Donald Trump is normally in the news for what he says, but today was a different story. A landmark speech made by the President has been all the talk on social media because of how he was speaking. Specifically, we're talking about a newfound lisp that just seemed to appear out of nowhere and, as of this writing, no one knows how he got there.

As per TMZ, Trump's slurred speech was the major talking point after he concluded his public appearance, which marred the significance of the occasion a little bit. He became the first President of the United States to recognize Jerusalem as Israel's capital city in 70 years, but when the clarity of his words began to go sideways towards the end of his text, the questions started flying online. Check out the video clip below and see for yourself.


The most likely explanation is that Trump had either a retainer and/or dentures in his mouth that he was having trouble keeping in place, but that didn't stop Twitter conspiracy theorists from theorizing other reasons for the lisp, including drugs use and other questionable activity. Below is a sampling of the online response to Trump's slurred speech.

The White House hasn't officially commented on Trump's difficulty ending his speaking engagement, nor has the President himself clarified things on Twitter, which at this point is where we find out what he's really thinking. Until then, we'll just have to assume that he needs to spend some quality time with a dentist, or maybe not. Who knows.
