Not that I’ll watch Trump’s speech today, but I’m curious how much it will be teleprompter boring low energy patriotism and how much whining, bragging, self-justification with a side of derogatory lying about Biden, Bolton and BLM. You can pack a lot of logorrhea into two hours.
You really have the Donster pegged. When it comes to history, he'd have trouble remembering what year the War of 1812 happened, but "they never had a Miss America from South Dakota" is something right up his alley.
In her quest for Fox fame and grifting fortune, South Dakota’s dimestore Sarah Palin, Governor Kristi Noem, raided the state’s economic development fund to pay for her fireworks party with Donald.
I did not know that Meredith Auld Brokaw was a former Miss South Dakota. She was the speaker at my HS graduation. Her father was the team Doctor for my HS sports teams until he died during my sophomore year. Brokaw's parents and my grandparents were friends from at least WW2 when both families were living in Igloo, SD supplying/doctoring the people mining uranium for the atomic bombs, they attended the 50th anniversary party my parents hosted for my grandparents
Five'll get ya ten Trump says, of the likenesses on Mt. Rushmore, "all of them were Republicans. A lot of people don't know that." Meanwhile, I'd love to hear Trump take a real word-association test. Since he doesn't read, all his associations would come from the sewer that is his life.
It seems likely that SD will have a super-spreader event along with a raging forest fire caused by the fireworks in parched conditions. Who needs metaphors when the shot just writes itself?
"[TRUMP snorts two long, fat lines, sits back, pinches and wipes his nose, gasps.]
KUSHNER: Okay. Now. America.
TRUMP: Great country, the greatest, the greatest country in all of history, ever, America. And that’s not just me saying it, plenty of people, all through history, everybody really, people of every race and creed —"

You know things are going downhill at a brisk velocity when even Jared gets a little sassy.
Real question: So a two-hour "speech" is not at all typical for a candidate appearance is it? Neither are Nuremberg rallies, yet here we are...

“ his version of dramatic, i.e. high, whispery voice with halting delivery“
Every time I hear him talk like this, I think of Martin Short’s Jiminy Glick character.
It’s true: no hookers. The last Deadwood brothels closed in 1980.

"Melania cocktails" is what makes it art; a lot in that word combo.

KUSHNER: Let’s focus, sir. Okay, new word: Patriotism.
TRUMP: Suckers.
KUSHNER: Patriotism.
TRUMP: Army. Soldiers. They, they shoot, kill the enemy.
KUSHNER: And why do they kill the enemy?
TRUMP: Feels good.
I'll bet Biden wishes he had that on tape.

I was just out in Rapid City. There was a line over half a mile long of cars leaving, going east/west. Mt. Rushmore is south

So you have a tape recorder in the Oval Office?
LOL...
"The songs of the wars are as old as the hills
They cling like the rust on the cold steel that kills
They tell of the boys who went down to the tracks
In a patriotic manner with the cold steel on their backs"
'The patriot's dream is as old as the sky
It lives in the lust of a cold callous lie
Let's drink to the men who got caught by the chill"
Of the patriotic fever and the cold steel that kills
