Default I hesitate to stir the nest...

I hesitate to disturb the nest… We’ve done so well of late at holding our political tongues here on the General Board.

All I want to do with this thread is focus on/expose Trump’s lack of ability to express himself using the spoken word – something he declared he was “the best” at doing:

And something that we know something about, presumably, here on the Sphere.

I am continually flummoxed by the incredibly poor quality of his messages – not the message content – the grammatical construction of the message. And he has a team of linguists and writers at his disposal! I’m talking specifically about sentence construction and word choice – nothing else. It’s appalling. Made all the more appalling by the fact that he doesn’t seem to be aware that we’re aware that he is not aware that he is verbally, pathetically ill-equipped to represent the office he holds based on his use of language alone.

Here's a miniscule example:
(From his tax reform speech) “…A tax bill that will give middle class taxpayers finally, finally, finally and want to deserve.” W.T.F?
