"Well, it wasn't the content. I thought the content was just standard fare that we've become accustomed to. But it was the way it was delivered. It was delivered with a manic cadence, almost a frantic cadence. It was as if you felt like you were listening to a podcast on 2x. And that kind of manic delivery was very, very disturbing. Very pressurized speech."
"And as the address went on, his cadence of his remarks became quicker. And we've never seen the president like that. He seemed almost frantic. And it was disturbing to watch. It was disturbing because he's the commander-in -chief. He's not just the head of the government. He's the commander in chief of the greatest armed forces this world has ever seen. And it was disturbing to see him with such an almost uncontrolled cadence."
The president delivered a nearly 20-minute White House address that reused familiar talking points on the economy and immigration while disparaging his predecessor. The speech featured a loud, halting delivery with an increasingly rapid, manic cadence that prompted observers to question whether something new was wrong. The delivery became more pressurized and quicker as the address progressed, giving an impression of near-frantic speech. The tone and apparent loss of control in cadence generated worry about the president's health and his fitness to serve as commander-in-chief.
