Trump writing his own speech? Who does he think he's fooling?

Does anyone believe that a man who can't even put together a coherent sentence can possibly write an inaugural address? I know supporters of his who don't even believe this. It's time for everyone to realize that every single thing that comes out of his mouth, or that of his surrogates, is likely a lie. It should be treated as such until proven otherwise.

But then, I thought Dubya was reading those books he was always lugging around whenever he skedaddled for yet another vacation to his "ranch."

That's because Putin's command-voice Russian doesn't translate well into American conversational English.
