Once he gives a better speech than the Gettysburg Address (at least according to him), he will stop qualifying his claim to being the bestest President ever, except maybe for Lincoln, and proceed to boast about being the best for the Blacks, as he likes to say, because he gave the best speech at a battlefield of the Civil War.
The WH bunker with upside down bible in hand or wonder if heās even considered not accepting the nomination?
I choose āplanned racismā.
Or to put another way, Trumpās speech will be about or as if the traitors had won the battle of Gettysburg.
Thunder & Lightening & torrential downpour & fierce winds ⦠would be nice ā¦
Or Chancellorsville
Trumpās jonesinā to announce it in the Lincoln Bedroom, getting massaged by a shirtless Putin while Ivanka and Melania peel his grapes sporting come hither, duck-face looks into the camera to their MAGAt KoolAid drinkers
I almost want him to do it at Gettysburg because there will be endless contrasts between Trumpās speech and Lincolnās Gettysburg Address and the difference between an imbecile and a legitimately great leader could not be more stark.
For someone who is, for all intents and purposes, functionally illiterate, and who obtained at least five dodgy deferments during Vietnam, giving an acceptance speech at the most famous battlefield memorial in the United States, and site of perhaps the most famous example of presidential oratory in history, is such a good look.
Heās just doing this to tweak people. He doesnāt even know what happened at Gettysburg, itās just the only Civil War battle that he can remember (and as many have pointed out, clearly he doesnāt know who won), and he knows that Lincoln spoke there.
Once one of the Good-People-From-Both-Sides-Other-Side tells him the relevance, heāll be looking for a different place.
People arenāt exaggerating when they say this is the most consequential election since 1860, heās making that dog whistle at a very low pitch.
Wait, I thought it was going to be the biggest ever, in person-convention in Jacksonville. So what ever happened?
The other nice thing about doing it at Gettysburg is itās a giant open field which means someone can sky write āTrump is a loserā in the background from 20 miles away and it will show up during his speech.
Stone Mountain gets my vote. Whatever the Dotard touches he turns it into shit, so holding his nomination speech from Stone Mountain will turbocharge the movement to get rid of the horrendous monument to Treason.
Yes, but he chose Gettysburg so I went with 50% casualties for the Rebels and pretty much the deciding defeat of Leeās campaign in PA.
Hey Donald, why not Little Bighorn? Iām sure a nice, rambling speech by Your Favorite President will really help the GOP keep that senate seat.
Well, the way I see it, since heās currently contributing to the deaths of thousands of Americans, he may as well campaign on the site of thousands of previous American deaths regardless of the fact that many of them were traitors.
Thatās a lot of new information for DT to read for the first time as he gives the speech.
How about in the Kremlin?
This is part of his familiar reality TV routine. Make announcements, get lots of press, dominate a news cycle, rinse and repeat. First it was the White House and people ran around yelling about it. Now theyāll run around yelling about this. Weāve been playing our part, and I feel a little dirty about that. Who knows where it will wind up happening? I think itās time for me to not care.
Iām asking myself why I should care where Trump gives his vile encomium to himself. He desecrates every place he stands. Let him choke on his own gibberish in whichever venue he choses.
Planned.
Just like he is now playing footsie with the Rushmore issue.
He is trying to incite people, at times just to enjoy the pain he creates.
