    My impression was that it was so boring, he almost fell asleep himself. Delivered in a low monotone, with the content playing to his base. He did speak about "women's rights," but I suspect that was at the urging of his daughter, who was there. Don't recall anything about climate change, but I may have missed it? Globalism bad. National patriotism good. Etc. Etc.
    Anyone think he may have been on some sort of tranquilizer? On the positive side...he wasn't laughed at and received polite applause at the end.
    Of course, given his supporter's attitude regarding the United Nations, he may have been deliberately seeking nothing more than "polite applause." Boo's might have been better for him.

    The only time he seems to get animated is when he is complimenting himself or attacking someone. Perhaps what he needed today was some Q'anon wacko's cheering him on.

    It's the proper way to breath.

    The nose acts like an air filter.

    Would you say that it was a distraction and people didn't get the message ?

    The message was nationalism not globalism and he was kinda sending out the same message that Alexander Hamilton did back in the day.

    America’s freedom is tied to her economic independence
    Alexander Hamilton wrote: "Not only the wealth, but the independence and security of a country, appear to be materially connected with the prosperity of manufactures. Every nation...ought to endeavor to posses within itself all the essentials of a national supply. These comprise the means of subsistence, habitation, clothing and defense." America’s political independence Hamilton was saying, could not survive without economic independence.

    If there was any cocaine involved, Hillary would be demanding a cabinet position in the Trump administration.

    Hmmm...he's said he doesn't smoke or drink, but I don't believe he's ever said anything about drugs, has he?

    Probably as close as he could get without actually being a Tory...but officially he was one of the founders of the Federalists.

    I suppose the Federalist could be labeled as right wing.

    But I believe that America should be able to feed and clothe itself and provide what ever manufactured goods the people need without depending on foreigners. That would also mean being able to defend itself and being able to manufacture the arms to do so.

    What surplus of crops and manufactured goods there would be would then be sold abroad and what natural resources America didn't have or goods not manufactured in America would be imported,

    When you see Trump running around bare chested with no shirt is when I would be concerned. Meth heads and tweekers are always sweating and are hot and remove their shirts.

    Those on bath salts remove all of their clothing before eating brains..

    If I remember correctly, junkies had runny noses and cocaine users had itchy noses.

    Profiling is good law enforcement.

    The Federalists were the faction of the founders who favored a national constitution and the repeal of the Articles of Confederation. A Confederation is more of an alliance between nations...a federation is similar, in that the states which belong have their own sovereignty, but has its own central government.

    Generally, free trade economists recognize "defense industries" as an exception to free trade economics. However, there are certain "rare metals," critical to defense not found in the United States.
    Don't see how it can be avoided...but it doesn't equate to "probable cause."

    And the Chi-Coms have those "rare earth" materials that America's national security depends on and the environmentalist wackos need for their PC green electric vehicles.

    And the greenies are clueless on how much greenhouse gasses are released into the atmosphere to get those rare earth metals out of the ground and shipped to Tesla who have to manufacture their PC electric vehicles in Reno Nevada because of California's business unfriendly regulations.

    Hmmm...Greta Thunberg's lashing of the world's leaders over their lack of action on climate change received a better reception than Trump's speech.

    I remember back in 1989 when President G.H. Bush held a press conference and held up a bag of cocaine saying that DEA agents had just purchased the cocaine in a park just across the street from the White House.

    It just happens that Bill and Hillary Clinton were watching this press conference on television.

    This is when Hillary told Bill...
    "Did you hear that Bill ?"
    "You can buy cocaine across the street from the White House !!!"
    "Bill, you need to run for President !!!"

    When a junkie has a monkey on his back and he doesn't feed that monkey he will go through physical withdraws which include a runny nose.
