It is now so bad that I am almost, almost sorry for the speakers who are trying to rouse a non existent crowd. Fortunately the empty,repetitive, banal rhetoric quickly extinguishes any sympathy.
They have written their speeches and by God they are going to deliver them regardless of the response. It is pitiful.
“It is pitiful’’. Isn’t it? Have you noticed how many of these speakers, especially the women, have these shrieking ,high-pitched, monotonous voices? I can only take thirty seconds at most of that and then my ears hurt.
