He is going to rehabilitate the youth, who are waving union jack flags for some reason, into teachers and technicians.

He's desperately trying to come across the collection of random strung-together words that will open the portal that will allow him to return to the dimension of pure gibbering chaos he originated from.

Has he declared the US to be responsible for spiking Benghazi's water with hallicinogenic flouride or something yet to spark off riots?

This just conjured up a mental image of him staring at some smudged writing on his hand and going "gently caress! I knew I should have written down the return code on paper."

It'll stop when one of his bodyguards just says: "gently caress it, I can't listen to any more" and shoots him on live TV.

He's actually not insane and it's all just a big distraction to keep the world's eyes on him while.... well some kind of evil James Bond villain scheme I guess. Maybe deploying a giant plane crushing fist.

Either way, we're all falling for it.

I'm noticing long pauses where he's fiddling around with something, and a second voice.
I'm guessing he's prerecorded the speech, and is using it as a cheat sheet, or something.
Whatever it is that he's doing, it's just poor form.

The Guardian posted:

He says satellite channels are claiming he has called for arrests of the rebels – I haven't, he says. It sounds as though he is responding to coverage of the first part of his speech.

I'm not listening live (at work right now) - but I think he's going to speak perpetually until he dies.
