The former president repeatedly misspoke during a speech on Wednesday.

Speaking in Long Island on Wednesday, Donald Trump was as bombastic and boastful as ever—but also slurred his words on several occasions.

Trump stumbled over words like “migrants” and “Russia” and had trouble stringing sentences together. In another instance, Trump said he was “greater even than Elvis” because unlike the King, he doesn’t have a guitar—a riff that has increasingly featured in his speeches.

      Fear and being dumb are two different things. This person is experiencing fear and has every right to feel that way.

      Some people react to fear with words, some hide it and some get violent. Some of us do all three. No reason to pick on people because they express their fears with honest words instead of some of the alternatives.
