Yup. You gotta wonder which of his speechwriters came up with that. And on that note, is his stable of speechwriters generally known? For all that their output has been vastly underutilized (and the delivery, when it _was_ used, wooden and unconvincing), is the position even something that a rational person would put on their resume? ---

I said in another thread that I wouldn’t be surprised if Twitter made the video a condition for re-establishing his account; I wouldn’t be surprised if they wrote the speech for him. It sounds nothing like any other speech he’s ever made, ---

That latest video of his was the first time I’ve ever seen a normal-seeming video of a politician and seriously thought “Is that a deepfake?” The video quality is terrible. I know it’s unlikely, and he’s probably just trying to avoid the 25th, but what if he’s actually under deep sedation, or left the country, or dead or something? ---

If he’s permanently banned from Twitter, we should probably resurrect the Trump suicide thread. I’m only half kidding. ---

Aw, _man!_ What’s going to happen to this thread now? (Seriously, I just saw this on the news, and all I could think of was why Twitter didn’t do it sooner. But at least they did it. What’s Trump going to do during the next 12 days if he can’t Tweet?) ---

> [@Spoons](#): > > … What’s Trump going to do during the next 12 days if he can’t Tweet? . Parler, presumably. But he won’t be able to get his numbers there anywhere near what they were at Twitter—no, not even if _every_ Russian makes a fake account there. So he’s going to remain very, very unhappy.
