During his longwinded, two-hour speech at the Conservative Political Action Conference, Donald Trump trailed off several times. The president covered the criticisms he must have known would tickle his Republican audience; the alleged illegitimacy of the Russia investigation, a taunting impersonation of former Attorney General Jeff Sessions. However, Trump also used the performance to accuse Hollywood and the […]
