Apparently Trump spoke at CPAC for over 2 hours.
He invited everyone there (all 200?) to D.C. for July 4th, where apparently there will be free speech exclusions (and his comments on Otto Warmbier were not his fault!):After more than 2 hours, Trump is finally done talking. His 2019 CPAC address was unhinged even by his standards. pic.twitter.com/5vyKLcxzFx— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar) March 2, 2019
Why"freedom of speech?" Funny you should ask:TRUMP: "We need your incredible spirit on the 4th of July. We are having, in Washington DC, a great tribute to America. I hope you can all come. The 4th of July, keep it open. We want to bring millions of people into the city & we want people to come who love our country." pic.twitter.com/Yf5yO59OlE— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar) March 2, 2019
Oh, and the problem with Congress is democracy:TRUMP: "Today I'm proud to announce that I will be soon signing an executive order requiring colleges and universities to support free speech if they want federal dollars." pic.twitter.com/xDF5KLcrSu— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar) March 2, 2019
"Unhinged" is too kind.All Members of Congress swear an oath to "support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same" https://t.co/i0pzE4z8Gz https://t.co/GWPsJduKXE— Steve Reilly (@BySteveReilly) March 2, 2019

I'd read about him claiming no one had left even as people had been streaming out of his rant. Someone should warn him that his audience doesn't have an attention span that goes for more than an hour, and that's WITH commercial breaks. Most of them probably don't have the bladder capacity to go for two hours.
ReplyDeleteHis 4th of July celebration is going to be the biggest ever! Already! Reports to the contrary are fake news now.
