(38,601 posts)Snip: As cities burned night after night and images of violence dominated television coverage, Trumps advisers discussed the prospect of an Oval Office address in an attempt to ease tensions. The notion was quickly scrapped for lack of policy proposals and the presidents own seeming disinterest in delivering a message of unity.

(58,656 posts)and they're right. Trump is incapable of making a 'once more into the breach' speech because he has no experience overcoming obstacles. He has juked and jived every time something happened to him and never once in his life actually stood up and faced something.
He's a coward, to be sure. If he did go out there and read a speech in his hostage video persona, it would just make him look like the fucking emotional zombie he is.

(37,160 posts)It would go like so many of his other "required" speeches: he'd robotically recite what staff members put up on a teleprompter, more than half pouting at feeling coerced into something he doesn't want to do.
And if he decided to wander off-script... hoo-boy.
