One trick pony

Some people are praising Donald Trump’s mediocre, uninspiring State of the Union address simply because it was not terrible.

“The agenda I will lay out this evening is not a Republican agenda or a Democrat agenda,” Mr. Trump said, opening his speech on a conventionally presidential note on Tuesday. “It is the agenda of the American people.” (Trump does NOT speak for me - and 56% of American voters!)

A couple of hours earlier, during a private lunch with network anchors that did not stay private long, Mr. Trump called Senator Chuck Schumer, the Democratic leader, “nasty,” described former Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. as “dumb,” ripped into Senator John McCain, and derided Senator Elizabeth Warren as “Pocahontas.”

The speech itself, embedded with patriotic language and delivered in a reassuring tone, veered between two moods — combative and conciliatory. (like a battering husband)

Then, about 15 minutes in, Mr. Trump hit the issue foremost in his consciousness —congressional investigations into his conduct.

First, he pleaded for the new Democratic House to avoid “ridiculous partisan investigations” and cautioned his enemies not to seek “revenge” against him.

Then came bluntest threat to the woman sitting behind him, Speaker Nancy Pelosi: “If there is going to be peace and legislation, there cannot be war and investigation. It just doesn’t work that way!” he said.

The quintessential COWARD, Donald Trump Will Resign the Presidency in 2019.

Reject dualism! Trump has limited thinking capacity (e.g. retarded thinking). He is a “one trick pony” with a border wall instead of an internet firewall. Future Russian hacking is key to his reelection.
