Trump really sucks at reading speeches

[Proud liberal 80]

When he reads from paper or a TelePrompTer. Awkward pauses and delays, doesn't seem like he knows the material, watered down with no big words so that he won't mispronounce. Just terrible

he sucks at everything

2. no he doesn't, he so presidential.......

3. I wonder if they have to write them out, phonetically

His vocabulary is so limited, if he likely has trouble comprehending what he's reading. If he just concentrates on making sounds, it might be less confusing.

4. Trump is really great at being a train wreck!!

5. It often sems as if...

...he is reading the speeches for the first time. Very stilted and stumbling delivery.

6. And he insists on inserting his own emphases

For example, during the speech in Riyadh, he read something referring to the Fertile Crescent, and he, dumbass that he is, had to look up and say, "so true--so very, very fertile."

Every time he does that, he weakens the power of the words somebody else wrote for him.

7. Gawd only knows...

...what the hell he meant by that. "I'm hearing more and more about the Fertile Crescent, and they're doing a really good job."
