Only been 4 days since the last one.

Will he say that the Coastguard supports him?

Just watching. Can't look away.

THE BABYSITTER, WHO IS PAUL RYAN: I don't know if the kids ate the Oreos. I won't hazard any guesses. They certainly have that capability

Orlantina No but he'll remind them of his bigly victory and that the Dems are sore losers. Probably more than once.

He's not talking about the money he's saving. But he is.

His commencement speech appears to be a rally speech. This is not a commencement speech.

Trump at US Coast Guard Academy: "I won't talk about how much I saved you on the F-35 fighter jet."

And I won't tweet about the fact that the Coast Guard doesn't use the F-35

The SWAMP Act is the best name. So beautiful.

"Leaders attending the NATO and G7 summits at the tail end of Trump's trip have been told by organizers to keep their presentations brief -- a request made with Trump's short attention span in mind"

Tough titty.

These are international meetings of equals, not tribute-offerings to a god-king or begging audiences with an emperor. Nor are they daycare.

If the USA chooses to send along a man who isn't up to the job, that's its look out. Hard cheese.

Sorry.

Perking - I fully agree. Be up to the job or send someone who is. The world should not have to dumb-down to meet his expectations.

Is he STILL talking at that commencement address?? Jeez.

Okay, I've waited a long time to mention this as it's kinda petty. But... I really can't WATCH him speak. The way he shifts back and forth, raising the shoulders, tilting the neck, it's weird. If you watch other high ranking officials, NONE of them do that. It's so distracting that I find it annoying.

It's like he's trying to "drive" the podium/lectern - which then makes me think of Melissa McCarthy's Angry Spice. haha

I'm releasing an unprecedented joint report debunking @realDonaldTrump’s bogus claims on #sanctuarycities. Read it: on.ny.gov/2qwPrHH pic.twitter.com/tKcRglILAY

Let me be clear: Communities are lawfully permitted to limit their participation in federal civil immigration enforcement.

The border wall... bloody hell he's still banging on about it. Beautiful tax cuts too.

I'm sure he has.

(Surely, by the way, I didn't see reference to those benighted planes up above, Ginger? )

Apparently no politician has ever been treated as badly as Trump.

Straight from Mango Mussolini's mouth.

And he calls Democrats snowflakes??!!

Ginger, was about to post the same quotes from his coastguards speech. CNN version, though! No politician in history has been treated worse - but then, no politician has behaved worse, either

And to say that, not only can I not watch the man speak, I cannot listen to him at all, his voice and intonations (and most probably the sheer idiocy of what he is saying most of the time) make me switch off immediately.

Breaking: Senate Intelligence Committee asks FBI for Comey memos and invites Comey to testify

Yay! Do they suggest a date?

I can't watch him either, Ginger. I just sit there, cringing so hard it's like my spine is folding in on itself...

Not to continually compare but I remember watching Obama speak and just being captivated. He is intelligent and eloquent and, yes a lot of his speeches were written by his writers, nonetheless he could hold an entire room. I'm sure for Scrotus, people are either told to be there or just want to watch the car crash so they can say they did.. I can't imagine many at the official functions are choosing to be there.

I don't know - I just pity the coastguard right now
