Maybe he bit his tongue while yelling incoherently at the podium.
Now it's all swollen and doctors can't treat it because he won't stop talking long enough for them to get a look at it.
Second post: I looked up a short clip and I didn't think it was all that pronounced. But maybe it also was more obvious with more exposure. I legit have a lisp, so I have a pretty developed idea about what that sounds like. I think mine is more prominent, or at least was before I learned to subdue it. It's wild when I drink.
I have to say, sorry to you and others like you for being unhinged about it yesterday. I think other commenter was right: we didn’t really know what to call it. I switched from slurring to lisp every other chat message.
But with that said, I do not think it was insignificant. In the beginning, it seemed like just some weird slip up sorta shit. By the end though, I could barely understand what he said sometimes. It got BAD.

Its fun he's like "venezuela is sending all their criminals here" meanwhile on his last day he protected 200,000 venezuelans from deportation.
The reality is that trump sanctions on venezuela lead to large amounts of immigration and locked down control for Maduro and now he's campaigning on another issue he's responsible for by lying about who is fleeing venezuela and why and proposing yet another crackdown on a marginalized group of people.
I thought he got shot on the 👂 ear not his tongue 👅. Although, that would have been perfect 😄. Maybe would have helped him win if he would just shut up.
