Big challenge for political pundits:

Discuss the speech the president actually gives tonight, and not the one you maybe thought you might have seen if you squinted just right.

Compare that real speech to the real world around us.

every moment happens once, just floating by wether we notice it or not. here and gone. it is up to us to grab these little slivers of time and see them and give them a nod. what a blessing it is to be given this chance. remember to take it when you can

Once again, Trump makes a mathematically impossible claim about drug prices.

"I took prescription drugs, a very big part of health care, from the highest price in the entire world to the lowest. That’s a big achievement. The result is price differences of 300, 400, 500, 600% and more."

That is a blockbuster footnote.

It would be hard to be on the receiving end of that footnote and then look in the mirror and go to work the next morning.

one of the basic problems of prediction markets that our brilliant economists clearly have not thought through is that the insider trading poisons basically everything in public life. everything is potentially untrustworthy, a set-up. the fix is always in.

I actually think the behavior of the Republicans in the audience has been more noteworthy than Trump’s speech itself.

The braying, boorish jeers and yawps of a party fully given over to fascism.

In competitive authoritarianism (US right now) there's often a "loyal opposition" that's essential to the regime. They are so wedded to "decorum," they go along with rites & rituals that help regime prop up veneer of normalcy, undermining clear view of regimes actions & aims.

Many of you are too blinded by partisanship to think of anything that President Trump could do tonight that would change your opinion of him. As an enlightened centrist, I can definitely think of one thing he could do at the podium that would make me think much more favorably of him.
