Donald Trump followed up his late-night criticism of Hillary Clinton’s appearance at the Democratic National Convention with tweets dismissing the speech as a “very average scream.”
“Crooked Hillary Clinton made up facts about me, and ‘forgot’ to mention the many problems of our country, in her very average scream!” Trump wrote on Friday morning, twice calling the address “average.”
Trump wasn’t the only one to go after Clinton’s tone. Several male Fox pundits and New York Times columnist David Brooks commented on the Democratic presidential nominee’s “annoying vocal inflection” and “combative manner.”
In Trump’s view, Clinton failed to accurately express the looming dangers America faces and voters’ desire for a “LAW AND ORDER” president. He pointed to “Radical Islam” and police shootings as the kind of problems the former secretary of state ignored, though the final night of the DNC featured several military officials making the case for Clinton’s national security expertise and remarks from the families of police officers killed on duty.
He also knocked the length of her “very long” 57-minute speech. Trump’s own acceptance speech at the Republican National Convention clocked in at around 75 minutes.

The media coverage this morning of the very average Clinton speech and Convention is a joke. @CNN and the little watched @Morning_Joe = SAD!

Crooked Hillary Clinton mentioned me 22 times in her very long and very boring speech. Many of her statements were lies and fabrications!
