Gaslighting the Union: Trump’s Long, Wrong & Boring Speech to Congress

In this episode, Alex breaks down President Trump’s record-breaking 1 hour and 47 minute State of the Union, exploring how it played less like a policy roadmap and more like a midterm campaign spectacle. He examines Trump’s confrontations with Democrats, selective omissions on immigration and economic anxiety, brief remarks on Iran, friction with the Supreme Court, and the growing tension around the State of the Union as a democratic ritual.
