These are great.
Not live. All cobbled together and this is still the “best” take they got.
And my god, that breathing is maddening! https://t.co/v64nqkWIaU

It’s the slur and the open Bible that he never even glances at for me. https://t.co/lMdW4ElG9I

Trump reads from the Bible like he’s submitting a bad audition for a movie. He’s not trying to tell you the story, he’s just reading words….and he’s not even doing that well. There’s no emotional investment from him in doing this and it’s very obvious. https://t.co/4KdSVILJKI

For a prerecorded address, the amount of visible editing is astonishing.
The pacing is off, the read‑through is shaky, and the whole thing feels stitched together in post‑production.
If this is the polished version, imagine the raw footage.— 🌊Ty Hall🌊 (@VET_TYHALL) May 17, 2026
