2019 SOTU: Who’s Watching? (Poll)
OK, fellas, who is going to watch Le Grand Orange (obvious Rusty Staub MLB reference) strut his stuff tonight) ? And who will hang in there for Miss Georgia 2018’s Democrat response? Discuss.

I haven’t watched SOTU from beginning to end since Bill Clinton’s “the era of big government is over” howler. I don’t plan to watch tonight. Anyway, I have to attend a meeting.
I’m sure you guys will let me know if I miss anything.

I’m betting that our resident civic activist GannonFan will watch at least part of it.

Heck no for me, Sixers game is on and I can barely tolerate reading newspaper headlines that deal with Trump, let alone watch him speak for any extended amount of time.

Re: 2019 SOTU: Who’s Watching? (Poll)
I have listened to only one Drumpf speech: his inaugural address. It was coherent only because it was scripted. That said, it was dark and unappealing.
If you want an example of incoherent rambling, take a gander at the transcript of Trump’s recent Face the Nation appearance. As a lawyer, I sympathize with any counsel who has to prepare that guy for a deposition or for Congressional testimony. My general approach with witnesses was “listen to the question, answer the question, and shut up.” With Trump, it will be game over from the first question.

I listened to part of that in the car - I think not having to see him while also hearing him made it possible. But yeah, the actual transcripts of him talking are all you need to read to get the full gist of what is, or isn't, going on in his head.Ivytalk wrote:I have listened to only one Drumpf speech: his inaugural address.

The worst thing you can do is listen/watch one of these speeches. Even the most godawful idea can sound reasonable if delivered correctly. Read the speech and think about it as you go. Been my strategy for more years than I'll admit to.

Re: 2019 SOTU: Who’s Watching? (Poll)
I don't know so I chose other. I don't think I have ever watched a State of the Union speech. Maybe but if I did I don't remember. Maybe I watched Reagan. But I can't rule out the possibility that I'll flip through channels and watch some of it. And I am curious as to how Abrams will do. She's pretty good at presentation so it'd be interesting to see if she does better than opposition Party respondents usually do.
It's pretty much a guarantee that if I watch any of it it won't be much. I'll just tune in later to find out about how many false statements trump made and how people think Abrams did.

Well, I believe that I must tell the truth
And say things as they really are
But if I told the truth and nothing but the truth
Could I ever be a star?

This, especially in the crazy years like this one. This might be the best one since Joe Wilson shouted "You Lie!" and Samuel Alito shook his head while Obama was speaking.89Hen wrote:I rarely miss one, no matter who is in office.
