There's nothing unusual in the way he's speaking. I've been to two rally's, one I watched from inside and the other on a large screen outside. I've also watched parts of his rally's as shown in tidbits on Fox when they are in process. It's not unusual he stops himself when beginning a subject matter then references back on it before proceeding with what he was going to say. Those rally's are held later in the day after being actively engaged all day long, speaking for hours on end, anybody's voice would be harsh and dry. Yes he can just meander off into just about any topic but he's doing this stuff unscripted and the plain fact of the matter is that most people attending those rally's don't follow politics in any regular course of their day so they don't really care what he talks about more so than they care that he doesn't stand up there making false promises. For those of us who like to be a bit more intellectually challenged it can drive one a bit crazy...but that's okay as he also drives the establishment crazy and that sir is priceless.
