"You get the little yips up here every once in a while," Trump told the crowd. "I wonder why it was a strange sound. I've heard some very strange sounds."

A person quipped, "When he speaks. It's always a strange sound," and another joked, "The drones moving in on him." 

"That’s the sound of Elon breathing down Donny’s neck," an individual mocked. "Good grief...four more years of this nonsense," someone else snarked. 

"He’s so easily distracted! I’ve never seen a grown man incapable of staying focused! He’s like a toddler!" chided another person. 

One more said, "It's those demons in your brain Donald."
