President Donald Trump is delivering an address to a joint session of Congress on Tuesday as he forges ahead with enacting his domestic and foreign policy agenda. Follow here for the latest live news updates and watch the speech live.
I thought the reason for trashing trade agreements and taking a wrecking ball to the Canadian economy with extreme tariffs was because of fentanyl coming from Canada at the border?
Apparently not, says Trump, from his speech at Congress tonight: “… Tariffs are about making America rich again and making America great again”.
I didn’t watch it. I just can’t listen to him speak for more than about 30 seconds. The gibberish and gish-gallops are just too much for me to handle. I usually try to find a transcript after the fact.
I purposely didn’t watch it knowing I would get better results from a summary. Like this quote from him that tariffs was about making America rich again (not about fentanyl) was all I needed to hear tonight. The rest is screaming noise.

Transcripts are a better use of one’s time.
