Open Thread: The Dotard’s Last State of the Union Address

by — ,

The Dotard is in the middle of an impeachment trial for abusing is office and obstructing Congress. Yet…here we are about to hear him tell us about the state of the U.S.A. Isn’t that a bit like having Harvey Weinstein deliver an address on the state of the American family?

6:03: I’m at the Roanoke watching the SOTU on CNN. “Трамп entering house chamber” sounds like The Dotard is in the midst of some kind of sexual assault.

6:07: The nutburgers are chanting “four more years!”, turning an official state function into a redneck campaign rally.

6:13: So far, just a bunch of slogans strung together with no real content.

6:24: Just 20 minutes in and Трамп is dipping his toes in xenophobia.

6:31: Good point…

6:31: “Space Force” is a brand new branch of the military except that it is largely a renamed sub-branch of the Air Force.

6:35: When is Трамп calling out Thomas Edison?

6:38: I think Трамп prefers that children go to a failing private school. (“I love the uneducated!”)

6:41: Quick…someone ask Трамп to name one historical Black college or university.

6:42: Трамп claims he will protect coverage for pre-existing conditions WHILE HE IS IN COURT TRYING TO GET RID OF COVERAGE FOR PRE-EXISTING CONDITIONS!

6:44: Can someone please shout, “You Lie!”

6:46: A wall is being built? WHO PAID FOR IT!?!?!

6:51: I threw up in my mouth with this Rush Limbaugh bullshit. That dishonors everyone who has actually earned the metal.

6:54: Wait…I’m confused…is The Dotard claiming he is responsible for delivering a premature infant? Or is he just doing an “Amazing Facts” reality show?

6:59: Трамп spews bullshit about honoring law enforcement. I guess he means unless they are from the FBI.

7:14: …still waiting for The Dotard to boast about all he has done for Puerto Rico.

7:16: This is a reminder that Трамп is still on trial for abusing power and obstructing Congress. Why the fuck is he addressing Congress?

7:26: What a fucking whimp this Трамп is. He had to read everything from a teleprompter. I guess we can call him the teleprompter President.

7:55: SOTU in a nutshell: White supremacist takes credit for the accomplishments of a Black man.
