"Who knew that a State of the Union address would feature more medal ceremonies than the Winter Olympics?
"OK, it just seemed that way. But the made-for-TV award-aganza – incredibly including, twice, America’s top military honor – was just one feature of perhaps the most spectacular event of its kind ever.
“ 'Spectacular” in the word’s original sense, “of the nature of a spectacle or show.” As in:
- The bombastic beginning: “Our nation is back. Bigger, better, richer, and stronger than ever before.”
- The theatrical call-in of the Olympic champion U.S. men’s hockey team, followed by the stunning announcement that its goalie would receive the nation’s top civilian honor.
- Honoring another American war hero whose believe-it-or-not 100th birthday will fall squarely on America’s 250th.
- A waitress reaping thousands in tax savings from the One Big Beautiful bill, and an infertile couple realizing YUGE Trump RX (“I didn’t name it that”) discounts for IVF.
- A Houston mom outbid on 20 homes by investment firms, a practice targeted by a Trump executive order.
- A new “Somali pirate”-inspired War on Fraud initiative to be led by VP JD.
- An adorable five-year-old, recovered from a collision with an illegal alien truck driver granted a commercial driver’s license, whose name will grace a proposed law barring the practice.
- Heartbroken mothers of a cheerleader slaughtered in a bathtub by another illegal, and a Ukrainian refugee slashed by a troubled career criminal.
- A beautiful teenager whom school officials tried to transition to a boy while hiding that effort from her parents.
- The grieving but unbowed widow of the martyred Christian conservative, Charlie Kirk.
- Topped off by the heartstring-tugging reunion of a just-released Venezuelan political prisoner with the niece seeking his freedom.
"But the chief executive’s oration was equally spectacular in achieving its dual objective: rebuilding the Republican brand for the all-important midterm elections while blunting the Democrats’ recent momentum in denting Trump’s Teflon armor.
"The president’s strategy on the former: overwhelm his nationwide audience with his extraordinary accomplishments in one short year." . . .More...
"Yes, this is a man who’s been to hell and back, and he came before the American people on a very focused mission. That mission was to lay out the progress he and his team have made to undo the colossal damage from the Biden regime while also mapping out what comes next to Make America Great Again."
