No big blunders, though the speech had that hollow feel that accompanies scripted presentations from Trump.
It was just fine.
On CNN, though, it was a marvel of possibly historic proportions. Look, pitch perfect from the president right there, said John King, anchor and chief national correspondent for CNN. Im sure already there are some people out there because of the polarized environment we live in who wont like something they heard or wont trust something they heard or wont find truthfulness or credibility in something their president just said. I would hope that they would take a breath and let the president have his peace here, in the sense that he came out, he said he wanted to unify the country.
There was no asterisk on Kings words to indicate that he was grading on the curve. Nor does the polarized environment bear the blame for the presidents lack of credibility. His lies and untruths do.
CNN just keeps bending over for Il Douche
