    Assuming symtandard sheet size, his prepared text is in 20pt font size.

    Just pointing that out to anyone curious about his eye sight and/or literacy.

      That’s smaller than I print for notes and I can see just well enough to legally drive without issues (plus unlike trump, I actually know how to)

      I don’t think that really tells anything. For public speaking, having good readable notes is essential. Honestly, I’m surprised it’s not all 100pt sharpie.

      Yeah it’s been known for years he can’t see shit. But he is too vain to wear glasses in public. He does wear them in private, there are some pics out there. Which is pretty normal for someone his age.

      This is part of why his speeches are always so weird and fucked up. He misreads because he needs his glasses and then makes shit up to try and cover for it. The speech prepared is usually evil and fucked up in different ways, but at least coherent. Then when Trump tries to read them a lot of nonsense comes out.

      I think that’s pretty standard for public speaking. I’ve been printing stuff that large since highschool with decent eyesight. You just print as large as you can while keeping it all on one sheet
