He sounds whiny, wheedling, nasally, high-pitched, lisping and petulant. He's trying for outrage but it sounds rehearsed and he stumbles over his words when he tries to emphasize them. His stiff hand motions don't help either. He needs some voice coaching, because it would have been a lot more impactful otherwise.
