Unlike the president, I don’t call everything “incredible,” but Trump’s State of the Union address was incredible, beautifully delivered. (This guy could have a future in television!)
As proof, I cite every single media outlet bitterly complaining after the speech that, as MSNBC’s chyron put it: “TRUMP FAILS TO MENTION RUSSIA’S ELECTION MEDDLING IN STATE OF THE UNION.”
He did not address the elephant in the room!
A lot of people don’t like Trump, but no one was thinking that. It’s only an elephant in your room, media. This is the very definition of solipsistic.
What did they want him to say? “I confess!”? Then they would have complained that the speech was all about him. There would be five Mueller deputies going over the speech, line by line.
If that’s all they got, it was a great speech.
The media claimed that Trump tricked them into reporting that his address was going to be bipartisan — and then double-crossed them by delivering a “divisive” speech.
To be sure, there were a few partisan flourishes, galling to both sides.
Points Liberals Hate:
— “Beautiful clean coal”;
— The end of Obamacare’s individual mandate;
— Keeping Guantanamo open; and
— Firing useless government employees working for the Veterans Administration.
Points Conservatives Hate:
— Amnesty;
— Pointless wars; and
— Any policy Trump mentioned when the camera flashed to Ivanka.
Altogether, these partisan remarks consumed about seven minutes of an 80-minute speech.
The bulk of Trump’s address celebrated:
— A booming economy;
— Companies bringing jobs home;
— Low black unemployment;
— The flag;
— The national motto;
— God;
— Rebuilding roads and bridges;
— Law enforcement;
— The life of a child born to an opioid addict;
— The military;
— Veterans; and
— Getting the best immigrants we can.
