his announcement of the President his speech sounded more slurred than usual.

I have come to the conclusion that some percentage of his skin coloring isn't just due to his tanning bed addiction, I think some of that coloring may be due to jaundice.

No drinking should be allowed during ANY 'working' hours. If he or anyone has an addiction then treat them and they need to be retired if they can't quit.

I would like to see him in person I am sure no form of photography does his skin tone justice.

because he gets embarrassed when he cries because of something that is touching or sentimental, or sad...

He's so damned human...

his next lie to himself. Really. He was constantly moving his mouth as if he has a tic. Irritating to watch.

Sometimes he looked like he was having gas problems. Other times he looked either bored out of his mind or pouting because it wasn't HIS guy up there delivering the SOTU. Half the time he looked like he was pouting.

And he had his ridiculous dark orange tan on, also. What a cartoon. Reminded me of endless glances I've had of little boys at school who make it VERY clear they don't want to wear that stupid suit and tie and they'd much rather be out playing or riding their bikes.

Spoiled brat.

Sore loser.

Piss-ant.

Or yeah, maybe a bit tipsy. Or hung over?
