He went to boring.
It definitely wasn't boring.
And that's that's bad persuasion.
It's not credible.
It's not funny.
I don't think any of their persuasion was funny or credible.
And this is the thing.
There's always this moment when Trump really does well, when the other side doesn't really know what to do.
And so they go with their talking points.
There is a kind of cognitive dissonance.
I mean, Pete Buttigieg on CNN was talking about how it was a terrible speech and the president lied, lied, lied, lied, lied, lied.
That's that's sort of the default.
Like, I didn't like the speech, so he must have lied.
Well, CBS News, which is normally pretty harsh to the president, maybe not since Barry Weiss took over.
I don't know.
But CBS News did a fact check.
I just saw this on X.
They fact-checked his claim that murders were down to their lowest rate since 1900.
Sounds crazy, right?
I mean, that's like a long time ago.
