Title: Predictions for Biden's State of the Union Address
Post by: K Frame on March 01, 2022, 12:16:32 PM
So, tonight's the big night, and I actually might watch this one.

Something tells me that this is going to be an absolute debacle.

I just wonder how over the top the Democrats are going to be (especially Nancy) in their adulation to try to provide cover for the fact that Biden's popularity is cratering and initial polls of his handling of the Ukraine crisis aren't exactly favorable.

I just saw that it starts at 2100.

My prediction is that he nods off halfway through.  He can't stay up that late.

Predictions?

Inflation, gas prices, and shortages will all be blamed on Ukraine (the media is already pushing this narrative). Because as we all know gas was $1.65 and the shelves were full before last week.

I’m sure some monumentally stupid actions concerning Russia will be announced.

He will announce a pivot from Build Back Better to something even worse and blame Build Back Better’s failure on Republicans to thundering applause.



I’m just hoping we get a bunch of good Biden gaffes out of it.

He will take credit for beating covid-19, there is still work to do and we need to get ready for the next pandemic.

He will condemn Russia Russia Russia and white nationalism linking them overtly or subtly with the American right, maga and Trump.

He will talk about protecting "our democracy" here and abroad. More Russia Russia Russia bad maga and Trump.

He will talk about protecting the right to vote and the dirty republicans trying to disenfranchise minorities. More Russia Russia Russia.

He will take credit for a strong economy but we have more work to do. The government will spend whatever it takes for an economy that is equitable.

We're proud of our trannies.

Feel free to add

Take a drink when
He blames Trump or "the previous admin".
He confuses Ukraine or Russia with another country.
He confuses Putin with someone else.
He starts another subject in mid sentence.
You have no clue what the subject was suppose to be.
He pauses and stares into the camera with a look that says he just soiled his depends.
He says Ukraine is a member NATO. Heck you may want to chug the whole bottle at that point.

Dumpster fires, all the happy little dumpster fires.  Biden rambles, slurs his words and blames the Orange One.

I figure they will have him on whatever drugs he used for the debates in 2020. 

Honestly, I hope he doesn't fall apart.  This is a pretty big event and I don't want the President of the United States embarrassing himself during the State of the Union.  This is bigger than the normal press conferences. 

That said, I don't expect to like any of the things he manages to say.

His answer to 4 or 5 items was to "cut the cost".  Yeah, show me that law changes that do that.  If real, they probably involve cutting taxes or cutting regulations.

IMO, it was nothing more than a fluff speech.  I don't even know if he addressed that he has been in office for a year already.  It struck me that he addressed 3 or 4 issues with "We will cut the cost of XXX".  No detail at all on how that is supposed to happen.

He mentioned his SC appointee, but that was it.  You would expect him to sell her a bit, but he said very little.

Speaking of the media:

Quote
Jake Tapper
@jaketapper
In a different era, a congresswoman shouting and heckling the president at the SOTU while he was talking about US soldiers Killed In Action — and was about to invoke his own dead son — would be widely condemned across the political spectrum. Starting with her caucus leader.

https://twitchy.com/sarahd-313035/2022/03/02/pathetic-jen-psakis-excuse-for-joe-biden-leaving-13-dead-us-troops-out-of-sotu-is-almost-worse-then-the-omission-itself-video/

He's referring to Biden being heckled. Interestingly, when Trump was heckled, there was no condemnation from anyone on the left, including the caucus leader that ripped up Trump's speech.

My POV is that there shouldn't be any heckling during the SOTU address by or against any party. There are other venues for disagreement. It seems like turnabout is fair play though, if for nothing else than to see more evidence of MSM bias.

Also, Psaki said Biden "didn't have time" to mention the 13 dead soldiers. Bullshit.

She's a black woman - what more do you need to know?  ;/  He probably wanted to say something about her being the first black lawyer-woman that's bright and articulate and clean, but they told him not to.

Now that I think about it, the Party probably realizes that the less she's associated with him, the better.

I caught one statement in the speech that I still have issues believing. Some where in there he stated 30% of inflation was caused by automobile prices. I do know that used auto prices are up by about 30% but I am not sure how that relates to being 30% of the total inflation. I haven't heard anyone refuting it yet though. So, can one market item cause an equal overall inflation rise?
