Agreeing w/ @billkristolbulwark.bsky.social,the aspect of the speech that I think really will not wear well was its triumphalism. He came across as a Chaplinesque tinpot dictator, not infrequently a raving one. Greenland, Panama, Pocahontas, Biden. The sneers and the snides. A Pres only MAGA cd love - ThreadSky

And they will love him because they are firmly indoctrinated into the cult.

Traitoresque If Chaplin's character had actually been the real president, it would not have been funny

Does that speech matter? Let's focus on MI Senator Elissa Slotkin's pitch perfect, Midwestern patriotic, TEN MINUTE response. Elevate the good (though I'm sure the circular firing squad will disagree). https://youtube.com/watch?v=F-IKtsFd2fQ ⚖️🇺🇲🗳️

Slotkin needs to get ALL the attention today.

The World should understand just what garbage MAGA is. They dominate Red States like Oklahoma, Tennessee, Idaho, South Carolina, Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama and elsewhere. The World should economically target these states to suffer.

It was a load of garbage. On the other hand he possibly committed perjury. That is the highlight of the night.

Decided not to watch for mental health reasons. Did he talk about assault weapons/mass shootings, reproductive health care, measles and / or vaccines, the people in Ukraine, egg prices, immigrants eating cats and dogs, planes crashing, visiting Kentucky or North Carolina, or how melania is helping?

That was the whole point of his "joint address". It was theater to entertain and motivate MAGA. That was his "circus", I'm not sure he will deliver on the "bread".

What happened to Trump's claim that he was going to bring the country together? Honestly, his words are meaningless. They are like soap bubbles, they exist only in the moment.

trump thinks he has divided the world into spheres of influence with Russia and China. Panama, Greenland and Canada are in the US sphere of influence. I expect him to attack Panama first.

Mr. Litman respectfully - that’s projection on your part.
The people who see it as Chaplinesque could never be trump voters. We can’t attribute ethics, morals or character to Trump voters because they have none of those traits. If they had them they’d be democrats.
