    This speech will undoubtably turn everything around for the president, his fearmongering, tax breaks for corporations, continued threats of more tariffs and persuasive assurance that we are actually in a golden age will resonate with even the most skeptical.

    Speech of his life, they’ll call it. Even AOC will admit that he’s right, Elizabeth Warren will say it doesn’t matter if he’s in the Epstein files. Newsome wears a MAGA hat.

    Red wave 2026, calls to let Trump run in 2028. No doubt at all.

    I’m waiting for the inevitable clips. I refuse to watch a Presidential Address from this demented Epstein-riddled invertebrate.

    It’s gonna be a tumor ridden speech of garbled crap. Most, if not all will be lies or mistruths. Not watching that cancer.

    I’m calling it now: He announces that we’re selling Australia to the highest bidder. (Except that twice he says Austria, but everyone’s pretty sure he means Australia.)

    How many lives will he claim to have saved this time? For his SCOTUS rant press conference, I believe it was 25 million people. Will he claim the entire country would be dead if not for him?

    Not planning on watching it but I’m sure I’ll see stuff online about what he said. Thinking I better run out and grab a six pack….

    Thank you, thank you. Please sit down. They said it couldn’t be done, the fake news said it, Lamestream Media, total disaster, but we did it. We did it bigger than anyone. Bigger than Lincoln, and I love Lincoln, great president, not as good as me but great.

    Now, Venezuela. Terrible place. Horrible. Maduro, not a good person, I know people who know him, very bad guy, bad energy, you can just tell. We handled Venezuela, and frankly it should have been handled years ago by the radical left Democrats who are sitting right there, look at them, looking very nervous right now, very guilty.

    Iran, and I have to talk about Iran because nobody talks about Iran like I do, nobody understands Iran like me, we had them. We had them by the, we had them in a very strong position. I did a deal, I did the greatest deal, and then Biden came in and gave them everything. Gave them billions. Billions!. Stupid. But we’re back now and Iran knows, they know, they got the message, we sent a very strong message, I won’t say what the message was but it was very strong and they understood it immediately.

    Greenland, and this is maybe the most important thing I’ll say all night, maybe ever, we need Greenland. The location, the ice, it’s incredible ice, world class ice. Denmark, lovely people, I like their pastries, tremendous pastries, but they cannot have Greenland. They don’t know what they have. You know who knew what they had? Iran. Iran always knew what they had. Which is why we took it away.

    Speaking of taking things away, our military is the strongest it’s ever been. A general came up to me, Dan Caine… big strong guy, tears streaming down his face, he said Sir, I’ve never seen anything like it.

    The economy is incredible. Best numbers ever recorded in the history of numbers. Inflation is gone. I ended it. Crime is gone. I ended that too. Venezuela, Iran, Greenland, we’re handling it, we’re handling all of it, nobody handles things like we handle things.

    God bless you, God bless Greenland which will soon be ours, and God bless the United States of America. Thank you.

    I’m watching old reruns of Beavis and Butthead. I’m not sure there’s a difference now that I think about it…

    The economy is the best in history. Also democrats are to blame for high prices with the affordability scam. We are the strongest nation ever except we’re weak which is democrats fault. I am the best ever and democrats hate me. Did I mention I’m the best? Let’s give it up for trump. Me good. democrats bad. I just shit my pants and it was the democrats fault. The beautiful tariffs were ruined by democrats. I am so great. I am so tremendous and everyone loves me except the democrats. Transgender. Woke. The left. Socialism. Hillary Clinton for some reason. Paid Israel plug. America. Coal. I am so great. Jeffrey Epstein was a very fun guy and he loved me the most. I am so cool. Did I mention myself yet?

    I want everyone who is sick of what’s happening to watch the SOTU, and I want everyone watching to collectively project as much ire that you can towards the image of Trump on your TV, that our combined and simultaneous energy may somehow magically curse him and seal his fate. It might sound cringe, but I’m desperate lol, and none of us stand to lose anything by trying this. Imagine in your minds’ eye all of the anger and sadness that Trump has caused you to feel over the last 10 + years as one giant clump of terrible energy, and cast it on to him by willing his demise, while imagining a world where Justice, Peace, Democracy, and the Will of the People will come to life. Perhaps with enough collective energy, we can break through whatever supernatural psychic energy barrier that protects this psychopath, and lead him to ruin to face Justice for his innumerable crimes. This too shall pass, let’s make tonight that night. The beginning of the end for him
