The Lincoln Project does another comedic turn today with this 74-second condensation of the Minden, Nevada rally on Saturday. As you recall, Trump was nasal and slurring his speech the entire 90 minutes — and talking about bald eagles dying near windmills and his usual lunacy.

The speech put me in mind of a past-his-prime crooner, doing the old favorites for the crowd for nostalgia’s sake. Windmills causing cancer, ruining TV reception and killing birds isn’t amusing the 50th time you hear it. But Trump’s is not an original mind.

  1. My favorite quote by Trump-O was, as covered by NBC News…..

    “He added that he doesn’t fear contracting COVID-19 when he hosts a rally because when he’s on stage he’s “very far away” from the audience and is therefore “not at all concerned.””

    Ummm….the point isn’t about you dumbass….it’s about the unwashed masses at your hate fests spreading the virus to normal people after the crosses have been burned.

  2. “The speech put me in mind of a past-his-prime crooner, doing the old favorites for the crowd for nostalgia’s sake.”

    Well, it’s not necessarily “for nostalgia’s sake.” Interestingly enough, Barbra Streisand explained why she does all her old songs in her concerts a few years back in her 2010 CD/DVD release “One Night Only,” a concert performance recorded at the Village Vanguard club in 2009. Before she performs “If You Go Away (Ne me quitte pas),” she recounts how she loved Jacques Brel’s music, specifically his song “Ne me quitte pas” (which Rod McKuen would “translate” as “If You Go Away”) and that she and a female friend of hers along with their husbands flew to Marseilles, France, and saw Brel in concert and she was so disappointed that he didn’t sing that song and it was that disappointment that led her to sing songs like “People” and “The Way We Were” in her live shows because she knew those songs usually had so much meaning to her fans and she never wanted to disappoint them, no matter how much she got “bored” singing them night after night after night. (I remember going to see Norah Jones in concert not long after she first started and this couple sitting next to me were hoping she’d do “Nightingale,” a song from her commercial debut album that they’d played at their wedding. And she didn’t do the song. I didn’t ask but I think they still enjoyed the show.)

  4. Two of us just now watched this and in unison said “what the eff was that?” Sadly, condensing it didn’t make it look worse–he talks gibberish even in straight verbal lines.
