“The truth of the matter is you saw the State of the Union and you watched that performance. It was surreal. There was something going on and if we can find the truth of what it was, we are all better off.

“I will simply say, watching Donald Trump for four years and frankly, watching Donald Trump in New Jersey talk to 107,000 people, he doesn’t need a teleprompter. He doesn’t need notes. He is just strong as can be because he’s fighting for the American people.
“They can spell it and we can see it.” – Sen. Tim Scott, lying about the size of Trump’s New Jersey rally crowd, lying about Trump’s dependence on teleprompters, and bootlicking yet again for that VP slot.

35 seconds! That’s how long Trump froze when his teleprompter stopped scrolling at yesterday’s NRA convention. He can’t think or speak without a teleprompter. All he could do was shake his head in frustration & grimace in embarrassment until it restarted.pic.twitter.com/fmIZpXxKG3
