If he had stopped there, or even 10  minutes further in, this speech would have registered as something kind of new and even a bit impressive from don the dense. But of course he couldn't  stop there. He went on until after midnight Eastern time, creating a transcript of well over 12,000 words. Simple math meant that three-quarters of the airtime ( the original was said to be 3,000 words)  was not a planned, written “speech” but instead a free association playlist from his familiar MAGA rally themes.</p></blockquote><p></p>
