What a spectacle! Trump’s State of the Union address was nothing but a disjointed monologue of delusions and insults. It’s almost as if he’s trying to re-live his campaign days on national television, complete with his favorite tropes: slandering his predecessor, spewing unfounded economic boasts, and pandering to the far-right with his culture wars. His “greatest era” is laughable as the economy teeters on the brink of a recession. It’s like watching a reality TV show where the star is clueless about the show’s script, and the audience is all too eager to play along. And let’s not forget the Democrats, who are either too dignified or too timid to call out the emperor’s lack of clothes. Instead, they sit there like spectators at a train wreck, hoping it all goes away. Bravo, America, for your collective popcorn consumption!
