We know he can't. Talking points from talking heads on TV


sort by: page size:

It can't, he's talking out his arse.

None. He's talking out of his hat!

Can't deny the man can talk - and can identify a damn good speechwriter when he finds one.

That's his ego talking.

Easily one of his best bits and he did it on a talk show.

He knows. He's speaking colloquially.

Yeah, he's there exactly for this talking point.

Only in his unscripted communications. His reputation as a speaker stems from his delivery of messages that are usually pre-written. He's got plenty of dramatic pauses where normal people would say "ummm".

He can talk?

If we remember their thousands of interviews in european radios, tvs, local, national and international press, It seems he has granted much more opportunities to express their ideas freely than any of us. He definitely can talk. Can talk for hours about himself and his bizarre world. Can talk until you start thinking about suicide.

The fact that lots of people in Europe wouldn't touch him anymore with a fifty foot pole and that Canadians panicked this same week about the idea of receiving him in Canada, is probably related with the fact that he can talk, but is definitely unable to stop talking.


He has spoken.

> Says all there needs to be said, about his ability to have a real conversation on his own platform.

I'm going with "people on Facebook think he needs to go out on a 'listening tour' so he did".


That's how he talks. Watch any interview with him.

We aren't reading his mind, we're listening to his words.

He's so sharp and clear on what he wants to say, especially wrt race. Ahead of the general conversation too.

The fact that he repeats himself so often is more than enough to get the point across.

He uses the more interesting "One thing in every one of my speeches will be true" technique. Makes for entertaining press conferences.

It's not just the content, but his popularity and speaking ability.

I think that makes him the authority to talk.
