I am assigned the role of being the dour critic of speeches and debates, but this time I can’t find a bad thing to say about Donald Trump’s speech last night.
Not one damn thing. It was quite literally the best speech before Congress ever, and that is saying a lot. I watched all Reagan’s SOTU speeches, and they were great. But Trump really took these speeches to a new level by avoiding the “laundry list” approach to SOTU speeches and instead leaned into a different Reagan innovation: telling the American story through focusing on ordinary Americans and what brings us together.
They can’t even be bothered to applaud capturing a terrorist that murdered Americans.
Trust me, NORMAL Americans will see that and glean something from it.https://t.co/8GrEiR20OS
