The Liar-in-Chief is going to squawk and blab and emit some sort of guttural mishmash from the front of the disturbing grimace that passes for a face tonight. I don’t know why anyone would want to tune in. Don’t we already know what the gist is?
He’s gonna whine and complain and accuse and try to weave some tale of woe about voter fraud and how the Save America Act will right all perceived wrongs—at least as they rattle around in his damaged brain.
He’ll drum up some irrational fear, eviscerate people in his own party, berate and demean Democrats and minorities. Maybe he’ll threaten to sign a couple more Executive Orders banning the flashing lights and arms that drop at railroad crossings when a train is coming, or traffic signals at busy intersections. It’ll be the usual parade of tactics and heavy-handed verbiage and hair-brained nonsense that we should all be treating with a grain of salt by now.
If it’s delivered in front of Congress, half the room will be standing and cheering, while the other half will be embarrassed and enraged. If it’s from the Oval Office, the gold leaf will begin to tarnish of its own volition, and the gaggle of sycophants off-camera will be flashing him thumbs up and mouthing “You’re doing great!” Or maybe they’ll be looking at the floor and questioning their life choices and wishing they had shoes that fit.
Either way, some will still find it to be Must See TV, though I’m not sure if all the networks will actually be airing it. No loss if they don’t.
We should know one thing, though: the assault on our right to vote on November 3 and beyond is likely to be kicked up a notch or three tonight.
