Trump’s ‘Boring’ 92-Minute Acceptance Speech Quite Literally Put RNC Attendees To Sleep

Though he and his staffers had touted it all week as a message of “unity,” convicted felon Donald Trump used his acceptance speech Thursday evening to the Republican National Convention to traffic in conspiracy theories, lies, and bizarre references to pop culture figures such as Hannibal Lecter while also claiming he had the imprimatur and protection of God himself.

And that was just the first 30 minutes!

The speech lasted for 92 (!) minutes, by which time most of the delegates in the convention hall were yawning, rubbing their eyes, and silently praying for the tirade to end.

Take a look:

Thrilling, huh? When even your most ardent supporters can’t manage to keep their eyes open, it’s clear you’re a tiresome bore who desperately needs to learn the meaning of the word “editing.”

Trump’s seemingly endless speech led to lots of commentary on social media, where many noted that Donald had the perfect opportunity to prove he had changed since being shot last weekend in Pennsylvania, but only managed to reinforce his image as a long-winded bully who wants to destroy the American republic for his own aggrandizement.

What will Trump do for an encore? Read the New York telephone book aloud while his acolytes pray over him?
