America's salesman, also known as the president, addressing the nation last night, President Trump giving a rapid-fire, 18-minute crisp speech, highlighting some bright spots in his economy, like rising wages, falling energy prices, Trump emphasizing that he's still fixing the mess from the previous administration, for example. Eleven months ago, I inherited a mess, and I'm fixing it. When I took office, inflation was the worst in 48 years. Over the past 11 months, we have brought more positive change to Washington than any administration in American history. Do you remember when Joe Biden said that he needed Congress to pass legislation to help close the border? He was always blaming Congress and everyone else. As it turned out, we didn't need legislation. We just needed a new president. Yep. And after pumping up the idea that the president was losing energy, the media changed its stance. Their biggest complaint last night? His delivery was too fast, and he interrupted Greg's favorite show, Survivor. You know who interrupted primetime programming for a mile-a-minute speech? I can say with a lot of confidence that people did not want the finale of Survivor interrupted. He sound like a used car salesman. He is selling nothing but lemons. It was an angry old man shouting from the hills, shouting at the kids to get off their lawn. One exaggeration after another exaggeration after another exaggeration. Tried to convince Americans the sky is green, that trees can walk. I am not scared of that guy. This is the first time I've seen a Donald Trump I'm not afraid of. He was shouting at times. He seemed a little angry. Like, why do I have to give this speech? What? I can't believe that was the interpretation, but I want to leave the four witnesses that are about to take on this very topic. It was too quick. He was talking too loud. He had too much energy. He didn't want to give the speech. Dana, is that how you would describe it? Well, as someone who usually goes to bed before the speech was given and I stayed up, it was high energy and it was loud. And he wants to be on offense on this issue. He has a lot of successes to talk about. The border, the point he made about Biden for the last 18 months saying there was nothing that they could do about the border because Congress hadn't acted was not true. He proved it within one week. And Americans have short political memories. So reminding them about that is important. If you think back to when we would do the polls right before the election, what's the most important issue? The border being out of control. You take that one off the table. Then people are like, you know what? The prices that were too high under Biden, they're still too high. I think the best thing that the president has going for him is time. So it's December. We're going into the holidays. He gives a speech and people can argue about the speech when they go home for Christmas if they want to or they can just have a good time with their families. But he has time for some of these things to set in. So the energy production, the tax changes for businesses that go into effect in January. I don't actually think that the no tax on tips is going to have that big of an effect on the economy. But for those people saying, I feel like things are too high, all of those little pieces might add up. But over time, if you can keep this trajectory going, it takes inflation a long time to come down. He also had an interesting part in his speech where he talked about the wage increases for different types of workers. If you were a miner, if you were an oil worker, that those things were effective. I think staying on offense where they can is going to be important, getting on the field and just saying, OK, like this is the play for today. People don't like this speech. I think I didn't think it was the best speech he's ever given. And I think he loves to be off a teleprompter where he can just rip and he comes up with the best way to be conversational about things. The thing he has in his favor right now is time going into the midterms. And the other thing is he does better in front of an audience when you put him in the Oval Office or something like that. He wants to compensate for the energy that maybe the audience wasn't feeding him. But the big complaint, Jesse, we heard of the president was getting tired. Remember, they were saying on the other channels that there was, you know, he's not the same guy with the same zip, you know, the same fastball. I didn't think I was really surprised by the critiques that came out last. Yeah, like Van Jones isn't scared of him anymore. I didn't know he was scared. He's been terrified his whole life with Donald Trump. Men should never admit they're scared of other men. I hated the speech. I thought he was going to come out and look America right in the eye and say, we're going to invade Greenland. And he didn't do that. And that left me wanting. Right. And Dana said it wasn't his best speech. And I would agree in terms of the way he delivered it. But it might have been his most effective speech because you had the entire country watching and it was 20 minutes. So it's a direct injection of all of his accomplishments that the media doesn't cover. And I think it's important to get that out there. He closed the border. Transgenderism is gone. Drugs brought in by ocean are down 94 percent. He ended the Iranian nuclear program. He ended the war in Gaza. Three thousand dollar. You lost under Biden. You're gaining a thousand dollars under Donald Trump. A hundred percent of the jobs that have been created in the first year have gone to Americans and they've gone to the private sector. That's incredible. The big, beautiful bills kicking in next year. You're going to get tax cuts. You're going to get the new tax on tips, Social Security and all that stuff. But he says this is going to be the largest tax refund season of all time. And you add the military checks to the tax refunds, to all of the tax incentives that are in there for small business and individuals. Next year is setting up for one of the greatest booms of all time. He also slashed drug and pharmaceutical prices. Gasoline is down to under three dollars a gallon. We're going to set up 1600 electrical plants, lower interest rates. And the fact that you're not having all these illegal aliens pour in, housing costs are coming down. Rent's coming down. I thought it was a great speech. And none of these things the Democrats can argue with, because these are all great things for everybody in the country. You know what this was? This was a bait and switch. The media, much like Jesse, they expected something big, monstrous, exciting and new. Instead, what did he do? He just showed up. He said, hey, what are you up to? Got some time? I want to tell you what I've been up to. This is what I did last year. This is what I'm going to do next year. So we got all the people that might not have tuned in to tune in. And there was so much they had to talk about, he had to talk fast. He couldn't waste any time. The media did not attack the measurable elements, the number of illegals, the trans issue, taxes. They focus on sound and appearance, the things that they can't quantify. And that's to be expected. He rolled out dozens of practical things that have happened and that will happen. And they go, wow, he seems so sad. I'm not scared of him anymore. God forbid you actually heard what you said. I'm interested, though, in Jessica and what you just said, because that was news to me. OK, so Defense One, I think, was the first to report it. This reporter, Thomas Novelli, I don't know. President Donald Trump's 1776 checks for more than a million troops announced Wednesday comes from congressionally allocated reconciliation funds intended to subsidize housing allowances for service members, a senior administration official confirmed. So it's not from tariffs? Well, that kind of sucks. So we're not taking the money. You're taking the money from their housing and you're giving it to them. Oh, so we're stealing the money from troops and then giving it back to troops. Let's just say that if you're going to do it. It's not a bonus. It's money they were already getting. But it's a way to. Maybe we'll believe you. But the Defense Department has the ability to reallocate monies that have already been approved by Congress. This new tariff money, wherever it exists. The phantom money. That comes, that would have to come through Congress and then next year when they do the budget and everything. But the Defense Department can say, OK, well, when the when they do the budget, we'll take the tariff money and put that back in the account. That's what they can do. I see. So they're giving this out now as a Christmas bonus and they're going to replenish it with the other stuff. That it was Jessica. How dare you? I hope you are wrong. And if you are wrong, I hope you admit it.
