Trump’s GREAT BIG LONG Speech

from Americast Hosted by BBC News

Sarah and Anthony pick apart Donald Trump’s biggest speech since returning to the White House. He delivered it 24 hours after announcing he was pausing aid to Ukraine, and on the same day tariffs came in on Mexico and Canada. He was addressing a joint session of the US Congress, declaring “the American dream is unstoppable”. It was the the longest presidential speech to Congress on record - lasting around an hour and 40 minutes and included details of a letter from President Zelensky, his desire to get Greenland “one way or another” and Elon Musk’s DOGE cuts. And, a Democrat is kicked out.
