His followers were rendered speechless last night.
Hope he keeps it up!

(42,770 posts)me yesterday that whoever is programming his speeches into the teleprompter is not doing it correctly. They are splitting his sentences up in unnatural places and it is making his speeches sound extremely strange.

(1,306 posts)he follows the same vapid formula for every speech, as follows:
A hyperbolic, false accusation:
we know _____________ is bad; it's bad ; you know it's bad
(and it's all Obama's fault, implied.)
Followed by flattery to followers, grandiosity and vague promises:
But I'm gonna make ______ good.
We're gonna make ______ good.
We're gonna make ______ great.
We're gonna make ______ greater than ever before.
We lose/fail at everything.
But I'm gonna win.
We're gonna start winning.
We're gonna win more than we ever have before. And so it goes...
A carnival barker. An empty-headed cheerleader at a pep rally.
His speeches are insulting to anyone with half a brain, but they are designed to
appeal to the masses who are easily manipulated by this sort of sales pitch which
links the words "we" with flattery and grandiose adjectives. He leads his drones to
believe it is they who will achieve some sort of greatness, IF they follow him.
He said that he beat all the other "boring" republican candidates in the primaries.
That is such a mischaracterization. He beat the "serious" candidates. He is a joke.
Questions:
1) What exactly is so bad right now, Donny ?
2) What has not improved since Obama took office from his incompetent predecessor ?
3) What do you PLAN TO DO, specifically, aside from building a wall and banning Muslims ?
