Over the weekend, Trump’s supposedly picture-perfect trip to NASCAR didn’t exactly go according to plan.
After a grand entrance in which Trump used his taxpayer-funded plane and limo to do a mini-campaign rally, the President had a hard time reading his own words.
And they weren’t even that difficult to remember!
Trump really couldn’t recite these cliches without reading them in a painful manner? pic.twitter.com/D0SSWhVMtM

It got so bad that Fox Sports cut from Trump’s speech while he droned on in the background which prompted one Twitter to accuse the network of being “communists.” (The tweet has since been deleted.)

Dawn of Truth wasn’t the only MAGA fan to be offended by Trump’s Fox Sports coverage:

FOX seriously isn’t showing Trump’s speech rn. We can hear him in the background.

Why is Fox Sports not covering @realDonaldTrump speech at the #DaytonaDay ?🤔 @FoxNews is.

URGENT:
Does anyone have footage of Trump actually taking the lap?
FOX cut away.
Slightly annoying

Its so weird that Fox has Trump giving a speech in the background and is completely ignoring it. Surprising, but the politics out of sports crowd should be pleased. #DAYTONA500

Fox sports isn’t showing @realDonaldTrump remarks at #Daytona500 …but @FoxNews is.
Guess that about sums it up…

At one point, Fox even cut away from Trump and aired a Bloomberg ad slamming him. Ouch!
