I watched the whole thing with nominal amounts of “fast forwarding”. Trump came out after the first hour of his warm-up. He spoke a little bit and it was much of what you would expect. Then there were three “questions”, all of which were from guests that had been selected in advance. One was a gold star family that demanded a congressional hearing on the circumstances of their son’s death, which they stated was part of the largest single loss of life event in Afghanistan. Trump promised there would be one within a week of being elected but not within 1 day because he had already promised too many things would be fixed on day 1. In the midst of the 3 questions, two people passed out - literally back to back. Many attendees complained of the heat inside. Biden’s econcomy was blamed as the reason the venue operator could not afford to air condition it. Governor Noem, who served as Trump’s handler for the entirety of the event, shouted “Kamala sucks” to back up Trump’s statement. She also purposefully mispronounces her name, presumably because she is a Trump bootlicker. After the 2nd person was helped, Trump decided it was time for (more of the same) music, which they had also played while the two attendees were given medical aid. It was just a different rendition of the same song, as Trump’s team didn’t sufficiently please him with the version that lacked vocals. From then on it was more music and Trump swaying. Throughout the medical interventions, Trump insisted they would extend the event to take questions, but that wasn’t the case. As a result it appeared that many people stuck through the music portion expecting that he would take more questions, but he didn’t. Trump spoke for about 30 minutes total, which is basically a record minimum of minutes that he makes his people endure his dog shit excuses for speeches.
