Donald Trump says he'll write inauguration speech himself



PALM BEACH, Fla. -- President-elect Donald Trump is telling visitors to his Florida club that he plans to write his inaugural address himself and is drawing inspiration from Presidents Ronald Reagan and John F. Kennedy.

That’s according to a person who has spoken with Trump at Mar-a-Lago, the South Florida club where he is spending the holidays.

Trump has told visitors that Reagan had “incredible style.” He has also noted the upcoming 100th anniversary of Kennedy’s birth.

The president-elect is also spending some his time in Florida focusing on veterans’ health issues and has told visitors he plans to make that a priority in his administration.

The person who spoke with Trump insisted on anonymity in order to disclose private conversations.

May it be the best speech since William Henry Harrison.

I was kind of hoping for a speech along Washington's Second Inaugural, 130 words. Trump could do that in 2 or 3 tweets.

Sorry Emjay, I'm too burned out on those, I'm at the point where I remember an episode from the opening scene. I do like the one where the corrupt business owner used his employees' pension to buy a race horse.

It's a work day for me, so Trump can take as long as he wants.

Of course he will, and it is going to be YUGE! So good, so good, really, very, very, good. It's going to be a speech that is so good, you will get tired of how good it is. So good. Really, really, good. The best speech ever.

He could be in charge of the streaming illustrations accompanying the speech.  Yeah, that could work.

I doubt it.

His specialty is incoherent run-on sentences.

This might be the most boring, long, superficial speech ever given by a President.

Needless to say, I won't be in the TV audience.......

Character still matters.  It always matters.

I wear a mask as an exercise in liberty and love for others.  To see it as an infringement of liberty is to entirely miss the point.  Be kind.

Use the time God is giving us to seek His will and feel His presence.
