Well no, but how funny would it be to have all news articles written like they're Trump speech transcripts? That would be hilarious. Just incoherent rambling to no end and repeating the same thing like five times in a paragraph.
Why settle for that when you can have the written version of this:

So Trump is more well-spoken than Obama, is what you're getting at?
I think they are different speakers. If the measure of good speech is effectiveness, they are two of the greatest who have ever lived. My point is that transcribing live speech into articles is a bad idea in general.
I dunno if it's something to "both sides" as it's the case in every instance for Trump and rarely for or Obama.

I thin Obama is a better classical orator by a mile. If you want a prepared statement, he is amazing. He struggles off the cuff, actually far worse than I would expect.

Trump is better speaking sincerely off the cuff. He has a command and sharpness, and a lot of humor. Trump's greatest strength as a politician has been speaking directly to the people. His success has certainly not been due to overwhelming media support.

We've touched on Tropic Thunder before, and how it could never be made today, but it just goes to show the total pussification of society at large. Why is the liberal lynch mob not calling for Robert Downey Esquire and Ben Stiller's heads? 10 years ago, very few rumblings happened about the blackface, and it became a global box office hit. Even those that I know that didn't particularly like the movie as a whole, like RDJ in the flick.

But let's keep being whiny pussies liberals, it's a great look. Especially on Halloween.

He just beat out like a dozen establishment Republicans to win that party's nomination, and then upset Clinton, who everyone had written into history in permanent ink. Clearly dumb.

It's Always Sunny has done blackface in the last few years with no outrage. You get how comedy works, right?

Not so much. I am talking about a set-up where a dumb character is "schooled" on blackface to make it into a social message. Like it is really about denouncing it, not playing it straight.
