    So classic that in your mind, yesterday = months ago

    So classic that you suddenly move the goal post and disqualify it because there was a teleprompter.

    So classic that you equate the misreading of a single letter as incoherence.

    So classic for a media site to shit on Trump for what even they admit is an "obvious" mix up that could happen to anyone

    So classic to create a story out of a non-story, just to create an opportunity to bring up some 2 year old bullshit about Trump

    So classic for that media site to find a so-called "expert" to debunk Trump's claim even though Trump's claim is undeniably true.

    You think it's a point of pride to be able to read most of a speech off a teleprompter? Lol, ya that's a sign of intelligence for sure. the guy can read most of the words put in front of him, wp gg.

    The challenge remains: find two minutes of Trump speaking on a policy issue in a coherent manner without assistance.

    He let cameras come into legislative talks on gun control this week. Did you catch that?

    Are you saying you have a video to show me or not?

    You know I don't have sound during working hours! Check this link out. There's a whole playlist under the main video window of short videos that show Trump talking about all kinds of stuff. The subtitles made sense to me, but I'm sure you'll just call it all incoherent drivel.

    https://www.cnn.com/2018/02/28/polit...ing/index.html

    And honestly, to find a president talking off teleprompter for more than a few seconds, you'd almost have to go back to a time before the teleprompter was invented.

    Why don't you just say what your point is hmmm??

    I can't imagine why you think Trump has trouble communicating. The guy uses a 4th grade vocabulary. Are there words you don't understand??

    The guy fucked up one god damn letter in the first video I posted and you just bathed yourself in confirmation bias. I really don't see any value in fighting you through this juvenile "challenge" you've initiated.

    Actually if you recall my original argument was he is an incoherent idiot when it comes to policy matters.

    Your response was to post a video of him reading off a teleprompter, which only goes to show he can read, not that he's erudite when it comes to policy.

    So when you get home from work, go through your playlist and find two minutes of him speaking off the cuff about policy in a coherent manner. Should be easy if he's as smart as you claim he is. I've provided plenty of examples of him being incoherent, you're only being asked to provide one example of the opposite. And you're failing miserably.

    And fyi, there are things called interviews where presidents get asked questions about policy, and they're not reading off a teleprompter. And invariably Trump rambles on incoherently in those as well. Would you like me to post a few transcripts of interviews to prove it, or are you happy to accept his general incoherence as a given?

    We're just gonna go down a rabbit hole debating "what is incoherent". Count me out.

    I feel like I understand everything he's saying. Yes, it's happened that he's thought three sentences at once, swished them all together in his mouth, and spat them out on phrase at a time. He does that alot. That doesn't mean he's an incoherent idiot. The only people that seem to have trouble understanding him are the media shitheads who have financial/career incentives to mock soundbytes and pass it off as political commentary.

    Perfect example, the link you posted earlier today mocked Trump for thinking that babies shouldn't be born at 9 months. Trump knows how long it takes for a baby to be born. No sensible person actually thinks that Trump thinks it's wrong for a baby to be born after 9 months gestation. Yet there it is, in black and white. A 70 year old misread one friggen letter within some small print, and suddenly we're accusing him of not knowing 2nd grade biology.

    I really have no interest in engaging with people like that. Let me know when you want to have an adult conversation..
