Aside from his ignorance and lack of preparation, d'ja notice how unenthusiastic he is when he's not talking absolute crap about himself?

Yeah, yeah, I gotta say stuff about preserving parks and how goodly they are, bless America, but where am I in all this? Nowhere - that's where.

Exactly. When Trump reads from a script he sounds like someone who is being punished and forced to read something out loud.

My guess is that his staff who typed the speech wanted to avoid the very real possibility that he would say 'Yose Mite' (rhymes with Marmite) and, in order to get something approaching the proper pronunciation gave him a phonetic rendering 'Yo SEMitee' or something like that in parentheses.

[ s] I'm sure Obama's guys did that all the time. Maybe they had to give him the occasional reminder that 'Donald Trump' is not pronounced 'Igno Rant Fuck Ing ASS Hole' or somesuch. [/s]
