Probably is sedated

Keeps him in line.

[cilla4progress]

10. This was the big Islam

unity speech?

[avebury]

11. "Saudi Arabia should be a place that refugees flock to."

Does he have no clue how the Arab world treats the non-Muslim foreigners that they import to work for them?

[oasis]

12. 1 million jobs created so far?????

Even if true, why the hell would those in the assembly be interested in U.S. domestic job numbers?They must think this guy is the one of the biggest puffed up idiots in history.

[Yonnie3]

14. I'm listening, know your enemy.

I'm waiting for him to go off script. Not happening so far. It sounds like he's been rehearsing. He is not stumbling on the big words as he often does when reading. I wonder who wrote this, it sure wasn't him.

Some of the expressions of his audience are amusing. Some seem rather bored.

He just said something about people using god towards their goals. Pot, is that kettle black?

[reflection]

17. He's doing well

Which is the bare minimum required of any other president. Since the bar is so low for Cheetolini, I'm sure we'll get a bunch of talking heads swooning "ohhh, he's soooo presidential" and such.

[Yonnie3]

24. That pisses me off every time I hear media analysis.

He seems to be graded as if he is in preschool by many in the media.

[superpatriotman]

15. He won't say radical Islam

He hasn't said it. He's rope a doped around it, but he won't do or say exactly llwhat they criticized Obama harshly for not doing.

I wonder why?

[demmiblue]

18. He sounds like he is about to pass out. n/t

[nolabear]

19. Just got here. Is he really giving them directions on what to do?

And are they really that bored?

[DesertRat]

23. He's lecturing and patronizing.

I'm surprised he didn't say "I alone can fix it."

[nolabear]

28. He was pretty damn tame on "radical Islamic terrorism" too.

Steven Miller knows how to bullshit.

[LBM20]

21. Lock him up!

[DesertRat]

26. This pic says it all

Link to tweet

[smirkymonkey]

29. He looks like he wants to bolt for the door.

I can't imagine how miserable it must be to host that cheeto-colored gasbag and listen to him drone on about himself all day.

[Motley13]

27. Wonder how the deplorables like him sucking up to MUSLIMS!!!!!?????

[smirkymonkey]

30. Anybody have a transcript of the "speech"?

I didn't get a chance to see it.

[BumRushDaShow]

32. Link here

from CSPAN (video and transcript) -

(his speech was about 35 minutes)

[smirkymonkey]

33. Thank you!

God, he sounds completely doped up. Thought I saw a few eye-rolls in the audience as well.

[BumRushDaShow]

34. Definitely sedated

and towards the end, he was really huffing and puffing.

[Doreen]

31. Don't Muslims have to pray five times a day?

the reason I ask is that if they do then they all have an excuse to just get up and leave to pray. That way they can pray for this torture to end.
