In a characteristic speech full of digression and focus on his own problems, President Donald Trump stumped in Kentucky Monday ostensibly to pump up Republican turnout for Gov. Matt Bevin’s (R) reelection race Tuesday.
According to Politico, Trump ally Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) also took to the stage to demand the unmasking of the whistleblower who touched off the impeachment inquiry.
Many in the audience reportedly wore shirts emblazoned with “read the transcript,” an odd mantra for Trump and his fans who insist that the fairly blatant quid pro quo in the White House’s call memo of Trump’s call with the Ukrainian President is a “fake news” concoction.
In the course of his hour-and-twenty-minute speech, Trump eventually made his way back to the subject at hand.
“We work together. Now he is difficult, I have to say. You know. Maybe it’ll cost him the election,” Trump said of Bevin. “He’s such a pain in the ass. But that’s what you want.”
Kentuckians will pick between Bevin and Democrat state Attorney General Andy Beshear at the polls Tuesday. The polls showed the two in a dead heat on election day.
Try to imagine listening to this for 1 hour and 20 minutes, one minute is too much. Are these people all brain dead?
Did Bevin expect tRump to deliver anything else? Word to Republican operatives: an invitation to have tRump speak on behalf of your candidate is an invitation for him to blather >90% of the time about himself.
I can barely even force myself to read his words because I hear that loathsome voice in my head as I go. Actually listening to even seconds of it is impossible for me.
And that smirk of his. If ever there was a face in need of a smack, there it is.
Them Trumpers shore do fancy themselves a pity party.
Brain dead ? Yes!
Trump is trying to take their Obama Care away and their mining jobs are not happening.
But they will vote Repub to show how unhappy they are.
