    I have all of Google blocked and my online traffic goes halfway across the planet so I rarely watch videos. But when I read even quotes of him talking I can’t make it all the way through. The level of patience needed to make it through that withering, meandering KFC coated throaty voice of his is something I’ll never have.

      I truly feel for the translators who have to interpret his utterances. I read the English version and it’s like hearing a book report from a kid who just skimmed the cover and is dropping nouns they recognized in between completely unrelated but extremely rude, false, or narcissistic statements.

        I’m multilingual myself and I really couldn’t imagine translating half of his sentences. And imagine doing it in a language where the word order is different so you’re caught waiting for the sentence to end but it just never does.
