It seems inhumane to put someone through this unnecessarily, rollout Trump’s little tidbits noted during the State of the Union. On the other hand,  there is some entertainment value to the exercise in that Trump went out of his way to say Biden was telling the truth, except that TRUMP was the one who did it!

This is one of my favs:

He’s using my “Forgotten Men and Women,” without saying they have been Forgotten by the Democrats, and helped by the Republicans and me!

The “forgotten man and woman” theme, motif, phrase, whatever, has been used in literature and politics for as long as I can remember.

So there’s that.

Some nice Trump hatred, just to verify Trump was the one actually blogging:

Just showed Racist Maxine Waters with a big smile on her face, but this is a woman that truly hates America!

Trump, concerned about Biden’s well-being:

Keeps using the word “Folks”—must be a nervous habit! We should all sit down and talk to him about this.

Lies? But, of course:

He’s absolutely screaming, “Infrastructure, Infrastructure,” then he shouldn’t be wasting all of our money on China-produced windmills and the Green New Deal!

The Green New Deal is not a law. It’s not even a thing anymore. But getting us greener damn sure is a thing, plus there are plenty of roads, bridges, and airports in that infrastructure bill that Trump never passed.

Gratuitous cheap shots?

Just showed Swalwell, a man who spent a lot of time in Spy Fang Fang’s “honey net,” and wasn’t removed from our most important Committee. Only in America!

The second that the FBI gave Swalwell a heads up, almost eight years ago now, he broke everything off and cooperated with the FBI against her. GOP Urban Legend now.

He’s talking about the jobs that went away to other Countries, but they went away through the Democrats. I’m the one who brought them back!

Actually, he’s mostly referencing the ones lost to COVID, which is no one’s fault, and bragging that they’re coming back in record numbers.

Joe’s taking credit for many of the things that the Trump Administration started and did. They just happened to kick in during this period—but who can blame him!

Trump can blame him. And just wait until the infrastructure and drug-saving programs really kick-in. A lot of Joe’s stuff hasn’t even really hit the average tax payer.

His Climate Change statements, they can no longer use Global Warming because that doesn’t work anymore, will bankrupt our Country, and bring us into the Third World status, which we’re getting closer and closer to anyway.

It’s the other way around, all of this, dickhead.

Intra-party warfare? Of course.

Mitch McConnell looks like Hell, so bad for the Republican Party!

And:

Stumbling, bumbling, he just can’t get the words out. I don’t want that to happen, but the World is watching, and it’s not a pretty sight!

Yes, Donald Trump actually said that. He is apparently unfamiliar with his speeches.

…Secretary General Stoltenberg of NATO said what I did was perhaps the most amazing feat he had ever seen. I got countries to pay that hadn’t paid, and to pay quickly.

…And on the other subject, NATO would have no money right now if I didn’t get them to put up $450 Billion Dollars of unpaid and delinquent money that no other President was able to get. They’re fighting with the money that I got, not any other President that preceded me, and certainly not this President. Remember the expression, I gave them javelins, Obama gave them sheets, and that’s the way it is, like it or not…

NATO had plenty of money before. Trump planned on taking us out of NATO. Joe got NATO to rally around us again. And, Ukraine had not been invaded during the Obama administration (Crimea was, but there was no war, a lot of very sanctions that Trump tried to get rid of). Russia got kicked out of the G8, Trump tried to bring them back.

And since this is getting boring now, we’ll top it off with magnanimous Trump:

Look, he worked hard tonight, it’s not a natural thing for him, it never was, and never will be, but you’ve got to give him credit for trying. I disagree with him on most of his policies, but he put into words what he felt, and he ended up the evening far stronger than he began. Give him credit for that. Many things weren’t mentioned that should have been, but that’s for another time. I’ve done a little clip, perhaps you’d like to watch it. Good night everybody, and God Bless America!

Nah. We’ll skip it. If we want to see negative divisiveness, we’ll watch Sarah Huckabee-Sanders’ response… No, we’re not doing that, either. So, there it is, some highlights from Trump liveblogging the SOTU!

The State of the Union is strong… but it’s got a big dent on the starboard side, taking on a bit of water.
