The 14 Most Inappropriate Moments From Trumps Speech at the Boy Scout Jamboree

The 14 Most Inappropriate Moments From Trump’s Speech at the Boy Scout Jamboree
By Margaret Hartmann July 25, 2017

During a rambling, 35-minute speech, he playfully threatened a member of his cabinet about getting the votes to repeal Obamacare, recounted his election win in great detail, and attacked President Obama.

A post on the Jamboree’s blog had warned troops to be “courteous” and refrain from chanting phrases like “lock her up” as they are “considered divisive by many members of our audience, and may cause unnecessary friction between individuals and units.” That did not prevent the audience from applauding Trump’s partisan attacks and even booing when he mentioned Hillary Clinton.


Sieg Heil!!!

where he was referring to the people there, not to get bored with yachting around Europe if they make an unthinkable amount of money as a real estate developer. But then he remembers who he is talking to, and that they'll never have that opportunity.

“He so badly wanted it, he got bored with this life of yachts and sailing and all of the things he did in the south of France and other places. You won’t get bored, right? You know, truthfully, you’re workers. You’ll get bored, too. Believe me. Of course, having a few good years like that isn’t so bad.”
