Seems the breathless reporting that Donald Trump was a changed man who would give a different kind of speech at the Republican National Convention might have been a tad premature. Because after more than an hour of mostly reading from the teleprompter, Trump had to let it out.
Trump has taken to talking about Hannibal Lecter on the campaign trail, and at his acceptance speech, he just couldn’t resist.
“Has anyone seen ‘Silence of the Lambs’?” Trump asked. “The late, great Hannibal Lecter. He’d love to have you for dinner.”
Why talk about the “great” fictional cannibal? Why not! He’s Trump. He says things that don’t make sense all the time. And despite the best efforts of his handlers and the RNC, despite the attempt to write a perfectly boring speech that wouldn’t show the country what Trump is really like, given enough time in front of a cheering crowd, Trump can’t help but let them know there’s nothing normal about him.
