I do believe most of his speeches should be done this way. It makes if sound so reasonable. It just may get through this elitist heads, they so worldly you know.

It actually did do a good job at using his words, and making it sound very common and reasonable which most of the people who have listened do hear anyway. Some do not. Why not do this for the others who do not, they are not listening but this could get through there block.
Sorry I got a headache

These are the times that tries men's and
women's souls!

May we come though it victorious!

not typical.. unless one is up in Hampstead, Richmond, in Chelsea or up near around Oxfordshire.. then one talks most awfully.. awfully.. posh most indeed. I only speak posh like that if I'm making a phone call to some 'offical.'

Someone should voice over an 'apples and pears' dialect-now THAT would be funny.

The whole body politic thing is theatre anyway so hell-someone go for it-Russian accent,Scots,Swedish,Italian(THAT fits the 'connections'),American South hill billy,etc.

Trump's voice is too high-pitched. The voice-over is a beautiful deep voice. If Trump could just learn to speak further back in his mouth, it would be easier to listen to.

The face is fine. The hand motions are great. The voice is not up to par. It's very useful to know something specific that can be improved.

Off topic...but since we have the attention of some Brits....I watch a lot of fishing videos from the UK...I was curious about something.

Some of the folks when they pronounce "water"....they completely leave the "t" out and pronounce it "wah-er"...where is that accent from?

Trump speaks like he could be from New Orleans. He would fit right in. In fact, Trump reminds me of New Orleanians of the WW II generation. Tough, honest, stand up men. Old school, in a school which never should have changed.

He does not have an accent from Boston. He would have to have earned it. Pay attention to where the best schools and best hospitals are located.

It is always good to pay attention, even when you aren't from Boston.

He reminds me of a man I used to work for who is from Boston. New York city and Boston are very similar especially when you factor in the attitude too.

I love Trump's accent. I think NYers can pick out which region of NY you are from, to non NYers it all sort of sounds the same. But honestly he just sounds like an educated NY with a tinge of an accent.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 41691558


Color me in pettiness then- Trumps style of speaking makes it difficult for me to listen to him. With that said, I'm a southerner who grew up close enough to have Appalachian influence in my accent. I learned very quickly that people will judge how you present yourself (accent & appearance) before listening to the content of what you say, therefore if you want the quality of your message to come through then you make adjustments. (And FYI- not a Dem and definitely NOT a Hill supporter!)
 Quoting: ThereRMeds4That


I've watched you post throughout the years and your message is colored by your past posts for me. The same holds true with an accent. Those of us from the east coast and thereabouts actually like his accent and we know he means business by the way he speaks to us.

Oh, I love it!

Yes, Truth, the accent does sound harsh to some ears. My kids think he sounds like a mobster,,lol. Too many Godfather movies I guess.

But they would sound more like Trey Gowdy while denying having any accent at all.

Trump's accent should help him carry the State of New York. At least, I hope so.

I just want him to be elected so badly, I don't care how he sounds. Sounds fine to me. I certainly can listen to him all day long.


Music to my ears.
