I was listening upstairs on the radio (KFI 640 AM Los Angeles) and he REPEATED the entire paragraph about keeping us safe through the new year and beyond (did he get that from Buzz Lightyear?), and the calling attention to the Muslim country of Iran. HE REPEATED THE WHOLE THING VERBATIM.

I thought it was live, so I could not believe it. His prompter repeated a whole paragraph immediately and he didn't notice, just kept reading?

Now I see that it was not live but taped, so it could have been a KFI error.

Did anyone else hear that repetition?

It looks like they changed it to a live statement. I didn’t catch that he repeated a paragraph. He was reading from a script on the lecturn, not TOTUS. He looked pained by having to do this so he may very well have repeated himself.

I missed that repeated paragraph but on TV it went like this.

He would look down at the podium, say a few words, then a brief glance to the left and to the right like he looking for totus and then right back down to the podium.
He looked bothered to be there instead of being out playing golf or working on his tan or doing something really important.
