10: 20 PM: Trump seems like he has his demeanor in check. But if he gives the speech that was released in advance it’s going to be a jarring contrast with the one Ivanka just gave.

10:21 PM: He’s already departing from the prepared speech. Now he’s back.

10:26 PM: Here’s the transcript so you can follow along.

10:29 PM: Coming off Ivanka’s speech, which was basically a Democratic speech, I kind of thought it this would have a different feeling. But we’re back to a pretty dark vision.

10:31 PM: “One international humiliation after another.” … this is a Trump speech.

10:32 PM: Humiliation is the thoroughgoing theme.

10:33 PM: Resisted the “lock her up” chant!

10:37 PM “The most important difference between our plan and that of our opponents, is that our plan will put America First. Americanism, not globalism, will be our credo. As long as we are led by politicians who will not put America First, then we can be assured that other nations will not treat America with respect. This will all change in 2017.”
