A One-Speech Pony

[NanceGreggs]

That's what Trump has been reduced to, a one-speech pony whose only topic of interest is how he didn't really lose the election that he lost.

Even the MAGAts are losing interest. Thousands of them left his latest rally halfway through his scheduled two-hour rant - saying they wanted to 'beat the traffic' as they headed home.

Listening to Trump nowadays is like listening to your best friend talk about how she was left at the altar on her wedding day. At first, you understand her pain, her anguish, her humiliation. But when that's still all she can talk about a year later, you start to understand why her fiance decided not to show up.

1. He was never very original...

from clips I've heard, every one of his speeches is the same old shit. trump...SSDD.

[MyOwnPeace]

2. Just like his 4-year "administration"............

NOTHING of substance, no plans, no ideas, no nothing - just bitching about 'affronts' to his "greatness."

[rurallib]

3. to me it's like listening to an aging high school athlete

who never made it any higher, talk about how great he was in high school and how great he COULD have been but those college and pro coaches were too stupid to see how great he was.

What a pathetic creature, yet he still draws a crowd of even more pathetic losers.

4. An accurate description.

5. "A one-speech pony" is perfect.

It's like a local garage band that has a following in dive bars but all of their original material sounds the same. They can't break out of their continuous slump and eventually fade into obscurity, still playing the same old same old.

16. Well,...

...at least the southern end of a north-bound one-speech pony.

[Meadowoak]

18. I would have said, one speech horses ass.

[Jim__]

6. Remember Miss Havisham from Dickens' Great Expectations?

She was jilted at the altar and wore her wedding dress everyday for the rest of her life.

7. Perfect comparison, I'll remember this.

[tavernier]

8. Perfect!

9. Actually... when I read the title, Trump wasn't the first politician who popped into my mind.

Just the title alone leaves it wide open, and I thought it may have been about some other politician.

10. I wonder if all the emails from Trump Inc. conclude with a plea for cash and a donate button

that brings you to a page that reads:

Your contribution will benefit Donald Trump.

[Meadowoak]

19. The word pony throws it off, should have been horses ass

[George II]

23. That works in all cases too.

[lapucelle]

25. Show horse works too...

.... workhorse not so much.

[NurseJackie]

26. Yep... the same old dog-and-pony show continues...

... in many venues. It appears that people still buy tickets to see these quaint, obsolete and outdated performances. Or maybe they just feel sorry for them. But, as the old saying goes "a fool and his money are soon parted".

11. Spot on, as always,

[Mr. Ected]

12. What Trump is able to do with his devotees is nothing short of a miracle

Jesus took five loaves of bread, two fish and fed 5000 people.

Trump takes 5000 people, sees the biggest crowd in the history of crowds, and bases his claim of a lost election on the enormity of his reach.

Miracles, I tell you.

13. About the parking issues

Cult had to stay for hours AFTER his rant rally before being allowed to leave the parking areas. One Karen threatened legal action for losing her FREEDUMBS. Anyone wanna bet the scammer is taking a percentage of parking fees for his slush fund? Maybe, charging by the hour to park?

[Oldtimeralso]

14. The would of, could of, should of cult leader.

N/T

[malaise]

15. Pretty Much!

would make a great chant or shirt!

21. 'A collective chorus of yawns': Trump's 'tired' Arizona speech was a tremendous flop

TFG is unable to come up with new material and the existing material is weak

Link to tweet

Put more succinctly, Lewis stated Trump's "schtick" has grown old and was greeted with "a collective chorus of yawns."

Pointing out there was a time when the former president's every utterance "spawned breathless coverage," Lewis made a compelling case that a click-obsessed news media found little Trump said on Saturday night was worth reporting.

And that is bad news for the publicity-obsessed ex-president.

22. BORING
