        I second this, it seems a bit too much on the nose to be real.

        Edit: Omg, it’s real.

        Also thunder and lightning really ought to count as seeing and hearing electricity.

        Hell, seeing anything at all may technically count, because electromagnetic waves.

    The dumb thing is, I can kinda understand what the speech writer wanted to say and autoprompted to him. But his fried mind couldn’t understand it and because he’s so vain he won’t wear glasses even though he needs them so he can’t even read the autoprompter half the time.
