It's like he'd never even seen the word before. Maybe he hadn't. He sure didn't read or rehearse the speech someone else wrote.

Is so fucking lazy, you know he didnt practice a read thru so an assistant could correct any mispronunciation. Does he have ANY redeeming qualities? Outside of the deplorables, who in their right mind would vote for him after his abysmal incompetent performance in the last 3.5 years ?

(2,193 posts)28. Exactly. FUCK IT! He can't read. He. Can. Not. Read.
And you know it, if from no other clue, by how firmly he claims he is a great reader.
He can't do graphs or charts, either.

Basic reading, can't do it.
BusyBeingBest
(8,054 posts)29. He doesn't read. He's never made the connection
between the spoken word and the written word. He thinks it's Yoze-might. He's an illiterate doofus.

Following the speech, Obama and the first family took off for a day-long hike around Yosemite.
