25. Just listened to a few minutes of Morning Joe

Thu Dec 18, 2025, 08:49 AM

Thursday

The condemnation is universal--the delivery (shouting), the content (exaggeration) and the Trumpy showmanship (wearing thin). In addition, the question was posed: why did anyone in the WH think a national address was the way to go?

Announcing those $1776 checks to all military members, perhaps, or pay off your soldiers before demanding they follow unspeakable orders came to my twisted mind.

Truthfully? I listened to about 30 seconds of the speech last night. Couldn't stand it any longer. For those who watched/listened to the whole thing? You have my utmost respect.
