Republican candidate arrived late to Nashville speech looking flushed and exhausted to rant about Democrats, the Department of Education, the Capitol riot and the ā€˜silencingā€™ of religious groups

Donald Trump appeared on stage more than 90 minutes late in Nashville, Tennessee, on Thursday night, where he delivered a speech that was as wild as it was incoherent.

The Republican presidential front-runner appeared flushed and visibly exhausted as he arrived to address the National Religious Broadcastersā€™ (NRB) International Christian Media Convention, tripping over simple words like ā€œevangelicalā€ during an address littered with verbal miscues and false claims.

At various points, Mr Trump declared that he had made ā€œIsraelā€ the capital of Israel during his presidency (presumably confusing the decision to move its US embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem), said that he planned to close down the Department of Education and praised the Capitol rioters, whom he again characterised as political prisoners and referred to as ā€œthe J6 hostagesā€, for their ā€œtremendous spiritā€.

    over the last near-decade I played with this for a while, and, really, there is no ā€œbestā€ because it depends on whatever may hurt him most which fluctuates depending on the moment. and whatā€™s funny at the time. likeā€¦ I almost get the appeal of him because I almost have fun hating him.
