Without his teleprompter....

[LoneLaugher]

...Obama doesn't know what year we're in.

On C-SPAN this morning he honored the outstanding police officers of 2003.

...and this was broadcast from the East Room of the White House...to all 57 states!

I actually put ZERO credence in what HuffPost publishes. President Trump has made some remarkable speeches so far. I expect this one to be great also. Obama is famous for failing when his teleprompter takes a dump. Trump can speak well without one.

You are insane.

Lets take a close look at his speech to the boy scouts in July. It was painful to watch.

"I said, 'Who the hell wants to speak about politics when I'm in front of the Boy Scouts?' Right?"

Trump, apparently. He spent the VAST majority of this speech jabbing at his political foes and recounting his 2016 successes.

"He better get them. Oh, he better -- otherwise, I'll say, 'Tom, you're fired.' I'll get somebody."
This "joke" was directed at Health and Human Services Secretary Tom Price who was, awkwardly, standing on stage next to Trump. It came amid Trump's public effort to force Sessions to resign and less than a week after Trump threatened Sen. Dean Heller, R-Nevada, on health care.

"As the Scout Law says: 'A Scout is trustworthy, loyal' -- we could use some more loyalty, I will tell you that." Was this about Sessions? Republicans in the Senate on health care? Staffers leaking to reporters? All of the above?

"I'm waving to people back there so small I can't even see them. Man, this is a lot of people."
This has to be a record, right?

"By the way, what do you think the chances are that this incredible, massive crowd, record-setting is going to be shown on television tonight? One percent or zero?"

"By the way, just a question, did President Obama ever come to a jamboree?"
"Who the hell wants to speak about politics when I'm in front of the Boy Scouts?"

"I'll tell you a story that's very interesting for me when I was young. There was a man named William Levitt -- Levittowns, you have some here, you have some in different states."
This is my favorite part of the entire Trump speech. He regales a crowd of kids -- most of whom are teenagers -- about life in New York in the post-World War II age. Nothing like knowing your audience!

"Oh, you're Boy Scouts, but you know life. You know life. So -- look at you."
???????

"And in the end he failed, and he failed badly. Lost all of his money."
Aim for the stars, kids!

"I saw him at a cocktail party, and it was very sad because the hottest people in New York were at this party."
Again, Trump is speaking to a crowd of teenagers. And recounting his glory days in New York City high society -- decades before they were even born.

"You have to know whether or not you continue to have the momentum, and if you don't have it, that's OK. Because you're going to go on and you're going to learn and you're going to do things that are great."
Momentum is the key. Having it is everything. If you don't have it, though, everything is still going to be great.

"I have to tell you our economy is doing great."

For the 80th time: Trump is speaking to tens of thousands of teenagers.

"Do we remember that date? Was that a beautiful date? What a date."
He's talking about Election Day 2016.

"But do you remember that incredible night with the maps and the Republicans are red and the Democrats are blue, and that map was so red, it was unbelievable, and they didn't know what to say?"
"And you know we have a tremendous disadvantage in the Electoral College -- popular vote is much easier."
"Who the hell wants to speak about politics when I'm in front of the Boy Scouts?"

"I went to Maine four times because it's one vote, and we won. But we won -- one vote. I went there because I kept hearing we're at 269."
He's speaking to teenagers gathered for their annual Jamboree in West Virginia. And he's talking about how Maine splits its two electoral votes by congressional district.

"But then Wisconsin came in. Many, many years -- Michigan came in."
"Many, many years."
"Wisconsin hadn't been won in many, many years by a Republican. But we go to Wisconsin, and we had tremendous crowds. And I'd leave these massive crowds. I'd say, 'Why are we going to lose this state?'"

"So I have to tell you what we did, in all fairness, is an unbelievable tribute to you and all of the other millions and millions of people that came out and voted for Make America Great Again."
Most of the people who were in the audience weren't 18 in 2016.

"And by the way, under the Trump administration, you'll be saying 'Merry Christmas' again when you go shopping. Believe me. 'Merry Christmas.'"
Trump gave this speech on July 24.

"They've been downplaying that little, beautiful phrase. You're going to be saying 'Merry Christmas' again, folks."
"I promise you that you will live scouting's adventure every single day of your life, and you will win, win, win and help people in doing so."
So much winning. You will be bored by all of the winning.
"I've known so many great people."
The best people. Believe me.

When Rump Sends "The Best Words"

"Well he said, you’ll be the greatest president in the history of, but you know what, I’ll take that also, but that you could be. But he said, will be the greatest president but I would also accept the other. In other words, if you do your job, but I accept that. Then I watched him interviewed and it was like he never even was here. It’s incredible. I watched him interviewed a week later and it’s like he was never in my office. And you can even say that." --- AP interview
