Summary of Trump’s speech to the UN today:
1. Your countries all suck.
2. None of you know what you are doing.
3. The US is better at everything.
4. All because of me.
5. I’m right about everything.
6. You should listen to me & do what I say.
7. And give me lots of awards.

I'm so embarrassed to be an American right now. Donald Trump is a senile old codger, standing before the United Nations, reading a speech clearly written by an alt right lunatic and a bunch of oil and gas lobbyists. Well done, U.S. voters. You really fucked this one up.

This speech is such an extraordinary combination of lies, delusions, narcissism, hatefulness, ignorance and lunacy that it could have been given by no other person than the president of the United States. It could well be the low point of US public diplomacy in our history.

I’m glad he gave this speech.
Pace slowed down, minus the blasting music and pyrotechnics of a campaign or Charlie Kirk funeral/rally, it was just an enfeebled old man droning on about his hatreds and how he is the indispensable leader.
He presents as a figure with whom we might be sympathetic, except that he has a large following and the nuclear codes.

Everyone inside his echo chamber will hail the speech as "perfect", "beautiful", and "the best speech in the history of the UN".
Anyone outside the echo chamber, who sneers at the speech, will be added to the enemies list.

How could this speech be labeled anything other than "Old man yells at clouds"?
