That was a good speech.
teleprompter must've been too slow
You can basically see the strings attached to him as he talks.
I'm baffled [editline]e[/editline] even moreso by the youtube comments
I watch this and I just don't understand how lol, it baffles me so much
The comments are amazing.
trump talking from a script and not doing his usual trump-ism motions and random tangents is so weird
I can't remember any other politician or public speaker so obviously following a teleprompter. Or maybe it's all the jokes he made about them back in the campaign days coming back to bite him in the ass [t]http://media1.s-nbcnews.com/j/msnbc/components/video/201610/f_trump_prompter_161014.nbcnews-ux-1080-600.jpg[/t]
This is so weird.
Surprised that the video doesn't have more dislikes.

I can't imagine trump following a teleprompter for 2 hours when he does his state of the union address
Every comment on that video reads like a canned pre-made shill message.
I came into this thread expecting some kind of parody video, not to feel uneasy as I watched a video of Trump reading from a teleprompter. Throughout the whole video I was expecting for some kind of editing to come in, especially when he said "this administration has hit the ground running."
I thought you were avoiding political stuff RIPBILLYMAYS?

[QUOTE=ZombieDawgs;51742287]DAPL is back on the table? For [I]fuck[/I] sake[/QUOTE] It's far and away the least controversial thing he has done in the past 7 days.

[QUOTE=Marbalo;51742304]I can no longer tell whether or not this many people actually support him, or it's just my social bubble showing how disconnected and sheltered from the outside world at large it really is. I dont know if these comments are 'shills' or not, they do read like ones, however here in Israel and in Russia, people really like Trump. And I do mean really. Come to think of it, Facepunh is the only place I've seen where people are actually criticising Trump online.[/QUOTE] In terms of offline it's really hard for me to gauge because you have to talk to twenty people before you come across a Democrat but I see a lot of hate for him online outside of FP which is nowhere [I]near [/I]the most critical place I've seen.

Naturally people mostly disapprove Trump and the Republican party in general over here, and Trump being as controversial as he is causes his opposition to act more vocally, understandably. Most of Facepunch traffic comes from the US, mostly in the 18-29 range, which is known to be more prominently left leaning overall - this being a huge simplification however. This is according to Alexa and the Pew Research Center.

It's almost as if they know nothing about it! You can't do it with any modern leader without loosing face and sounding like a conspiracy nut.
That was weird seeing him so restrained from his usual self lmao I feel like the subtle "it's about time" quip after the repealing of Obamacare was mentioned was the only real glimmer of Trump in the whole video tbf.

He hasn't invaded Poland but if you don't see that he's using the same awful tactics Hitler and many other dictators used to rise to power you're blind.
