Don Lemon: Trump Sounded Like He Didn't Know Meaning Of The Words, Used Big Words to Impress
RealClear Politics ^ | March 1, 2017 | Ian Schwartz

Posted on 03/01/2017 2:29:54 PM PST by Zakeet

CNN's Don Lemon analyzed President Donald Trump's address to a joint session of Congress on Tuesday night.

{snip]

The way President Trump speaks extemporaneously is not the same as what he said tonight. It sounded to me, and I thought he sounded very presidential, this is a speech written by a college student for someone else trying to use big words to impress the person who is reciting it did not know the meaning of the words. That's how it sounded?"

Did President Trump say umm, err or ahh even once in his amazing speech? I don’t recall even one.

At the time, we didn’t even have fuzzy UHF...mainly because we didn’t have a UHF tuner!

Eventually, tho, that problem was addressed and taken care of. Found out, subsequently, that we really weren’t missing much of anything (except Bruins hockey!).

CA....

Actually, it was an undergraduate degree in business at the Wharton School, part of ivy league UPenn. I just read an article about his years there. It claimed that he is is not remembered by very many people. If true, it could be because he was a transfer student in his third year and then spent weekends in NY city already working in the real estate development business.

Perhaps he had to take extra required courses that he hadn't had already. I would like to see the media pundits who attack his academic credentials take the math / analytic type classes required for a business degree.

Maybe because he didn't drink, smoke or do drugs he wasn't much interested in the college party scene of the late 60's.

Careful. Prntly makes stuff up.

Think about it. How would they get hold of this information?

It was wrong a few years back when a liberal fake news site "reported" on fake presidential IQs and it's wrong now when a pro-Trump fake news site "reports" on fake presidential IQs.

That sounds bogus, sort of like the “Lowenstein Institute” that found GWB to have the lowest IQ of any President.

He was a transfer student, lived off campus, and didn't have to take the core courses that everybody takes in the freshman or sophomore year (though he did take intro econ there). Similar to the last president in that way. And yes, he was already working for his father and more interested in doing practical things than in course work.

Candice Bergen, though, does remember him.

...or molesting young boys Sandusky style.

I attended a NYC female college in the 70s. Many of the girls dated the young Trump through dances given with Yale/Harvard/Columbia and other Ivy Leagues. The reports I got back were that he was a somewhat boring young man. Obviously, hiding himself under a bushel - but may explain why Wharton doesn’t have strong memories of him.

Columbia doesn’t even have a registration of Obama!

Whenever we see bs like this posted we should post your comment: Don’t believe the Lying Leftist Media. They are presumed to be lying and we should assume that what they publish is a lie. The presumption can only be rebutted with the outlet providing clear and convincing evidence they are not lying.

Or mine: Rule of thumb, if the media is reporting a negative story on Trump (when are they ever positive ?), it’s a lie until proven otherwise.

[the rest of us understood everything the President said]

To make this quote believable, DON LEMON should list the words he doesn’t understand.

Hmm...
A chart listing HOLLYWOOD STAR high school dropouts recently made the rounds on FR. I wonder, is DON LEMON one of them?

If we could eliminate the following from Obama's verbal vocabulary without a teleprompter: I, I, I, me, me, uh uh, and ummmm. He might not be able to talk nor pee without a teleprompter.
