SOTU Address, Feb 7th, 2023

[Deranged Rhino]

 

So they're expecting rave reviews of the speech I guess... 

[Foxx]

Corporate America isn't going to like this one.

He can "call for it," because he knows it'll never pass.

 

Also practically impossible, structurally.  The first is, at best, double taxation.  The second runs into the problems of taxing assets rather than income - not impossible to do, but fraught with complexity that Grandpa Biden doesn't understand.

Maher accuses Biden of ‘tragedy porn’ for trotting out family of Tyre Nichols at SOTU: ‘Exploitative’

by Terresa Monroe-Hamilton

 

HBO “Real Time” host Bill Maher blasted President Biden for using Tyre Nichols’ family as political props during his upcoming State of the Union address on Feb. 7, accusing him of engaging in “tragedy porn” while bluntly calling it “gross.” 

 

You know, it’s too soon to impose on that family now in their hour of grief to help you politically. I mean, it’s stunt casting, which they always do at the State of the Union address. And I just, I just feel it’s… we should be better than that.

Am I the only one who will watch this tonight exclusively in anticipation that he shits his pants and starts talking off-script about Corn Pop and choca choca chip?

He's not wrong...but that's also regular practice at the SOTU.

We’re Painfully Aware of the State of Joe Biden’s Union. 

 

“Biden’s speech will be a real test of his staff’s creative writing skills.

 

They will no doubt be trying to convince us that the United States economy is booming and that we should be grateful to President LOLEightyonemillion for all of the bounty we’re enjoying.

 

That’s going to be a tough sell to citizens who are moving money out of their retirement accounts so that they can buy an egg

 

The Biden administration seems to believe that if they keep telling us everything is all right, we’ll eventually be dumb enough to believe it. After watching them all run around being scared of, and confused by, a balloon, it is more difficult than ever to take them seriously.

 

But they really do think we’re idiots, as evidenced by something Mayor Pete said over the weekend, which Catherine wrote about:

Transportation Secretary and Chasten’s wife — er, husband — Pete Buttigieg went on NBC’s Meet the Press on Feb. 5 to preview Joe Biden’s State of the Union address. During that appearance, Buttigieg claimed that Joe Biden is just so wildly successful as president that his accomplishments cannot be easily distilled — hence Biden’s low approval ratings. Yes, Mayor Pete actually said Biden is extremely unpopular because he’s too good at his job.

That's because, on the whole, we ARE idiots. We're stupid enough to believe what he says because pretty much no one is willing to publicly refute it.

 

The economy is booming. Gas prices are lowering. Inflation isn't even a thing any more.

 

Over and over and over until it's gospel.

Don't forget "insurrection," and Biden's bravery for telling others to pop a balloon.

People ain’t reading’ Facebook if they think that is true. The bitching and complaining about prices and inability to afford stuff is 🔥. Just because the White House is lying doesn’t mean people are buying it.

But Facebook is Russian propaganda.  The official truth comes from the White House.

I'll watch as much of this as I did of the Grammys.

There are more than enough leftists buying into and defending his lies than there should be. And you'll watch their elected officials stand and cheer for every single lie he tells tonight. And those officials will easily get re-elected when their re-election comes around.

 

Things aren't any worse now than they were in November, when the lying fools somehow, incredibly, maintained control of the Senate.

 

Trust me. Social media, FB included, is not real life.

It'll probably be sponsored by Pfizer.

Well, now I HAVE to watch it.

 

 

I hope he plays some if his best hits...

So. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . the usual.

 

 

[Crap Throwing Clavin]

I hope McCarthy stands behind Biden and tears a copy of the speech in half.

 

Just because I want to see everyone who praised Pelosi for that in 2020 lose their &#%$ing minds over it.

What's to lie about the balloon?  What's he going to do, claim it was Superman?

 

Which wouldn't entirely surprise me, BTW.
