Adderall is trending- looks like many people watched #TrumpSpeech— (((DeanObeidallah))) (@DeanObeidallah) January 8, 2020
I don’t say this to score political points (this moment is too serious for that) but...Trump did not sound well while making that speech. Something was very off.— Brian Klaas (@brianklaas) January 8, 2020
Would be pretty worrying if he showed any of the other telltale signs like narcissism, attacking the press, scapegoating minorities, appointing his children and cronies to senior positions, lying, spreading disinformation, politicizing rule of law, or engaging in corruption, huh? https://t.co/P9Uki3umE1— Brian Klaas (@brianklaas) January 8, 2020
This is what the "strongman kitsch" looked like, from photographer David Hume Kennerly:
You know, aside from my usual deranged partisanship, I am just going to point out that there is no one in this White House who can write a tight, forceful speech.— Tom Nichols (@RadioFreeTom) January 8, 2020
I don’t mean this in a mean or sarcastic way but he does not sound well— Rick Wilson (@TheRickWilson) January 8, 2020
No, I mean it. All kidding aside. That man is not well.— Rick Wilson (@TheRickWilson) January 8, 2020
Serious question: Is Trump drunk?— Scott Dworkin (@funder) January 8, 2020
He's wearing an extra layer of orange makeup, for protection against terrorists.— (((Katha Pollitt))) (@KathaPollitt) January 8, 2020
Look at his speech from today, and compare it with when he first took office. Trump mispronounced several words, and he was definitely slurring his words. https://t.co/8lzXFwK2Rv— Christopher Bouzy (@cbouzy) January 8, 2020
"Slurring," "Adderall" and #TrumpSpeech are trending. Sounds like it went really well.— Joan Walsh (@joanwalsh) January 8, 2020
Anyone who has the opportunity to talk frankly to a large public about the President’s clear impairment and is not doing that will regret it later on, of that I am sure. https://t.co/L2dzHPOu1C— Ruth Ben-Ghiat (@ruthbenghiat) January 9, 2020

The public has a right to know what is physically wrong with Trump—the constant sniffing, the labored breathing, the slurring & mangled reading of words. This is not a superficial thing. This man holds immense power & should be questioned & examined for the safety of the nation.— Steven Beschloss (@StevenBeschloss) January 9, 2020
When you’re driving in a car, you want a safe & competent driver. When you’re flying in a plane, you want a safe & competent pilot. When in surgery, you want a safe & talented surgeon. So why oh why, in a powerful & lethal country, don’t you want a safe & competent president?— Steven Beschloss (@StevenBeschloss) January 9, 2020
