President Donald Trump gave a speech at the United Nations General Assembly in New York City on Sept. 23, and a close-up photograph of his speech shared on Threads and X revealed that much of it was written in large font an all-caps format.
Trump usually posts in all-caps while ranting and raving about people or topics on social media, and folks had a good time joking about the massive blown-up letters in his speech.
A caption with the post of the speech read, “a page of Trump’s UN speech, as captured by Getty.”
The speech read in part, “Under my leadership, ENERGY costs are down, GASOLINE prices are down, GROCERY prices are down, MORTGAGE RATES are down, and inflation has been DEFEATED.” Incidentally, grocery prices are up under Trump’s presidency, not down.
Per usual, Trump showed his bad manners as he insulted darn near everyone during his hour-long speech.
According to CBS News, he said, “What is the purpose of the United Nations?”
According to CNN, while talking about migration, Trump said, “I’m really good at this stuff. Your countries are going to hell.”
He also denied climate change and said energy initiatives were “the greatest con job ever perpetrated on the world.”
“All of these predictions made by the United Nations and many others, often for bad reasons, were wrong,” he added, despite the fact that most scientists agree about climate change. “They were made by stupid people.”
Social media users weighed in online, and what the ones who found the post showing the binder Trump was reading from seemed to find stupid was the size of the letters printed on the pages.
“That has to be like #9 font,” noted one. “Trump is blind!!!”
This man is f**king blind. That font size is WILD,” wrote another .”He’s blind too,” another echoed. “It’s funny, I expected it to be written in crayon,” joked one X user.
Another user aptly noted the style in which the speech was written. “How did they manage to encapsulate the way he speaks into text so well?”
“Readers’ Digest large print edition,” cackled another. “OMG it looks like one of his Truth Social rants,” noted another user.
Other people zeroed in on what looked like a “pill” sitting next to his binder.
“Do you see the pill?” one critic asked, while another person questioned, “What’s that pill for?” A third commenter joked, “Is that just a Tylenol?” Likely referencing his recent press conference, suggesting Tylenol is linked to autism.
It’s not the first time eagle-eyed viewers have spotted something similar—during the U.S. Open, Trump was photographed with what appeared to be a pill or mint tucked between his teeth.
The online critique struck a deeper chord because it played into the long-running speculation about Trump’s health. The president, 79, has already faced scrutiny over reports of his medical condition, called chronic venous insufficiency, a circulation disorder that prevents veins in his lower legs from working properly.
