Today's Tiedrich rant: if I wrote Joe Biden's State of the Union speech



Link: https://www.jefftiedrich.com/p/if-i-wrote-joe-bidens-state-of-the-6ac

Madam Vice President, Mister Weird-Ass Porn-Obsessed Speaker, our First Lady and Second Gentleman, members of Congress and the Cabinet, Justices of the Supreme Court, my fellow Americans —

now, before we start: hey Marjorie Three Toes — try to keep your braying to a minimum. this is supposed to be a solemn occasion. and you, Handy Oakley — try not to fall out of your dress. this isn’t Beetlejuice the Musical. both of you, sit the fuck down and shut the fuck up. nobody wants to see a repeat of your disgraceful behavior from previous years. you’re government officials and grown adults. it’s time to act like it.

ok, on with the show. the state of our union is … pretty fucking awesome.

three years ago, I inherited an utter shit-show. the worst pandemic in a century. the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression. the worst attack on our democracy since the Civil War....

Oh my gosh I love this! Jeff Tiedrich spins out a huge amount of praise for Joe Biden's accomplishments. And I agree, this would be an awesome State of the Union speech. Let's see if this lines up with Biden's address to the nation tonight.

I'd bet Biden would like to give Tiedrich's speech, and maybe add to it. I know I would.

5. Edit out the more colorful expletives, that's the best SOU speech Biden could ever give.

That speech would take its place in history along with "Four score and seven years ago..." and "I have a dream..." His approval ratings would skyrocket.

Edited to correct typo.

magat/traitor heads would be exploding everywhere. It would be fun to watch, but would need a hazmat team to clean up.

Just reading that speech was a delight.

I just shared this with just about everyone I know.

It's about time people in this country know what's really going on, and stopped listening to this insane culture war crap the "liberal" media is shoving down their throats.

This should be nailed to every evangelical churches door, (or can't you drive nails into solid gold?) ala Martin Luther. Fuck their christian-nationalist bullshit. As John Lennon said, "all I want is the truth now".

A magnificent screed that puts Joe Biden 's accomplishments in complete perspective.

The President was on fire and did not hold back, he blasted TFG and the fix nothing republicans and even a good shot across the bow of the Supreme Court Justices and a slap down of Margie the Misfit.
