    “Americans have been waiting for their president and commander in chief to address the nation and explain why the country is at war,” Tom Nichols writes. Donald Trump’s critics “have castigated him for refusing to go on television and provide a comprehensive explanation of the war to the American people. But given his performance this evening, perhaps he had the right instinct.”

    Trump’s address “did not come across as a wartime speech but instead was a disjointed series of complaints, brags, and exaggerations (along with a few outright lies) delivered by a man who looked and sounded tired,” Nichols continues. “After his 19 minutes on the air—brisk by Trump’s standards—Americans could be forgiven for being even more concerned now than they were only a few days ago.”

  2. If we’re gonna talk about mistakes…

    Maybe Trump should not have won this election.

  3. Hindsight is 20/20. Unless you’ve got dementia and a failing memory, I guess. But surely that doesn’t apply to anyone in any important position, right? Right?

    Maybe Stephen ‚Temu Goebbels‘ Miller should not have written it. Nobody wants to hear this weakling blowhard rhetoric.

    there are no leaders at the helm, just racist, sexist, greedy toddlers.

    Biden wouldn’t have started WWIII…and he still has his marbles! Weak minds fell for propaganda because they viewed a stutter and having morals as weak.

  5. Nothing good comes from Trump opening his mouth ever but doubly so in this case. 

  6. Trump should never have given any speech. He was doing OK as a minor criminal in Queens, but he wanted the big time.

    Trump bragged so much, we must be in real trouble in Iran.

    But at least Trump fell back on his favorite excuse: Why doesn’t someone else do it? First Nato, now former presidents

  8. writeinfreedom on

    I anticipated he would say virtually nothing new, likely lie about nearly everything, say ambiguous things while making promises we don’t know if he’ll honor, and essentially be no further to understanding the next phase of his selfish retaliation against Iran.

    So I skipped it.

    Probably y’all should do that next time.

    I better hear every fucking talking head declaring that he’s unfit for office, he’s cognitively impaired, he’s being controlled etc etc etc just like they did with Biden after the debate.

    I want to see every political commentator calling for Trump to step down or I swear I will lose my shit. 

    I want to see blood over this shit, but of course we won’t because the media fucking loves Trump and is scared of him and a huge foundation of a pillar of American democracy is completely and utterly broken.

  10. I try to watch Trumps speeches to gauge how he has deteriorated since the last one. But I watched the Artemis 2 launch instead. Its the only good thing our government has done in the past year. Very surprised Trump didn’t take credit somehow.

    All he accomplished with the speech was to send oil futures way up and stock futures way down.

    Idk, i think if he had been locked up in jail as he should’ve been, we wouldnt have had to listen to any incoherent ramblings of a delusional war monger who’s barely holding onto his last remaining thread of lucidity.

  13. It was like the lyrics for forgot about Dre but for the president

    Now days the president wanna talk like he got something to say but nothing comes out when he moves his lips just a bunch of gibberish

  14. He was low energy, seemed nearly out of breath often, garbled words and his teleprompter delivery feels like it’s taking all his focus to just drone through words he doesn’t seem to care about, like it is an achievement he can read them at all. That the whole thing was only about 20 minutes and he barely perked up for any of it just points more light at how significantly he has declined. Noticeably worse since just a month or two ago, practically night and day since last year.

    But also notable in that this speech is an example of him at his *best*. This is the best he can put himself together to present. It is not going to get better and likely the decline will accelerate.

  15. Apprehensive-hippos on

    Why not?  Let everyone see just how corrupt and nonfunctional he is, I say.  

    This is insanity.

  16. InsomniaticWanderer on

    Maybe Trump shouldn’t give any speeches.

    Maybe Trump should be in jail.

    If you liked “It’ll Disappear Like A Miracle After Easter” then you’re gonna love, “We’ll Be Out Of Iran In Two Weeks!”

    A new comedy from the makers of “If We Stop Testing We’ll Have Fewer Cases”.

    IMPEACH AND REMOVE. Guys wtf is happening and why is Congress not stopping him?

  19. turb0_encapsulator on

    Maybe it’s time for all of us to start talking about the 25th Amendment.

  20. That wasn’t a speech. That was the ramblings of a doddering, senile old man.

  21. He should be serving a life sentence in prison. Ideally, a short sentence.

  22. The fall of the United States must be what I was meant to witness, and what a clownshow it has been. 

  23. Bulky_Preparation768 on

    Every media appearance is clearly worse than the debate performance than Biden had. He’s absolutely fucking cooked mentally.

  24. TheGOPisTheDeepState on

    Trump shouldn’t have been elected but racists, pedophiles, and billionaires said otherwise….racists and pedophiles are obviously the 99% of that.

  25. Mugwump5150 on

    Crazy to think when the deets all come to light, the Trump files may pale in contrast to the hundreds of thousands or millions of children he starves to death needlessly by stopping US Aid. And the hospitals filled with patients who all died the other night when his embargo of Cuba resulted in a collapse of their power grid and EVERY patient on a ventilator died. Add to that the tens of thousands of Americans who will perish as a result of his BBB placing their insurance out of reach. Estimates of additional deaths from his handling of Covid in his first term top 50k.

  26. All of his speeches are ones he shouldn’t have given. This piece of shit is a liar and an unrepentant sociopath. No word from his mouth is worth the air it takes to speak it. I hope he rots in his dementia until his last ragged breath.

  27. Somehow Europe are the bad guys for not jumping at the oppertunity to commit war crimes at Iran. There is no point and no justification for bombing Iran to the stone age.

  28. >A speech that should have been a clear explanation of why the United States is fighting a nation of 92 million people began instead in shambolic style.

    >He discussed the operation that captured the president of Venezuela, perhaps hoping to make listeners believe that the Iran war will be a similarly short operation.

    >He then said that Iran has taken losses never seen “in the history of warfare”—as if the destruction of, say, the Axis in World War II had never happened.

  29. Diligent-Wave-4150 on

    >His address raised more questions than it answered about the war in Iran.<

    Man, this is true since day one of this horrible presidency!

  30. Express-Pudding5470 on

    Every western nation has basically given up on doing business with US under Trump they are now all joined together to do business with everyone except Trump as Tarrifs destroy our economy

  31. Referencing Trump’s speech as, “…disjointed series of complaints, brags, and exaggerations (along with a few outright lies).”

    Couldn’t have worded it better myself.

  32. Illustrious-Dot-5052 on

    It’s treason. Particularly against those who serve in the military, then against the citizens, in that order. Of course, not to mention the criminal intent against the rest of the world.

    He should face the penalty for treason, which is death. But we all know that will never happen. There is no faith to be had in the United States anymore.
