āISIS is not going away anytime soonā
Butā¦butā¦butā¦ I thought Trump said he had a secret plan to defeat them within 30 days!
I canāt imagine any scenario in which Iād inflict that on myself.
I was in the car, it was on the radio, I am a masochist and like shouting at and flipping off the radio as it transmits the rantings of a lying delusional moron proposing grand solutions to fictional problems.
I must be a masochist, and Iām starting to suspect Trump passed word around that all the faithful have to keep clapping as long as he does.
And there he goes, actually saying a record was just set.
I canāt watch, myself, but has he mentioned how many electoral votes he received, yet?
And more importantly, has my prediction from November come true??
(Iām fully prepared to deploy the āWell actually, a newly-elected presidentās first address to Congress isnāt technically a State of the Union addressā argument, if it hasnāt happened. But entirely hypocritically, Iām also entirely prepared to accept the amazement and fawning incredulity of the BBS-at-large to the perspicacity of my Cassandra-like powers of prognostication, if it has.)
I didnāt listen to the whole thing and I couldnāt stomach the video, but he started with claims of a mandate from the millions and millions by families of all colors and creeds who joined to start a revolution. Literally every sentence contained some lie, spin, or complete delusion, but he said them calmly, so the pundits will surely be talking about the pivot. I bailed about 20 mins in, thankfully. No one should be subjected to that.
In case anyone here is wishing that someone would put words to what weāre all thinking: āFUCKETY, FUCKETY, FUCK, FUCK, FUCKING FUCKā. I think that pretty much encapsulates where my brain is right now with this mess weāre in.
I caught the tail end on live TV. He clearly read the whole speech written by Bannon or whoever. The big 3 networks all seemed to be gushing over his āpivot.ā
It is surprising that he can read after all.
The secret of success - low expectations.
Not as bad as any previous Trump speech, though the parts that were decent were the parts where his policy completely contradicted his promises, and in terms of a presidential address to Congress probably the worst in US history. And because he calmly spouted rank bullshit, openly lied, and veiled the hate in nice rhetoric, the cable news talking heads media gushed because they have very, very strange standards.
Strange indeed. Itās almost like they want him to succeed. This is why we need folks like Cow. We need a much stronger ground game.
āI am here tonight to deliver a message of unity and strength, and it is a message deeply delivered from my heart.ā
Hereās a message of unity from everyone in America who isnāt a racist shitbag: Chortle your own balls, twitler.
Iām sorry if this violates community standards, but that whole speech violated any sort of standards for reasonable engagement in any community. Tying a bow on a burning cross doesnāt put the flames out.
Youāre all a bunch of masochists
I hope this is just because most sane people werenāt watching:
Nicely put.
