@ianbremmer Maybe, though I haven't really seen many critiquing the speech as some poor act of oratory as opposed to contesting the claims. Personally, I really don't give a shit about these speeches because they're only political theater and have no bearing on anything real or substantive. — PolitiTweet.org

@ianbremmer Right. I agree that - as is true of campaign rhetoric and thinks like election-year party platforms - events like these tell us what the parties believe voters want to hear. But they don't tell us much or even anything about what these leaders will actually do. — PolitiTweet.org
