Brandon Friedman, a columnist I’m not familiar with, says on his twitter feed that he got 2 different views on how Trump’s speech was received. Here’s his tweet followed my enlargements of the images.

Here’s the media part:

Now here’s how the vets on his twitter feed viewed the speech.

Sometimes a speech is viewed very differently by different groups of people. Obviously the press drooled all over their Trump cash cow, but other people may have had a different perspective. Often times the views of people who watched the show will change as more critical opinions are seen. We’ll just have to wait a few days to see the final reviews of how this speech and Trump’s deception actually played with the American public.
