You’d be panicking too if you were involved with child rape and trafficking and the world was about to know the truth

A great and pithy assessment. He knows he’s in quicksand and he knows he’s sinking fast but, instead of remaining calm he’s squirming like a six year old caught with his hand in the cookie jar. Good riddance.

The president of the United States everybody.

Can’t wait for this guy to gish-gallop off into the sunset.

I didn’t watch it, but does it break beyond my “Old Man Yells at Cloud” expectations?

That speech had all the intellectual heft of a drunken note on a cocktail napkin.

WOW, that was the worst presentation of narcissistic delusions of grandure nonsense, I have ever had the displeasure of listening to. To anyone that sat through this worthless waste of airs bloviating, I am sorry you have lost an hour of your life, I will mourn your wasted potential in that time.

SNL can just read directly from the transcript since Trump already wrote the material for them

This panic doesn’t seem very “Presidential” at all.

Excited to pick up my prescriptions next month considering all the cash they’ll be handing me at the pharmacy.

Congress is now dismissed early… bongino resigns… the files come out Friday
Strong “last minute term paper” vibes from that speech.

Can someone please wake me when anyone in this administration and/or the Republican party actually faces tangible and lasting consequences for their actions?

Was the speech demented enough to watch it for the laughs as a foreigner, or was it just your average Trump? I am thinking about putting it on in the background but only if it’s peak dementia.

Honestly man, this whole situation is a dumpster fire. Prez panicking? No surprise there TBH. Too worried bout PR and not enough bout actually dealin’ with the s**t that’s goin down. Hate to be harsh, but we need leaders, not just tweeters. How bout we focus on real action, not just scripted reactions, ya feel me? Can’t have a facepalm moment if there’s no face left… just sayin’.
I thought Presidential Panic was what I was doing since election day.

> His rant contained no news, other than an example of his contempt for the U.S. military, whose loyalty he thinks he can purchase with a onetime $1,776 bonus check.
Likely the whole point of the speech. Considering the hideous plans he has for the military and the entire northern hemisphere.

I watched it briefly with no sound and I could SEE what he was actually YELLING.

Another “Trump is finished” article… been seeing one just about every day since 2017. I’ll believe it when I see it. We still got a long way to go I’d reckon

Over burdening the post office 5 days before Christmas is a great idea.

The main point of this speech was to impress on everybody that the military is on his side. Or at least create the impression that he’s bought their loyalty for 1776 dollars.

I sure hope we get to see the hyenas tear into him like Scar in the Lion King.

I could swear he knows he’s dying and he’s trying to establish some sort of legacy

I love that they broadcast this to the American public during the Survivor finale.
America! Where viewers were relentlessly harassing staff at the Weather Channel for interrupting a broadcast of the Bachelor (or Bachelorette? Doesn’t matter!) to warn people of an impending, deadly tornado.
It got so bad that a meteorologist spent several minutes of the next day berating viewers on air and attempting to pleadingly (and with great exasperation) remind them that early warning systems save lives. He implored them to feel some shame.
I’m sure that Pee Wee German was foaming at the mouth. “We’re going to do this in prime time! They’ll have to tune into you and only you!”
I’m sure everyone’s boomer, Fox-addled parents were delighted to see that vermillion pile of fatty feces go on a 20 minute rant about Joe Biden.
