Was about to post the same thing. He never has anything of value to say, and it’s more or less a very unfunny Don Rickles insult routine (with the chance of pissing off adversaries thrown in for good measure).

What IS kind of funny, though, is the grave monotone he always uses at these events, thinking this makes him full of intelligence and gravitas...when in fact he’s full of shit and reading from a teleprompter.

But the way he seems focused on weapons and saber waving is a little disturbing.

Hitler/Mussolini speech tactics lately. Guess this is his main performance that he was warming up to.

Honestly, I was relieved this wasn't about Trump announcing the US's withdrawal from NATO
