Not really. I’ll bet if we polled all of Free Republic, a decent number haven’t seen any start to finish. I’ve heard that Fox interrupts the feed with their opinions. Don’t know about any others. I don’t have cable and stream on RSBN.
Public speaking is a skill so few of us are good at, and when I mean good I mean being informative, interesting and capturing the interest of your audience. The president is speaking to tens of thousands of people at every rally and holds their attention every time. The president knows most of us Americans are plain spoken and he doesnt talk down to us. He loves being amongst the hardworking American people, and its not a fake sentiment the way it is for Slow Joe who thinks he doesnt have to work for our vote!
Yep. I wish I had 20% of his skill at really connecting with an audience.
My audiences are most frequently just a handful up to a few hundred. I once spoke to 10,000 or so for a few minutes. That wasn’t that nerve wracking because I knew none of them were actually listening.
I love when Trump stops mid sentence and says “Wow, look at that crowd!”
There are a few times when it seems he’s truly stunned.
No PA will not be stolen. They will cheat, as always, but Trump wins (not by as much as he should).
I wouldnt have told you that maybe two or three weeks ago.
What is this all about? He was never losing. Not sure why things like this are said.
You have a skill that most Americans wish they had. Ive done some public speaking and it was nerve wracking for me each time, and I can say I was dull as dishwater. I think the presidents straightforward, plain spoken way of addressing the American people is very appealing.
I think you need to switch to Sanka.
Clearly you're not able to substantiate your incorrect position.
The Democrats shouldnt have pissed him off.
Concern trolls will troll no matter what.
Yeah, but it would be nice if he could point out that Biden’s tax plan would cost 4.1T, double the US budget. That the WSJ pointed out mean income for household would decrease by $6500 by 2030 instead of just ‘Biden is going to raise your taxes’.
at this point, trump literally seems to be the only person standing in the way of the destruction of our liberties.
this would be a good time for a cavalry to come to the rescue. i am nervous.
I believe his strategy is to demonstrate the huge contrast between him and Biden.
I dont think its a political strategy - it is just the way he is by nature. It is a perseverance that all successful people have.
Get up early, pound the pavement, try out 150 ideas a day - most go nowhere but a few pan out... dont go out and party at night.
Then, the next day do it again.
Most people with successful businesses failed a thousand times for each success but they didnt look back they just tried again and again.
He had the reputation of being a playboy but I think that was mostly because he was a rich celebrity, schmoozing with important people - so theres a lot of pictures of him wearing a tux - but I doubt he was really out partying.
He kept his nose to the grindstone.
Yes, hes very smart, but there are a lots of very smart people. Hes a hard worker on top of being very smart.
“””Clearly you’re not able to substantiate your incorrect position.””””
Clearly I do not care why you get so wound up over an innocuous post. Do you have someone to call to help you through this crisis?
I’m still waiting to hear about those hard fighting Republicans you think exist.
...his skill at really connecting with an audience.

I think it’s mostly innate. A gift or a talent, although he has honed it over the years, so there’s skill in that.
He paces like a radio talk show host, interrupting his thoughts for asides and then returning to what he already primed you to want to hear. It annoys some linear thinkers, but it’s effective.
... it would be nice if he could point out that Bidens tax plan would cost 4.1T, double the US budget. That the WSJ pointed out mean income for household would decrease by $6500 by 2030 instead of just Biden is going to raise your taxes.

Numbers are better in print than in speech. People tune out numbers and don’t retain them.
“Will raise your taxes” gets attention. Anyone interested can go look up the exact amounts.
And Biden crowing ‘no one making less than $400k will have their taxes raised’.
Trump, ‘Biden is going to raise your taxes’.
A few numbers mean a lot, IMO.
