    I can not think of anything that means nothing more than this.

    He’s there to read some words, the words disappeared, he was unable to read them. How in the world are you imagining this to be anything at all?

    It shouldn’t be news if this happens to anyone, including the president. This is not news. This is a tech malfunction.

          I dunno, stuff? And junk like that? 🤷

          Your original comment made it sound like words are inherently inconsequential, which couldn’t be further from the truth.

            Gotcha. I am not sharing the same reality or maybe not discussing the same story as you. Understood.
