So Trump just gave a very angry "Goddammit, I'm wonderful, you should love me" speech.

Only thing missing was a bottle of ketchup to splatter the greenery. He was so indignant about having to remind people how much he's accomplished that I thought he might stroke out.

It was basically just a condensed rally speech. Nothing new. All lies.

No substance. At all. Less satisfying than a fart after Thanksgiving dinner.

the insane felon just makes stuff up. Unemployment is up, manufacturing jobs are disappearing, Trump has ended zero wars. Inflation is as high as when he took office and it will be moving up due to his tariffs and interest rate cuts.
What a pathetic loser.
