I’d be open to the democrats working with Trump to lower medical costs, build infrastructure, get meaningful immigration reform, etc.
But in reality I’m sure everything Trump and the gop propose will be a mixture of plutocratic and white nationalist to deal with these problems. Also Trump doesn’t negotiate in good faith.
So a bunch of feel good proposals that will never happen.
$1,000 and pay my top shelf bar and food bill. And the payee can’t talk to me during or ever again after the speech if s/he is a Shit-Gibbon sycophant. Also, if a sycophant, paid in advance because you can only trust them as much as an intelligent person would trust CFSG.
I’ll be impressed if the twerp’s so-called speech is not an obviously bad Russian-to-English teanslation.
Even if he manages to avoid going off-script, the only thing he could say that is of value is, “I resign”. Not going to happen, so I’m not watching it.
As much as I don’t want to watch this, hell, I’ll do it for way less than a thousand bucks. A hundred bucks strikes me as being generous. I can zone out for 60-90 minutes to collect Valentine’s Day dinner money.
And as to this, the transcript won’'t read the way his rantings usually do. His normal speech is almost incomprehensible. Stephen Miller and some other folks in the Young Fascists League will have written this, and it will be dishonest and horrible, but the English will be more or less correct.
I plan to watch. I am a glutton for punishment I guess- somehow I feel obligated to watch these things no matter who it is.
Hard to say how stupid it will be. It could be anything from sticking gamely to the script to screaming obscenities. You never know, it could be the day he finally “turns presidential”. <----- a joke if you can’t tell.
My students have been assigned a paper on the speech, but even I am not cruel enough to require them to watch the whole thing. I told them to catch the “low-lights” on Youtube and the news channels after the fact. Me, I plan to either follow along the threads on Daily Kos and here, and/or drink heavily.
He’s a reality show guy, so we all expect some special jaw dropping twist. He will not deliver. He will double down on his swarms of criminal, disease-ridden Mexicans attacking the border, possibly escalating their presence there to the level of a biological attack. He will also repeat his infomercial exercise. Everything he has touched has turned to gold, and everything is in shambles because of Democratz. He will dance right up to, but not come out and call down, a federal emergency. He’ll wave his pecker at it, but he won’t have the nerve to pull the trigger in that venue. Tomorrow morning, via Twitter maybe.
Oh! Almost forgot: He will take credit for getting Nancy to let him have his SOTU.
I’m not watching it. I’ll be drinking a lot of beer and annihilating Alduin, again. Maybe petting a cat or two.
