I think his delivery of it, as stream of consciousness, is certainly better than it appears as a wall of text without paragraphs.

In terms of a speech I find his stream of consciousness more authentic than something that’s been run over by seven speechwriters and five focus groups. He usually gets something worthy of social media - his self depreciating comments about his hair were classic Trump comedy lines. It’s better than:

“It’s great to be here in <name>, isn’t Governor/Senator (delete as appropriate) <name> fantastic.

Five minutes on national security

Five minutes on the economy, in particular any local issues that might have reached national attention. Quote some economic stat that’s probably irrelevant to most people - the Nasdaq or mortgage approval rates.

Five minutes weaponising Roe v Wade

Five minutes accusing the other party of stealing the last election, or comparing the other to Hitler <delete as appropriate>

Vote jfman 2024!”

However, I do think just as with calling into question Biden it’s entirely appropriate to call into question Trump in this regard. Trump would be older at inauguration than Biden was in 2021. Does America want another declining old man as leader?
