Trump's Speeches Appear Rambling and Incoherent

[louis c]

I watched both of Trump's speeches, last night in Cincinnati and the night before in Raleigh. Both in their entirety. I know, it's like a form of self-torture, but I love information, and what a way to get it.

I have written speeches for lower level office seekers, organized political events for candidates, some as high as Congress (successful candidate, Katherine Clark of Massachusetts) and a Lt. Governor candidate.

I speak in public often, as part of my job. I've been doing this for 40 years.

I have never heard a more incoherent, rambling, nonsensical display from a candidate for any office in may life as the two speeches I watched Trump deliver over the past two nights.

To listen to Micah and Joe on MSNBC praise this nonsense is beyond me. What's up with that?

But I digress.

In looking for an answer to this confusing, intellectually baron recital from an unhinged man, I remember reading this article last week.

Give it a read and see if you think it fits.

1. They aren't speeches. They are free association.

[kentuck]

2. Because they are...

A babbling, incoherent idiot...

3. "intellectually barren" - love it. You have a way with words. No wonder you are a good speech

writer.

I don't know about the drugs. I always thought it was a long-standing narcissistic personality disorder plus dementia now that he is old.

Is Gawker a reliable source???

4. ...isn't it "barren"?

Sorry. I'm a pedant.

[patricia92243]

5. You are right - I'll fix it right now. I love pedants :)

6. It was wrong in the OP too.

So you're completely off the hook.

7. I think "intellectually baron" is a pun

on one of tRump's aliases. The choice of words was intentional IMO.

11. I agree. n/t

8. Good description of deranged don

I have been trying to key in on exactly what is wrong with him, I had heard about the diet meds, but I think it is even worse than that.

He repeats everything he spews at least 3 times, mosquitoes yesterday. Alzheimer maybe?
At the very least psychotic. Mixed with NPD (narcissistic personality disorder) should scare the very fecal matter from everyone, that this raving maniac could be president.
Reminds me of Dr. Strangelove

9. Appear?

10. I, too, am a writer (poetry, novel)

and I listened to a number of non-teleprompter speeches in their entirety. I attributed the repetitions, loops, set digressions, thought ruptures, and etc. were due to a highly active narcissist personality, perha0ps pathological. But when I heard about the diet pills early this week, everything made much better sense.

Even attributing his speaking manner to hyper-egoism I could not explain to myself how he wouldn't be supremely bored delivering the same lines over and over (just woven into different orders). Would the energy of super-Alpha-male-ego-on-steriods be enough to keep the delivery of repetitious materials so sharp? . . . I could not swallow that.

But the diet pills made everything make sense. (I'm a child of the 1960's and had experience.) It brought everything into better focus, if you would.

12. I think it is primarily due to the fact that he is dumber than a bag of hammers. But yes, the meth

doesn't help, and these symptoms do fit.

13. It's not appearance, it's reality...

They are "Rambling and Incoherent," as his he.

14. If you splice his speeches with Palin's, could you come up with something coherent?

Or would your editor explode causing a rift in the time and space continuum?
