His illness was distracting the first time I heard him speak, but I don’t even notice it now. It is a literal joy to hear him speak.
Yes! I’ve discovered that it takes him three sentences to ‘rev up’ then bam! He’s off! Discard those first few words and what follows is pure gold!
That's the point tbh u get used to it
It’s almost like a biblical story, the man with a raspy voice who was listened to by all.
OMG yesssss. the first time I heard him I was annoyed. then after 10min (now, I have seeked out and watched over 100 hours of his clips), u get atuned to the frequency of his coarseness n understands.❤
Shame he is still an anti-gun nutjob.
The interviewer is so wrong: there's no conspiracy theorist here, just a rare and courageous truth-teller with genuine moral integrity. He has my vote.
Yup he’s totally a conspiracy-theorist! He’s as dangerous as Trump
LMFAO 🤪
not everything he says are true.. specially the wifi sickness thing.. but i know he means well and i like his energy and commitment to the environment and the future..
He himself admits to being a conspiracy theorist. Conspiracy theorist doesn’t mean incorrect, you have only been conditioned to think that like a pavlov response
@@travixx07
Seems like you’re short on boosters. 🤡
As someone who suffers from spasmodic dysphonia since childhood, I have a tremendous amount of respect for him to continue with public speaking. It takes a lot of courage to face the ridicule and humiliation that goes along with this affliction.
now this is a democrat i would actually vote for.
I would only vote for him in the primary, many of his policies I disagree with, but his positions are closer to sanity than what today's Democrats policy positions are.
It's from his drug addiction days,as,a youth...
Wish I was American because he’d have my vote joes that old that he’s definitely a nonce
Likely Caused by a vax . He talks about this in another video.
I got vocal paresis from the flu one
As a person with Dystonia it is nice to see Bobby Kennedy Jr. finally address his condition.
God bless you
Sometimes a side effect of psych meds also. Poor man.
It's nice to see a president address their condition in general.
Yes but unfortunately he has swallowed conspiracy crackpot nonsense. Maybe that disorder that affected his voice also affected his brain.
@@ahalfsesameseedbun7472 He is not a president nor will he be.
I would never vote Democrat especially the behavior displayed by the swamp creatures in power. But I could stand behind this man.
then you’ve got to get over your party-vision it’s not how reality works, respectfully. you have to vote for a democrat to get this man in, to change things for the better.
You wouldn't be voting Democrat, you would be voting against evil.
LMFAO 🤪
Same
Same
Republican here voting for RFK. There’s something about him, he’s genuine. Sure his voice isn’t attractive but his ideas and voice are a breath of fresh air in this crazy political atmosphere.
Thank you! Be sure and change your registration if need be so that you can! 💪🇺🇸❤️
You can't vote in the Democrat primary. They won't let you.
Amen
His voice only slightly bothered me at first, but because of his genuine nature and the truth that we hear coming out I've grown to love listening to what he has to say.
Sure he's better than any Dem, but he's still a Dem. Never vote for him over a Rep.
THANK YOU NewsNation for finally addressing this which admittedly many people wonder about. I know I’ve often wondered what’s going on with his voice. It is an elephant in a room which many news outlets just ignore. Thank you for finally addressing this on a national level.
I mean, a quick google search could have told you a long time ago.
@@ringwormshermI'm too lazy for that
It requires exactly the same amount of effort as what you’re doing right now.
He left out the part where it came on following a flu shot. He's probably not allowed to say that but that's what did it
True. Thanks.
My former brother-law had this too. Mr. Kennedy does sound much better. It was very difficult to understand him before. So happy for him because he has much to say!
Brave man. He doesnt spread conspiracy. He opens discussion.
What ? RFK Jr said that the cia & mafia killed his uncle & dad
We all know an informed public is a dangerous public. Oh wait, it's only dangerous to those who would love for us to keep believing their lies.
@@thegreatchain7112 It’s pretty obvious some shady things were going on back then… The government wanted to be in Vietnam. JFK did not. RFK Sr was following in the same footsteps.
Omg…he IS a conspiracy theorist! I challenge you to take just ONE DAY to investigate this guy! He’s a Maga magat
Exactly, hes an open book who has his views aligned for the people.
It's no trouble to spend time listening to RFK Jr. because everything he has to say is worth while despite his spasmodic dystonia.
Spasmodic dysphonia.
Everything he says is golden.
I agree..this man can heal this government
I've listened to about 5 hours of him speaking, and I barely even notice it anymore. 🤷♂️🤘🇺🇲
@@michaellarry86 Same, I've been following his interviews for a few weeks, and have got so used to his voice that I don't notice it. If anything, it's made me a better listener.
If you listen to what Robert F Kennedy jr say's , it doesn't matter how raspy his voice really is. He's telling it the way it is!
what he says, and they all talk....a lot. then do NOTHING. Trump was the only one to get shit done. You poeple voted for biden and now youre gonna vote for this demon.
Absolutely., I agree. I believe chances are he is honest.
And Donald Trump is not telling it the way it is ???🤔
@@Eddie303 I dunno, at this point they are all liars, its prolly all a psyop lol.
It is a blessing in disguise because it makes people listen to him more intently.
Yes and he doesn't waffle because it's so much effort. All killer no filler!
No it just makes people turn off the tv
@@dillonblair6491 which in some cases is a blessing.
@@simonwright6163
I can't even argue that
I have to turn on CC. It's so grating 😢
I'm so glad that he didn't let that illness discourage him from running. He's very inspiring. It's refreshing to hear him speak so candidly. He's a real person with flaws, just like the rest of us. And he's definitely not a conspiracy theorist. He's speaking truth to power. That's what we need.
And now it's his super power! Everyone remembers this voice! Truly inspiring.
This guy looks like an alcoholic so I wouldnt be supprised if this was a smokers voice. He ain't going to win and not democratic any way. This is just a bit waste of time.
That is such a stupid expression. "speaking truth to power"
If I wasn't a republican he would have my vote. 👍
The term conspiracy theorist was invented by the CIA to dissuade people from questioning JFK’s assassination. Kind of odd for the host to use that term here. Was it a threat of some kind from a third party, or just an ignorant writer? Hard to tell.
Would rather have a president with a bad voice but a functioning mind rather than a president that has no mind and a voice that has no idea what he is saying.
You took the words right out of my mouth.
I would literally vote for a blueberry muffin before I help to re-elect that dude, not even kidding.
@@MuktiLuvAt least a blueberry muffin is somewhat nourishing. Biden destroys everything he touches.
“End of line”
That’s why we have Biden instead of trump who is senile
His voice is an advantage. It makes us listen more closely - and fortunately what he has to say is worth hearing.
My workmate loves him cos of his smoker voice 😂
Agree
It is courageous and generous of him to share this personal challenge. I pray he will be healed and regain the strength of his voice.
The best way to do this is support the dysphonia foundation so there can be more research done on treating and potentially curing these types of chronic conditions!
I'm voting for RFK jr.
With the help of the thousands watching, he'll have 19% of the Democratic vote. In a poll of all potential candidates if Biden out RFK gets 4% behind Newsom, Harris hell even Butigieg.
Sadly you won’t get the chance unless you’re voting in Democratic primaries.
ME TOO
Unfortunately the DNC will continue their BS and get the corpse Biden to be the nominee again. Sad times for our country
@@CaptainCataractsslet’s hope! Geez…like we need another nutter-butter
Does anybody else start feeling hopeful and happy when they read the unity expressed by people in these comments? I have never ever seen that in my lifetime and I’m over 60.
Absolutely feel the same
This guy is bringing people together
these people are not the majority of people lmao. You are 6 and you are still living in a bubble of social media
you're old and you've gotten soft.
Trump 2024 only!!!
He sure is the right person!🇨🇦👏
It’s funny how us Canadians follow the US election so closely because we know how much it will affect our country!
I noticed the difference in Bobby's voice, and just thought he was getting better. Didn't know about the surgery and so glad it help. LOVE BOBBY. Good luck from Australia xxx
Republican here. Will vote for RFK Jr.
I’m an independent but have almost always voted Red. Voting for him too, I think he’s the best presidential candidate we’ve had in years
Thank you!
Cool
I am switching my party to democrat just to get RFK in our whitehouse!!!!!
I did the same.
Thank you! 🙏
Okay MAGAts.
@@CaptainCataractss Pop a Midol Bozo your monthly TDS is showing
Thank you.
We need your guy's help because These DNC crooks will do just about anything and I'm a former Dem but no More and had no plans to support any dem ever again but RFK Jr is someone I can support because he's running as one I think more out of respect for his father's and Uncle's legacies.
I admire this man greatly! My mother has had this condition for years and it hasn't been easy for her, but it is who she is. The true character of a person far outweighs their physical abilities, and RFK Jr is a man of genuine moral integrity.
Well said
It doesn’t bother me at all to hear him talk. I enjoy listening to the truth raspy of not. It’s so refreshing. Thank you Mf. Kennedy. You are my hero.
RFK is an open book with set goals that people have been wanting for years. Protect this man at all costs
Protect at all costs.. what a dramatic overused meme🙄
@@Yet333 you love it,huh?
@@cxMLG “ I like trump but we need someone young and just as ruthless”. Your comment. I knew I was dealing with a moron.
❤ RFK JR.. He is our warrior.. His voice may be damaged but his tongue is a sword.. people if you listen you will see he speaks the truth.. which our government hates.. WE IN AMERICA NEED THIS MAN NOW... BE SAFE RFK. .. IT WOULD BE AN HONER TO HAVE YOU FOR OUR PRESIDENT...
Hell no he isn’t!
If I was American, I would be voting for RFK JR! Bobby is the most honest and humble man running for president!
Well said my friend!
Very well said!
i'm just worried if he gets elected, the kennedy assassination curse will return😟😢i hope he does 2 terms/8yrs👍🙏👌
This is the guy. He is running, we might not get a candidate like him in ages.
It's going to be Trump. Maybe Bobby will be VP.
what about bernie
For anyone with this condition to have someone so prominent with the same is a blessing. I’ve had it for 40 yrs. Most people are too embarrassed to mention it, others have never heard of it. Most people think you are just nervous which is incredibly annoying. I have treatment ever three months and the side effects are total voice loss for a few weeks. Finally when people ask if I have laryngitis or if I’ve been burning the candle at both booths I can say no, I have what JFK jnr has!
His voice has really grown on me. It makes you listen to the words more and the truths he speaks are exactly what the world needs if we want to have a future that is worth living. And he comes across as a very warm and sincere man. I would vote for him in a heartbeat.
That's exactly how I feel! His voice makes me pay attention more to what he's saying, and god, I learn so much everytime. Love him and pray for him 🙏
I think he is the real deal.
Bro 🤣all for his voice is wild asf don’t get fooled twice
RFK Jr. is exactly what our country needs. We need the Kennedys to save our country. I am a Kennedy Democrat. My family and all of my friends love the Kennedys. They are true Democrats. Not like the Socialist idiots we have in control of our country now.
Only trump can save this country, but RFK jr isn't too bad.
JFK raped a 19 year old intern. Ted Kennedy killed a woman. RFK, JR's wife killed herself in 2012 because of RFK's 24 affairs during their marriage. We definitely don't need any more Kennedys.
Exactly what America needs, another democrat.
He doesn't have the Kennedy family support. They think he's cray cray too.
Exactly! These woke lunatic bullies do NOT represent true Democrats!
Love this man
We don’t have to share all of the same views. Thanks for just being great
I love how the announcer impatiently tries to cut him off just while he is telling us about his surgery. So rude. But of course plenty of time for her to perform her introduction so she can hear her own voice.
I know right? I had to keep skipping. She says “tonight is about you. It is your chance to hear directly from Kennedy”. Nearly half this short was about her!
What a brave and humble person RFK Jr is. The content of his talks far out way any impediment to understanding what he says, to the pint that the sound of his voice is a non-issue. Much respect and admiration for this man.
The man with the harsh voice has the most to say about this country. God bless this man and God bless those reading this ❤🙏
Thanks
I started reading the bible recently and was shocked when I read that Moses had trouble speaking. A couple of weeks later, I start seeing RFK Jr in my feed.
They say it now but once they get into the white house you don't hear another word.
@@eileenmc4746😢😷🎉😅😅😆😂😇😢🎉😙😮😢🤢🤗😅😅🤢☺️😅🤮😇😚🎉😇🤢🤕🤥🤢
Sadly, people nowadays have such short attention spans, where first impressions matter so much that they might discredit a voice like RFK Jr. quickly due to its “cosmetic” feel… his biggest challenge will actually be to get people to listen to him in long format, even with this clear disadvantage.
Like most people who have to struggle with something, I think it gives him character
It doesn't matter how your voice is. It is what you're saying that matters. I'm very patient listening to somebody that has something truthful and sincere to say.
So sad that all you people were led like sheep by the mainstream media. I love RFK, but he isn't saying anything that Trump hasn't said for the last several years. You people were just too blinded by the media to listen.
News Nation is a Far Right Wing Media who will do and say anything to help Trump win in 2024.
Lots of Trump Trolls here.
His work for The Children’s Defense speaks volumes on his actions for justice.
Ditto, and he says alot and believes it in his soul.
He's a politician. They're all liars. They're good at telling you exactly what you watch to hear .
The most compassionate and understanding man on the political stage today.
@@CaptainCataractss Uh....okay
@@CaptainCataractssRight? Another cray cray conspiracy-theorist
@@Butterflies-are-freeAnother Corporate Bot.
I have autism spectrum disorder, and it has made communication and public speaking the most difficult challenge for me. But I found a way to break through the stigma, the fear, the doubt in myself, and the idea that I couldn't achieve anything, and I have no gotten an associate's degree, a bachelor's degree, and on my way to getting a master's degree, all in communication studies. So, when I hear someone openly tell their story of some form of physical or neurological disorder that they have been diagnosed with, and have overcome, I have an enormous amount of respect for them, because they are a shining beacon of what is possible. So, Robert, if you ever get the chance to read this comment, I just want you to know that you are a marvel, and you inspire me. Thank you.
Well as someone with autism who is still struggling with communication you’re an inspiration man
this guy is huge inspiration I have a speech problem and the psychological trauma that causes me left me with PTSD I don't have the guts to talk to anymore and he is talking to media crowds politicians etc. for decades I would be blessed if I could have half of his confidence
God bless you 🌞🌞🌞🌞
He got my vote! I can listen to him for hours with all his knowledge and honesty.
This man has a lot of important things to say, I hope he’s able to break through the mainstream media censorship and get his message out
Most of which are horsecrap
The man has a serious illness issue.
It does get worst. do the research. We have a guy in the WH that has no brain... I've seen enough of Presidents that have illnesses . Find a healthy candidate.
Everything he's saying is exactly what Trump has been saying for years.
@@kmac265partly yes but Trump never been on podcasts and it means a lot
@@kmac265 Except for his statements on the evils of the Industrial Medical Industry, I don't remember Trump ever addressing that until lately
Respect for him for being wiling to run, despite his voice situation. Most people would not have the courage to run with that issue.
Bold, courageous man, and he’s not interested in fleecing the country to his personal profit the way, the majority of Republicans and Democrats are. I would vote for him in a heartbeat.
He’s got my vote, best candidate for POTUS in a long long time IMO. Why? Authenticity!!
He seems to be polling very strongly. He has some demons and skeletons but I think he's dealt with them.
@@LittleStar261 he must have some, everybody does, that's already a huge contrast from the others who have full-blown haunted cemeteries.
I feel so sorry. Imagine having a bad ass voice, and being a public speaker, and then losing it all at a young age in your 40s. Must have been devastating.
well maybe they can cure it soon its not impossible
Worse is having a spouse CHEATING on you (frequently) and endeavoring to alienate your children from you ... ultimately driving you to suicide. JFK Jr. is a bad actor, and anti-tax nut.
You get used to listening to it tbh
Not enough awareness for cure very rare
I’m no democrat, but RFK Jr is the future of the party.
I can guarantee you he is not. The left rejects him more than the right.
Thats probably why you’re not a Democrat.
If the party wants to survive and not eat itself alive, yes. Honestly, I’ve mostly voted Republican. But I legit think I’m going to vote for him
@@Ithaca-vv5dy 🤔😣😖😤You're talking about the kooks in the Republican party, right??? RFK jr. is a non-factor for 2024 and is a distraction for us Conservatives.. WE NEED A SOLID NOMINEE OURSELVES, so can we focus on THAT, instead of trying to find a TROLL, a Ross Perot type figure as fly in their ointment!!! Nixon started our downfall and Chimpy really set us on a path of steady decline. Mr.Trump just cemented us as non-serious people - that will ignore EVERYTHING we have been trumpeting as our Party Values. Honesty, Integrity, Family Values, Fiscal & Efficient Govt, Adapting/Adopting Science & Tech as we progress, Basic Human Decency, Leadership by Example. et al. I refuse to make excuses for someone accused of multiple Rapes, Payoffs to Prostitutes, Sexual Assault, Fraud, Bigotry and just living a Vulgar Insecure existence, daily.. and encouraging others to overthrow the Govt. against the wishes of millions of voters. WE NEED TO FOCUS ON US, NOT THE DEMS. THEY HAVE TAKEN OVER OUR TENETS -- EDUCATION, FREEDOM, RESPECT AT HOME & ABROAD ..AND TAKING CARE OF THE CHILDREN AND ELDERLY. Republicans are the laughing stock of the world, not just Europe and Asia but just ask our neighbors Canada and Mexico.
AND WHY DO ALL THE CRAZY REJECTED DISGRACED JOURNALISTS END UP AT OUR NETWORKS??
I'm tired of losing, and being lumped in with ignorant uneducated disgusting vulgarians like Marjorie Green and Boebert and Gohmert, Gosar, Gaetz, Ron Johnson and pathetic idiot Tommy Tuberville. I wish JD Vance hadn't turned into a villain. He fooled me biiiig time. I still like Jon Huntsman but I think he is as disgusted with Republicans as I am. WAKE UP GUYS!!!! What the heck..
Aaargh... we are the party of Self-Owns😠😡😤😖😨💔💔❤🩹💔
Unfortunately he isn't. He's too sane. I don't support them but Tulsi Gabbard and Andrew Yang were reasonable people also and forced out of the party.
I'd be honored to be lead by this man - you sir have nothing to worry about with your condition, I can listen to you all day. I remembered a quote from Rumi who said "Raise your words and not your voice, for it is the rain that grows flowers, not thunder" - its your words that matter, you are a man of integrity (proven by the life you've lead) and are very well spoken. Keep going! You have my vote.
The fact that so many people admire him despite his terrible voice, I think says a lot about the quality of his message and character.
Yes!
I hope people ARE willing to listen in spite of his voice. As a conservative, I don't agree with a lot of his views, BUT I think he IS someone with convictions and sticks to them, unlike so many on BOTH sides of the political aisle who just bend with the wind. They don't seem to have any convictions they stand up for. They just go with whatever direction they're pushed towards.
It speaks volumes to the lack of education in this country and poor critical thinking skills
Too many cigars
@@robertc7886 And not enough vaccines 😂
If I were a U.S. citizen and resident, he would definitely have my vote as well!
I don’t have any issue listening to you Sir. In fact I have more respect for you than I do for most people and I’d listen to you no matter how you sound as your words are vital for our society. I’m honored to hear you speak. ❤
Definitely respect him a lot. I feel so sorry for him because the establishment won't allow him near the presidency. Because he is honestly to good and kind. 😢

Independents, conservatives, centrists, ex-Democrats and others who are joining the Democratic party to support and vote for RFK Jr, also need to become DELEGATES supporting him at the 2024 Democrat party convention - enough delegates to push RFK past all of Joe Biden's delegates to snap up the Democrat party nomination.

You're no Republican. First off, this nutter is indistinguishable from Trump. And Trump is a RINO fraud who insults all lifelong Republicans and intentionally wrecks party unity. That boils down to the Democrat RFK Jr impersonating Donnie Democrat Trump the RINO who was a Clinton-Gore-Sanders-EPSTEIN loving registered DEM from 2001-2009. Whatever that history of confusion amounts to it sure don't belong in the GOP.
Bingo. I think you hit it right on the head. The establishment.
Vote for him in the primary!!! Make sure he’s on the ticket!
That’s your problem. You think you need the establishments approval for him as a candidate. You can write his name in on the ballot.
It’s because Republicans buy into a lot of the same conspiracy theories. Isn’t he big into the environment though. Will saving the environment be a problem with you?
His voice is in part the reason that I understand his positions. I feel like the first few times I watched him speak I had to really pay attention to what he was saying. I think of the smooth voiced politicians of the past that sold Americans on charm and lies. I wonder if they were burdened with the same thing would they have been elected?
I have spasmodic dysphonia (aka dystonia) as well!!!! Mine began around age 11 though. I'm 59 now and it's still with me; always will be. Bobby's courage in speaking out still inspires me to speak out at times, too. He has vital information that needs to be heard.
Dysphonia and dystonia are not the same thing.

As a lifelong Reagan Republican who voted for Trump twice I switched party affiliation to vote for RFK JR in the primaries and beyond, He's our only hope and I've never been this excited about a candidate #Kennedy24

The Democratic party badly needs an infusion of new blood from independents, conservatives, centrists, moderate Republicans, ex-Democrats and others to reform and refurbish the party and to kick out the woke and cancel culture types that have ruined the Dem. party - from an ex-Democrat.
Wow. Why were you Republican in the first place.
I'm from Australia but I would definitely vote for RFK jnr. I hope he gets in as we are tired of being influenced by the corporate puppets that have been running the US and Australia.
As a conservative voter in general I feel like RFk is the voice of everyone. Not the voice of the left or right but the voice of the people. We are all raspy in one way or another. He is all voices, ours most importantly.
He's a wacky conspiracy theorist
@@Pdmc-vu5gjin what regard?

Not gonna lie, the first 3 or 4 times clips of him came up I had to shut them off. Now, I find myself listening more closely to what he has to say because the WORDS are meaningful. I am excited to hear more of what RFK has to say

Who doesn't like Bobby Jr ? He is bridging the great divide and it doesn't matter if you are democrat or independent or republican... He will deliver. Also... I could listen to him all day and all night... I don't care about his condition... I think it adds a little spice to his message.
or LIbertarian...
Robert Kennedy Jr. does not support our 2nd Amendment. I admire him, but will never vote Democrat or a Candidate who does not Support our Constitution.
Stand up dude, it is really hard to understand him sometimes and I feel like he’s in pain so I feel the pain. If it doesn’t hurt him I just need to get over the sound. He’s a bright man.
Wow what a kind soul. Here he is public speaking with this condition, and he apologized to us for “having” to hear him talk?! He has nothing to apologize for. What a sweet man.
Very true
RFJ Jr is an amazing person and an amazing speaker!
Switching my registration to Democrat just so I can vote for this guy in the primaries! #RFK2024
❤❤❤
All the best wishes for RFK Jr- I am glad he is running.
I'm aware of RFK's condition, and I don't get tired of hearing him talk.
Imagine a president who actually walks his talk! I love the idea of finally having a president who is an actual public servant, which is something RFK Jr has been since childhood. He has a long history of fighting corporate malfeasance and advocating for strong public health agencies free of corruption. He is also well connected and would appoint others with integrity to key positions. If anyone can drain the DC swamp, he can.
This right here. They rarely mention all of the work he has done as an environmental lawyer or that he graduated from Harvard. His track record of holding to his convictions is there.
I'd say least give him a chance because I haven't liked a single president in the last 45 years.

I'm giving him a chance and listening to what he has to say as it's often contrary to the main stream media perspective being told on repeat. He calls out their funding sources and that makes it difficult to be aired yet important to listen to.
Trump walked the walk!
Wow, to be so honest and open about such a deeply personal affliction...you sir have my sincere admiration!!🙏🙏🙏
Yes, now that I know what happened to his voice, it doesn't bother me. I'm more interested in what politicians are saying and doing than how they're saying it.
My mother ended up that completely losing her voice. I will be praying for him. This disease is awful.
Love this man and love to hear him as well
He is very wise to go on the major podcast channels. The Internet is a vast number of interested young and old voters. More so than the cable networks. Everyone is sick to death of war and, as they found out the vast majority of people were not at risk for complications from C, and their lives were turned inside out for nothing. I also think anyone with common sense can see that the border issue is going to have serious consequences. There are also a lot of people who might pick Trump over Biden, but they are tired of the constant controversy and would love to have an eloquent man in the oval office. RFK is the perfect balance between ideas of the left and right (which I think most Americans are) RFK is the only candidate/politician who can have a discussion with so many facts at his fingertips that he is perfect for long form interview channels. Kennedy get lots of free exposure and the channel gets a big viewer boost when he's on. Screw the mainstream media.
Imagine anyone asking about the validity of a Presidential candidate ever again after the Biden administration...
I think he's doing great with what he has to work with. Most of his job is speaking so you have to commend the guy for powering through. I actually see his voice as a strength now because of its uniqueness. 1st time in a long while I've actually liked a Democrat.
He has that same kind of energy where you can see he cares about people and it's not a fake energy either.
A man with no voice that’s speaking the truth
I really feel he is a good hearted man, and his condition makes me feel empathy and compassion for him. It in no way changes my opinion or makes me judge him, the content of what he says is much more important than having a loud, commanding voice and way of speech
Yes! His voice really has improved. Thank you Japan! I can tell the difference. God, I believe will heal it more as he Campaigns! ❤️
He sounds exactly how it feels when you try to yell in a nightmare. Coincidentally, we're living in one & he's yelling out to us. 🗽
Indeed, his voice difficulty is kind of a symbolically representative for the difficulty that Truth has to be spoken and listened to
😂 well put!
