We need "media figures" who speak in short, direct, unambiguous sentences...like Joy Reid.
Trumps nearly 55-minute address to the United Nations General Assembly both appalled and raised fears about his sanity from some political observers,
with notable former MSNBC host Joy Reid cutting to the chase and writing on Bluesky: Are y'all listening to this Trump speech? This dude is out of his fking mind.
The address, which was slated to last only 15 minutes, was marred by a teleprompter that didnt work initially, which led the president to bitterly complain about the inconvenience.
While speaking to the silent audience, the president lamented that he hasnt gotten enough appreciation for his efforts, complained that allies aren't backing him, asked why the UN even exists, and touted personal achievements in the U.S. that would be of little interest to foreign diplomats.
Former State Department spokesperson Ned Price offered, Let's not pretend this is a foreign policy speech or dignify it by calling it one. This is basically MAGA madlibs. Trump is speaking to his political base, hitting each of his campaign trail hits, while addressing a room of leaders who'd rather be just about anywhere else.
