    It’ll be like his campaign speech where he just rambled on incoherently for a while, slow-danced by himself for a half-hour, then maybe ramble on a little more. That’s what makes it so “long.”

          Is there any evidence of this? I mean, he is an unprecedented crook in the office, but he’s also a cult leader.

            On January 5, 2021, the day before the Washington, D.C., protest that led to the January 6 U.S. Capitol attack, Kirk wrote on Twitter that Turning Point Action and Students for Trump were sending more than 80 “buses of patriots to D.C. to fight for this president”.[36][37] A spokesman for Turning Point said that the groups ended up sending seven buses with 350 students.[36][38] In the lead-up to the storming, Kirk said he was “getting 500 emails a minute calling for a civil war”.[39] Publix heiress Julie Fancelli gave Kirk’s organizations $1.25 million to fund the buses to the January 6 event. Kirk also paid $60,000 for Kimberly Guilfoyle to speak at the rally.[40]

            At least one of the promoters can’t lol

        Reminds me of the vids where people would clap for Stalin/Hitler for as long as they could until the dictators told them to stop. People were indoctrinated by fear.

      Seems like he just rambles in all of his rally speeches. Not that I’ve seen one in its entirety.
