President Trump had a rare moment of humility on Friday while speaking to reporters when he admitted it wasn’t “a good feeling” when his teleprompter cut out during his speech on Independence Day.
Bullcrap. He knew the text said “…and the ramparts,” which he mangled as “Ran the amparts” and then corrected to “ramparts”, then added “airports!” because he’s a freak who can’t make mistakes. He knew the right word because the teleprompter gave it to him.
He’s also lying about being able to do a 45-minute speech from memory that was only recently written for him. But that lie is like his 3000th most serious.
I had some sympathy for him, these things happen and it’s possible to blank out. It can happen to the best of us. Until I got to the end of the article.
“I knew the speech very well,” he continued. “So I was able to do it without a teleprompter but the teleprompter did go out.”
Yeah. Still a dick.
He was only incorrect about the airports, because everyone used aircraft carriers at the time. The British fleet was used to control its empire around the globe, and as air-to-air refueling hadn’t yet been invented, planes were limited in how far from the ship they could fly.
Surely everyone remembers how the British fire-bombed the WH in 1812.
“The teleprompter went out, it kept going on and then at the end it just went out, it went kaput, so I could’ve said — and actually right in the middle of that sentence it went out and that’s not a good feeling,” he said.

“When you’re standing in front of millions and millions of people on television and I don’t know what the final count was but that went all the way back to the Washington Monument.

“I knew the speech very well,” he continued. “So I was able to do it without a teleprompter but the teleprompter did go out.”
Wait – Trump needs a teleprompter??? Waiting for all the conservative outrage in 3 . . . 2 . . . 1 . . . [crickets] . . .
Yeah, his ignorance triumphed over his compulsion to read other lies from his teleprompter.
cervantes had a great one 3 hrs ago:
"That’s just silly. Trump was obviously referring to airfields.
The Mongolfier brothers were French but they were also mercenary. For thirty pieces of silver, they sold their hot-air-balloon technology to the British, who used it to terrorize Americans – until Washington seized the airfields, putting an end to the foreign menace."
Yeah, blame the French now for the GOP’s hot air emissions.
UPenn’s Wharton School must be so proud of the Trump legacy at that highly selective Ivy League camp for America’s rich and connected and white and stupid,
“The teleprompter went out, it kept going on and then at the end it just went out, it went kaput…”
“The weatherman is DEAD! I KILLED the weatherman! His STRENGTH is in me!”
Hey, it isn’t like he vacationed and played golf 24/7 like Obama did. Cut the man some slack.
So apparently he needs a teleprompter to know that airports weren’t around during the Revolutionary war.
Once again, Donnie demonstrates one of his numerous fundamental character flaws:
Refusal to accept responsibility for his own mistakes, failures, and shortcomings.
Wait till the oligarchs clamor for lotsa $ to build the Presidential Library at Penn for this traitor!
Was the drinking word(s) anything to do with airplanes, that’s why he had o say it to keep the crowd happy?
It all makes sense now. He was winging it, er, thinking ahead … to today’s flight aboard Aircraft One to his golf course in New Jersey for a long weekend.
(No, I’m not making that up. He’s going golfing.)
His response makes it even worse… tp ad lib such a bizarre comment tells the world he is plain stupid.
He was fragged by his own communications staff.
“I knew that speech very well. I was glad to put the airport line in because not everyone knows how the Revolutionists saved the armpits and airports.”
I think the world already knows.
