Who's watching the SOTU?

[striker55]

No way I'd watch, the usual probably happened. Biden say something and Democrats give a standing ovation even though it's bs. Republicans sit on their hands which I can understand.

I’ll read The Cliffs Notes today…

That may be the best way to do it. If you come across a full transcript, would you post a link here? One of the strangest parts of the night was when Dementia Joe was telling us how tough he is on China. Something about "Try and find one other world leader that took on Xi Jin Ping like I did! Just TRY it! I DARE you! DARE YOU!" He was yelling and pointing at the audience.
No one took him on. WTAF?

ETA - never mind, I found it: https://www.nytimes.com/2023/02/08/us/politics/biden-state-of-the-union-transcript.html

It wasn't quite how I thought I heard it. Here it is and you tell me what it means:

He is talking about the US competing with China: "Autocracy has grown weaker, not stronger. Name me a world leader who would change places with Xi Jinping. Name me one. Name me one."

Enjoyed my supper once. Did not want to see it twice.

I don't watch or listen to 'cringe'...

I still remember Pelosi ripping up Trump's State of the Union speech which I thought was pretty good. Never again.

McCarthy should have attached his copy to a helium balloon and let it go. I'm also dissapointed that the repubs weren't wearing a balloon button or had an uninflated one pinned to their coats.

Sanders reply was spot on though. It sounded like a campaign speech, which, one day may prove useful as practice.

The best part of the State of the Union was the mustard-hot memes about Senator Sinema's outrageous dress

The journalist in me — the guy who's always hungry for as many facts and as much information as possible — wants to know just what the heck Arizona Senator Krysten Sinema was thinking wearing this to the 2023 State of the Union:

He thinks if he gets loud and acts tough it works. Not! He also thinks if he says something enough times people believe him. Not!

One hour and 17 minutes of my life.... gone. Joe said the economy is great, the congress is responsible for the open floodgate of the border and he is ready to kick China butt. Joe is my hero... anybody that can BS for that long with a straight face is THE MAN. And after as he stumbled around trying to get out he nuzzled Maxine Waters and took a selfie with Shirley... out TX rep... two old hotties I guess. I also listened to Sarah Huck Sanders and they had her fixed up pretty nice so she didn't scare me as much as usual. She would make a great POTUS.

She was awesome. Great rebuttal speech.
