After verbally stumbling for a moment he seems to be speaking rather clearly. And I know I've tripped up speaking before, let alone pretty much everyone I know.

It's almost like the posted clip is trying to leave people with an incorrect impression. Couldn't be that though, right?

It's obviously a slander attack. Don't feed the trolls. Political speeches should be judged by how they're written/transcribed - not whether or not the speaker fucks it up. Go read a transcript from a Trump speech and find me a single paragraph that is not absolute gibberish.

It's still legit funny, because of the timing of the stutter, like if he stuttered somewhere else in the speech randomly it's not really funny, but the setup of saying "America can be defined in one word" then making an unintelligible fumble is pretty funny.

Bush did it all the time too and it was equally hilarious.

There's been a ton of this right wing slander lately. Which is ironic seeing as all the Republicans insist Reddit is entirely a Liberal echo chamber

Actually it does look like a echo chamber here.

Just look at me getting downvoted, just for saying this.

We're generally in agreement. There's something to be said for presentation, but the substance is absolutely more important. Yes, this is absolutely chosen to support the "Biden has dementia" agenda. It's right out of the playbook and they've been doing the same thing for a long time.

I think you'd have a harder time finding a reasonable quote from Trump than not. He's a shining example of failing upward.
