What didn't he do?


1) brag about his election victory
2) lie about an "electoral landslide"
3) make up numbers of supposed fraud in an election THAT HE WON!


See? It is possible.

I don't think I ever witnesed such disrespect from any party at a joint session speach and I have been watching these for 40 years. Notice how the democrats bolt out right away.

Great closing lines, very powerful and inspirational. And more importantly, they were delivered calmly and with grace. Damn good.

They know, that the moment they fight back, their lives as they have lived them, are over. -Alexander Solzhenitsyn

They know they are DONE and just can't handle it.

I would have put money on him jumping into all of that. I'm very pleased with this speech.

Why isn't he like this all the time? That's my only question.

Maybe he's growing in office. I know, that's not necessarily a good thing. But this was a good and inspirational speech, and he so obviously meant it.

Dems are going to freak out about this speech because they know they lost a potion of their base tonight.

That would make me very happy because I don't think I could take 4 more years of what happened in the past month.

I knew we had gotten intelligence from the raid based reading stories maybe not on TV.  Now the rest of America knows too.

No they didn't. Many people don't care to watch.

That being said, he did a fine job.

Now turn platitudes into action.
How to lose credibility while posting:
1. Trump is never wrong.
2. Default to the most puerile emoticon you can find. This is especially useful when you can't win an argument on merits.
3. Be falsely ingratiating, completely but politely dismissive without talking to the points, and bring up Hillary whenever the conversation is really about conservatism.
4. When all else fails, remember rule #1 and #2. Emoticons are like the poor man's tweet!

He does not need to be. But, he at least proved to me that he can.

   It was good, a great speech, I could really learn to like this guy, in spite of all the other stuff.
No government in the 12,000 years of modern mankind history has led its people into anything but the history books with a simple lesson, don't let this happen to you.

I wonder how the petulant demeanor of the democrats plays among independents. I can't imagine they were impressed.
