He's got a lotta damn gall making this speech while people are suffering.

I'm hearing it on radio and applause sounds tepid at best but the callousness of him just plowing on with his "ain't we great" diatribes about business and taxes when he ought to be heading every disaster task force and acknowledging the desperate needs of the people is almost unimaginable.

And I might add he's not doing it well. He sounds tired and bored and finished.

"He sounds tired" (we sure are - of him!), "and bored" (with so little brain functioning, of course he's bored!), "and finished." (we can only hope!)

Trump blathering about his incredible-ness and his incredible tax plan and talking about his fucking campaign AGAIN. Seriously, it was grotesque, and I think many will find it grotesque. He didn't even bother to mention Texas again after the few sentences written for him at the beginning. No "prayers for Texas" nothing.
