This is actually the most telling of all. Our current president can't be bothered to learn a simple 20 second toast for a foreign dignitary. Also, if it were given in a normal cadence of a practiced communicator, it would have taken half the time.stash wrote:Also looks like he had to read the toast.
“Ladies and Gentlemen,
please stand with me –
and raise your glasses –
as I propose a toast. -
To Her Majesty –
the Queen.
the vitality of the special relationship -
between our peoples -
and in the words of Shakespeare -
to this blessed plot -
this earth -
this realm -
this England -
to the Queen”
I'll give the gaff to him because the music started DURING the toast but since he's got his head in his notes, it has all the sincerity of a jr. high school speech class project.
