    Oh for the love of God not every single thing is a fuckin dog whistle.

    Obamas speech pattern and cadence was intentional. It gave added emphasis where he wanted it. He was an elegant orator that put George Bush, Trump, Biden and honestly most other speakers to shame.

    Not many people could be identified by their speech pacing alone. Obama and Christopher Walken are two I can think of off the top of my head.

    Fuck the people who talked shit about Obamas pausing. I would kill to have a world leader who spoke so clearly and intentionally again.

    After the first 4 years of “I’m just making shit up as I go” Trump and the last 4 years of gibberish Joe I am not looking forward to the next 4 years of “I’m still making shit up as I go, but now with some dementia sprinkled in there” Trump.
