Lots of stuff that eventually came up, started off largely on economics, transitioned to an Olympic love fest for about 10 minutes there on hockey.
And then very typical of what we warned about on State of the Union, a lot of box checking.
Everything was bullet points.
You had the immigration section, you had voter I.D.,
There was some stuff on foreign policy.
We're going to start with that there in a second, then kind of wrapping it up by lots of medals.
The sound guy here, he goes, is it normal to hand out so many medals in a state of the union?
We're like, no, it's not normal.
But you know, 50% of the speech was like various awards.
A very large percent of the speech was handing out medals.
I'm going to make an annoying point.
Have you followed the Wuthering Heights discourse about how it's a movie for TikTok?
Yeah.
It's a movie for TikTok.
Meaning you're stringing all of these scenes together because you want them to become part of the clip universe.
That's what Say the Unions are now.
Because you're trying to check a box for every different cohort.
And then you know it's going to get targeted in this place, in this place, in this place.
And so that's where the speeches, I think at least from Trump's perspective, are getting longer.
Because then you have more, like you can put the metal stuff out.
