Trump Speak

[Dee]

I watched Pete Hegseths' speech this morning until it became redundant. It was, in my opinion, full of excellent content, and well delivered. And then Trump gave his "me, my, I, best ever, first in history, best in history, and so on, and so on speech. 
Biden needed someone to direct him on how to get off stage, and which way to walk, and someone to basically do his job for him.
Trump on the other hand does a good  job, but needs a moderator with a mike kill switch, and a time limit on telling us how great he is. I voted for him all 3 times, but I'm aware of what he has done, and don't need to be told again,and again, and again, every time he gets hold of a microphone. 

[Goldie]

Biggest problem with our president is his big mouth. Otherwise he's great!

[ironglowz]

IMO..What some believe to be braggadocio, I tend to believe is Trump's style of coaching..

  Yes, i watched Pete's speech and thought it to be "spot on" !  It was "just what the doctor ordered", for a military demoralized by the Obama & Obama administrations...both of them !

  This speech was announcing a wholesale shift, back to what the U S armed forces have been, since their inception, back in 1775 ! ...What I woulkd have welcomed to hear when I served, which was long before the recent decline.

   When you want to military to change, talk to the heads...and if those heads don't comply, those heads will roll !

   The latest enlistees can now know that they are entering an honorable and dedicated brotherhood and sisterhood, in the case of real and normal men and women.

  No misfits needed..

   ..But I don't think Pete's message stops there.. the rest will be discussed behind closed doors. Personally, I believe this is also a "shot across the bow", for the EU to
    start acting like they believe in western culture enough to fight for it !

 I call it the east coast ego syndrome. Especially around the NJ, NY and eastern PA area's. More blowhard's that say, I can do anything you can do and better and cheaper, and faster- anda- anda-anda they go on. Trump is past the point of putting a muffler on it, best thing to do is put the mute button on and go get a beer. If he's still talking when you get back, go get the chips and take your time.

   Could well be, I know many of those I served with who were from NY City, were an abrasive bunch. Yes, Trump was raised in NY City and apparently had adopted some
    of this, NY City jargon.

  However, Pres Trump has proven to be perhaps one of the most effective men of today's world, but to his credit...that gusto is what gets things done !

   So let's just enjoy and appreciate what he has already accomplished, despite the boastfulness..

   Meanwhile, Hegseth in the last few minutes of his speech seems to be taking us back to the old "brown boot" Army, so far as iron discipline is concerned..

     Don't just take my word for it, just listen to him yourself...   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7TFtVZnQWjc

Pretty good guess all here but a few have voted Trump in the past, Best President in my lifetime. I have learned when he is at a rally, news conference or whatever to wait for the initial information to come out then turn off the channel and tune in something else.

ADZACKLY! After the 1st 10 minutes, everything else is a re-run, and gypsyman, I wholeheartedly agree.

[DDZ]

Trump has a narcissistic character. Its part of him that makes him a good president.  I have known other men that are narcissists that seem to get leadership roles.   

[Dee]

I don't disagree that he's a good president, I agree concerning his narcissistic ego is what kept him engaged when so many were trying to take him out. Not many men these days would have withstood that much stress.
But some of the best leaders I've seen over my lifetime were quite, direct, and all business. But I'm with Goldie on Trumps rallies, and news conferences. 10 minutes! Got it! Later dude.

[Mule 11]

Yeah butt, ya know, rosie O’Donnell butt. Think of all the lefties who listen to him with their heads literally ready to implode …

[Goldie]

Good one Mule, how right you are! The people that appreciate Donald knows when to turn him off,  the haters keeps listening to him and goes into convulsions.  Funny stuff.

  I can take a boastful, rough communicator who tells the truth, much better than a smooth, mellifluent talker like Obie...who simply tells one lie piled upon another..

I have a channel changer. I don't have to listen to either.

I tend to look at his policies, and actions , and spend less time listening to him speak. To be honest, sometimes I'm embarrassed by it. I'm impressed by his actions. (Not all) But most by far.

[Bob Riebe]

     I have a feeling , one reason Pres. Trump speaks in such , in your face boastful manner, is he know it will get reactions that tell the wheat from the chaff. 

     Still annoying though.

I think he talks like he does because his ego is at least as big as trump tower.

[ironglowz]

  I think he speaks as he does, to suck in his enemies and get them to either make stupid statements, or make stupid moves..

  Sometimes he baits in the self-centered politicians, by photo shopping a mustache and sombrero on their photo..

  Everyone knows Hakeem has no mustache, nor does he wear a sombrero.  ..But nonetheless, Hakeem fell into the trap and came off looking  retarded..

  ...And bloated Schumer followed in Hakeem's footsteps.   ...Seems it only flips out the already self absorbed politicians.

   I say..."keep it up Don...so long as it makes the leftist super-egos look stupid !"

Look IG, Pete is just parroting DJT. Dang IG! Trump is not our Savior, and he will never walk on water. I believe in pointing out everything good we see in someone, but we shouldn't overlook the weak side of someone as well. Trump IMO is not a great speaker. Even if he thinks he is. And give credit to the team once in a while without tagging it with how great I am. Like most of us on this forum, I voted for the man everytime! That doesn't mean I'm going to agree with everything he does, or tries to do. He has some flaws I wish he would work on. He might just bring more to our side with a little less Self Glorification. "I'll Duck now!

Only you could come up with a synopsis like that. Constantly not grasping the obvious, and embellishing your own "theoretical truth".

As nw_hunter said, Trump is a mortal man with a huge ego. While you make think his bombastic antagonistic attitude is entertaining, I, and others would prefer that he give credit to the people actually doing the work, and skip his continual double-jointed self back patting.

   Nobody; especially myself, has ever claimed Trump to be immortal or flawless.  He has his flaws, but his antagonists are already spending overtime hours pointing those things out !

  So why would his detractors need my help in trying to cut him down !  Do you guys really think Hakeem, Pelosi, Ilhan Omar, Schumer and AOC and the MSM, need
   our help in their efforts to disparage him ?

[Goldie]

I just wish one time I could watch a news update or questions at Him that He doesn't go off the charts explaining his actions. Short and sweet.

[darkgael]

“Nobody; especially myself, has ever claimed Trump to be immortal or flawless.”
LOL
You are his number one cheerleader.. I do not recall any time you have offered a criticism of DJT.
What do you think about the proposed Trump dollar? About his lobbying for a spot on Mt. Rushmore? About his lobbying for the Nobel Peace prize?

[Dee]

LOL, you just don't see the perfection of DJT like ig does. ig has DJT clarity, and discernment. 

As for a DJT coin? If they can put that sorry queer sonofabitch Lincoln on a penny, why not Trump on dime. 

As far as Mt Rushmore? It would be better viewing if they dynamited Lincoln, and Roosevelt off, and gave the whole thing back to the Sioux.

[Goldie]

Agree about Rushmore,  who needs it? Not me.

     Must I repeat myself? In fact, you quoted my statement to the effect that he is far from perfect.. 

     After all, only one perfect man ever walked this earth..and the people of we face, are of the same type who.... crucified Him.

  Why did you not quote that entire post, since it had only one more line...  which said;

    " So why would his detractors need my help in trying to cut him down !  Do you guys really think Hakeem, Pelosi, Ilhan Omar, Schumer and AOC and
    the MSM, need our help in their efforts to disparage him ? "

   Why should anyone here call him a dog, when there are already people out there who are fully occupied doing just that?  Fact is they have already tried to assassinate   him twice !  Only a coward jumps on a guy who is already being pummeled by all kinds of lies and assassination threats !

   Trump refuses allow all kinds of threats..threats to jail him for 760 years..take all he owns and then threaten his whole family...to keep him from running again, so he could try to save our nation from the God-hating communists..

   NO!.. I won't climb on an join in with those who so gleefully pummel !

  Steve Bannon explains it well, an dI will believe him far ahead of Pelosi, Schumer or Antifa !   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n0EjZJ1-VSc

     From people who have met him personally, both sides of the ail, they say he is a totally different person, who is very pleasant, does not brag him self up, and listens.

     Why the difference, business men do not share being number one, if they can avoid it. They see only one, number one and that is how he was raised.
