So, Joe wants to cure cancer. He couldn’t even face up to COVID but he wants to cure cancer. And amazingly he ended by declaring that “the state of our nation, I mean our union, is strong.”
It was as expected, long, boring, and dishonest. He went over all the crap he wanted to spend money on and told us all about the courageous Ukrainians (or Iranians as he called them at one point). I counted about ten verbal gaffes but he didn’t fall off the podium so it was a big win for him. But let’s do a quick review. He lied about the border, he lied about crime, he lied about off-shoring jobs, he lied about energy, he lied about inflation, he lied about COVID and he lied about everything else I can’t remember. And Pelosi and Kamala spent most of the speech clapping like seals to protect their finger nails.
I wish I could get the hour back.
The Governor of Iowa. Kim Reynolds, did a pretty good job. She was coherent, didn’t say anything obviously untrue and was able to lay out a case for why the real leadership in this country on COVID was provided by Republican governors. All in all, she was a hundred times more believable than Dopey Joe and much easier to listen to.
Well, that’s my report. It wasn’t fun because he didn’t seize up and tumble off the podium. I guess there’s always next year.
