Was Trump's SOTU A Total Disaster? + A Look Back At My Conversation with Ally Sammarco

Today on Mea Culpa, I’m revisiting a conversation with Ally Sammarco, political strategist, consultant, and content creator, to look back at Trump’s speech before Congress one year ago, and why it offers critical insight into his State of the Union address this week. Together, Ally and I broke down the dangerous patterns in Trump’s rhetoric, governing style, and reliance on fear and spectacle, and it reveals how little has actually changed. This look back puts the current moment in context, showing what Trump signals to his base, how he frames power, and why revisiting these warnings matters now more than ever.
