He's claiming the microphone being defective is what caused him to be so incoherent. Whatever it takes to settle the sheep, I guess.

This is a man who has had everything handed do him in his privileged life. Whenever he fails or does less than expected (like tonight), something has to be unfair. The lights were too bright. The lights were too dim. The hall was too big. Or too small. His mic was cutting out. His podium was too high. The floor was too shiny. It's always something, but never Trump's fault.

When you can't legitimately win. (Donald Blowfish NEVER has legitimately won anything) Your first stop is 'working the refs'. That's why he is in and out of court every other day... Looking for a loophole. Trying to exhaust the judges and the opposition until they let him win out of sheer boredom.

It's really boring.
