His off the cuff remarks come off far better than some of his prepared speeches. Although he still lacks the eloquence of an Obama, or even Bush for that matter, he's honing his craft and sounds more presidential each time I hear him. Mind you, sounding presidential wasn't a decider for me when I pulled that lever.

it's his ability to be human that is the appeal....
unscripted, he's as alpha as they come......
and the real beauty is he continues to back up his words in consistent manner....
Trump was in good form there... problem was all the background noise that nearly — but not quite — drowned out his voice. Kinda metaphorical with Trump and the MSM every day for past 3 years.

which works in his favor.....
it's too funny how people don't understand the Geppetto principle.....
I like that right away trump mentions that they're looking at twice a year reporting vs quarterly (2x vs 4x) noting we've been too- short-term focused at the expense of longer-term vision, which we have badly needed in this country for a long, long time. I don't know exactly how they would do that and make it stick as the new normal, or what they would need to mandate, but I think that change would be verrry good for American interests, workers, business owners, shareholders and all. A few accou8ntants and brokers might get a bit pissed, but the good ones will shine as they will be able to make that change work for them at the expense of their lesser peers. Also same goes for lawyers. Well, what can you say about that? Three bad.

not a fan....but I understand the posit....
he's looking at less impact relative to short term releasing of numbers....
the numbers will always play out and be revised upward/downward as req'd.....
it's a fight not worth getting into.....
