And? Is anyone listening?

Yes, obviously.

Yes, obviously.

Who? We know you aren't because you are here telling us about the world's most boring speech.

Inform us as to what he said.

Other than he will vote to open the government that Schumer shut down to continue giving free health care to illegals,

Not right now. Seriously, are you pretending to be retarded?!

He called Trump a dangerous threat to our nation. He called Trump an authoritarian. But I think more accurately Trump is a fascist.

 

[Damocles]

Not right now. Seriously, are you pretended to be retarded?!

Nope, just pointing out that what I posted was accurate.

I do not doubt that his mother might be listening... but most people want the TLDR version, if they want a version of the world's most boring speech at all.

Even you cannot take more than a few seconds of it.

 

[Diogenes]

Not right now.

So who is?

She's 90, and I doubt Hume was listening, either.

 

[Hume]

He used many hours of his speech to describe what he said were Trump’s authoritarian moves, including attacks on the press and policies that Democrats say are enriching billionaires at the expense of regular people. He said that Trump’s plan is to replace a government “by and for the people with a government by and for the powerful.”

President Trump was lawfully elected to reverse the catastrophic vegetable’s years.

He made promises and he is keeping his promises.
