Open Thread – Trump’s TV Show Ratings Sucked

Filed in National by on January 9, 2019

To be honest, I don’t know how Trump’s address did in terms of TV ratings. I suspect he bombed. I didn’t watch. Did any of you?

Apparently, it was terrible. His eyes were squinty and his expression flat.

The words, which often sounded more like a speechwriter’s than Trump’s own, were delivered with such slow and deliberate articulation that comic Seth MacFarlane tweeted that the 9-something-minute address “had the cadence of a Wheel of Fortune contestant solving the puzzle.”

    I turned it on for a second and compulsively started to chant Fuck you, you POS over and over because he was lying with almost every word. Stopped watching for mental health reasons.

      Lol. If we aren’t there yet all of us will be soon.

      Extreme leftism is a mental disorder. Everyone on this site suffers from it except those of us who come for the laughs.

        “Liberalism Is a Mental Disorder” was a book written by Michael Savage, a man who is barred from entering the United Kingdom for “seeking to provoke others to serious criminal acts and fostering hatred.”

        So, there is that.

        • anon says:

          As opposed to the hatred you and others post here on a daily basis? Or more like the hatred for anyone who dares disagree with a leftist?

          Clearly mental disorder wasn’t meant literally, although I’m starting to wonder with how much you all obsess over Trump. It’s worse than the teabags and Obama.

            Limpdicks like yourself always claim to be visiting for the laughs, when it’s pretty clear you’re a rageaholic with self-control issues. And not even brave enough to make up a name for yourself.

            Ever have the clap? You’re the personification of the discharge.

    I was at band practice. Would not have watched regardless, we all knew what was coming.

    When we were kids growing up in this area, it was widely known that the glass on the wall was put there to keep the Indians out….lol.

    Here’s Rick Wilson’s take:

    “He reeked of defeat, clearly didn’t want to be there, and it showed. Trump looked exhausted, squinty, and bored, reading in a near-monotone from the Teleprompter. It went over like a wet fart.”
