SOTU? How about STFU?
Author: BobR    Date: 03/05/2025 13:32:38

In normal times, my essay after a SOTU would be to break down what was said, and what happened during the speech, and commentary on the other party's response. However, this year I just couldn't watch it. I can't stand to see or hear him talk. I'll pass along some media takes on it, though...

Apparently, he thought he was at one of his campaign rallies, because he rambled and rattled his way to for record-breaking length of time (boy, am I glad I skipped it). Here are some takeaways:

He boasted about his exective orders (many of which are already tied up in courts)...
He praised DOGE-bag Elon Musk for DOGE:
“To that end, I have created the brand new Department of Government Efficiency, DOGE, perhaps you’ve heard of it, which is headed by Elon Musk, who is in the gallery tonight,” he added.

Musk’s role may be news to a federal judge hearing cases regarding the mass firings of government workers who demanded to know who was in charge of DOGE and were told that person was Amy Gleason, who previously worked at the U.S. Digital Service.

Trump proceeded to reel off a list of "appalling waste” Musk and his team had identified, though none of that could be immediately verified and past claims of uncovering fraud have turned out to be overstated.

He's still got a hard-on (tiny as it may be) for Panana and Greenland.
He claims there may still be a "deal" with Ukraine (everything is a "deal" to him).

There were some other points as well:

Democrats held up signs in protest to certain parts of his speech. Rep Al Green (D-TX) stood up and interrupted the speech until he was removed from the chamber.

He declared a war on "wokeness".

There are other points at the link, but I am already tired of reading about his verbal diarrhea. From what I've seen, that seems to be the case with a LOT of people, and the coverage of the SOTU has been surprisingly skimpy. Perhaps that's indicative of a future disaster for the Sith regime.
