Trump’s eyes look red. I don’t think he’s slept much.

Agreed. Looks like he’s spending all his effort trying to moderate his tone. Nothing left upstairs to create a coherent response.

Do any of the news channels or streaming sources have one of those moving lines where a focus group is giving their reaction live on an electronic device? I always found that kind of interesting.

He’s already started with the sniffing. \<chortle!!\>

Does anyone remember Trump speaking before AIPAC? I expect his performance to be a lot like that one – sans teleprompter. And he still managed to insult the crap out of them.

What I recall was that he was visibly intimidated by the adults in the room and gave a pretty bad performance. I so hope he repeats it tonight.

Trump being defensive now. “Before I start on that question…let me say this…” Trump is not prepared.

Hope she mentions that Trump’s plans to reneg on US debt, and to start trade wars with the world, have been shown by economists right and left will eliminate many, many US jobs…hmmmm, nope.

Good for Lester to push Trump on exactly how he would stop companies from leaving.

Yup. I hope she pushes him more. Looks like her first probing shot showed weakness.

Trump wants to bring back the Smoot-Hawley Tariffs.

At least I think that’s what he said, between the sniffles.

Did Mr. Trump do a bunch of cocaine tonight? He’s sniffing like it. He’s aggressively rambling like it.
