On Saturday, Donald gave one of those speeches.
You know, the ones where he realises the sycophantic crowd are lapping it up, and the impersonations and funny voices from inside his head come out to play.
His speech took place at the annual Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) event, where he has appeared for the past three years.
This time around he really went off script, speaking for more than two hours, with the crowd losing a little steam towards the end.
At one stage, Trump railed at the “mainstream media”, calling them “fake news” for reporting that people left his speeches early, whilst people left his speech early at the very same time.
We need to start with his entrance, though, which is about as ‘lowest common denominator’ as you can get:
Apparently, the flag is considering laying charges.
As we mentioned, the full speech ran over two hours, but this compilation below touches on most of the bizarre moments.
Sit through the full video because you won’t be disappointed:
Topped off with the ‘USA! USA! USA’ chanting at the end. Wow, what a rollercoaster.
Perhaps the most amazing part is that his supporters, and propaganda machine Fox News, will still say, with a straight face, that this man is the greatest president of modern times.
No, he’s losing it.
To finish, here’s Don Jr., who spoke as part of a panel in the build-up to his father taking the stage.
Yeah, give those babies guns, Don Jr.!
