Donald Trump talks so much that White House stenographers and everyone else is struggling to keep up

The most obvious shift from Joe Biden to Donald Trump has been the flood of talking from the White House.

Summary

Trump’s nonstop talking is overwhelming White House stenographers, with over 81,000 words spoken in his first week—more than triple Biden’s record.

His relentless public presence drowns out opposition and dictates news cycles.

His remarks, often filled with falsehoods, cover a wide range of topics, from policy to wild conspiracy claims.

While some see it as transparency, others worry about misinformation and public fatigue.

His strategy keeps critics off balance but risks exhausting the public, potentially wearing out his welcome.

It probably makes it exponentially more difficult to follow since it's 93% incoherent gibberish. You think you know where a sentence is going and suddenly there's a 90 degree turn and the topic changes from tariffs on chips to talking about an uncle who was a great race car driver.

Is it really a strategy when that’s just how he is? And it’s all misinformation when he speaks about everything without having a shred of intelligence about anything.

81,000 words but how many of them were strung together in a coherent sentence would be a better metric.

between this and the buyout Im wondering if they will be able to keep those stenographers.
