Trump's speech on racism

Various cable news are reporting that the WH is considering letting Trump make a speech on racism. Now I usually make a point of switching the channel whenever he appears on TV. But I don't think I could resist watching the colassal butt show of a Dimwit speech about racism. A speech that would surely include every dog whistle and white racist platitude possible. Completely miss the point of social justice and BLM. Have no solutions. Probably announce some commission composed of more of his asshole grifter cronies, and be derided far and wide.

And gosh golly, we would surely get the additional delightful treat of asshole Republican congressmen and senators praising his speech and mouthing their own empty platitudes.

A Trump speech on racism. I get excited just thinking about it.

It is obvious that Donald Trump has learning disabilities. He does not read books to increase his knowledge on anything.

His inability to comprehend whatever is presented before him, quick to repeat what he does not understand, difficulty in pronouncing multi-syllable words, inability to communicate thoughts, to even having diffuculty reading from a teleprompter. His educational development was severely lacking in his youth, as it shows up now in how he behaves.

Why am I so critical of Trump and his ability to give an address, especially on Racism? He has no idea how the world works. He knows NO history.

If it really is given, it will be delivered without any visible emotional response that he believes the words he is reading.
