March 4, 2025 — In a horribly written – and even worse delivered – speech where the only excitement was provided by democrats, Trump did a stupid rehash of his weird culture war to distract from his insane economic policy and collapsing stock market. 

  • Trump’s ego was on full display. Insecure and needing to puff himself up with his election numbers, he’s incapable of uniting the country and bridging any divide. He’s destined to play to the MAGA base for applause that he’s desperate to have. 
     
  • Trump proved he’s a guy who still doesn’t understand that a tariff is a tax Americans pay. Yet, is implementing the most destructive economic policy in American history.
     
  • At least he confirmed that Musk is the head of DOGE – we’re sure the judges will appreciate learning that.
     
  • Trump is destroying the international order by attacking our friends and embracing our enemies. Going after Canada? Fighting with NATO over Ukraine? He’s rewarding the dictator Putin and pushing America towards countries that hate democracy. 
     
  • Democrats are finally showing some fight. Now they need to take it to red districts during the break to show voters how Trump and his MAGA minions are going to screw grandma out of her Social Security and Medicare.
