The first 20 minutes of Donald Trump’s State of the Union speech was all about telling us what a great job he has done.
Happily Trump did not digress from his planned speech.
It is not difficult to find words that describe Donald Trump. He is the super promoter of himself. He is the P.T. Barnum of the early 21st century who emphasized with extreme exaggeration his place in American history. Braggadocio, glorification, and boasting are the words that best describe his State of the Union speech. He clearly reveled in the attention and honor he received both entering and leaving Capitol Hill. He was in his glory with every moment of applause during his speech.
If you heard his speech or read the transcript you know that other than calling on the Congress to produce “a bill that generates at least $1.5 trillion for the new infrastructure investment” and an “administrative fix for high drug prices” there were no other plans proposed.
This speech will go down in history as a boring and an utterly uninspiring waste of time.
