SOYUSpinThe State of the Union address, about to be presented by President Donald Trump, is a week late, due to the Government being closed for five.  In the shutdown showdown, the 45th POTUS blinked.  He got stared down by Nancy Pelosi, which has to tick him off not less than somewhat, especially since she didn’t have the decency to gloat.

Of course, if there’s one thing we’ve gotten used to after living under the wild, emotional swings and unprovoked rants of our plump, swaggering, Oval Office ego sausage, it’s that everything is all about him.  Always.  That’s the way it is, has been, and forever shall be.

So the State of the Union will actually be the State of The Donald.  Not the authentic condition but the extravagant hyperbole he uses as brand.  Which means we can expect to hear that the State of the Union is not orange, overweight, and bedraggled–but rather “tremendous.”  “Fantastic”  “The best it’s ever been.”  “In the history of ever.”

Here’s a leaked excerpt.

Since we have been blessed with Captain “get things done” at the helm, our Ship of State is headed in the right direction.  Finally.  After you-know-who, the guy with the phony birth certificate, tried to steer us into the rocks.  He was a disgrace.  Seriously, folks, a disgrace.  I’m much better.  I got all the good words and I know how to use them.

And this is just the start.  Major projects are in the works that will neutralize the lying, mainstream media, which cannot go a day without picking on me, like no other President has ever been picked on.  Ever.  That’s a fact.  You can look it up.

Then we’ll lock up Crooked Hillary, and her criminal cronies in Congress, and those activist judges who do nothing but obstruct our plans to Make America Great Again.  We’re not going to divulge those plans until we’re ready.  Don’t want to give them advance warning.  But you’ll see.  And you will be amazed.  Seriously, folks, huge plans.” Really good ones.

The wall will be built.  Make no mistake about that.  We will have a great, big, beautiful wall protecting our Country, from crime, and disease, and earthquakes, and hurricanes, and the measles.  And there will be no skirting of that wall.  We’re going to make ladders and shovels illegal in border-states.  Canadian borders, too.  Puerto Rico.

And we’ll have cheaper, better health care for everybody.  The best health care.  It’s easy.  You know it, and I know it.  The only reason we haven’t done it before is I’m forced to work with idiots.  People who won’t do what I tell them to do.  Trust me.  I know more than anybody else.  A lot more.  These so-called experts are passive and naive.  That’s the truth.  Everybody knows it.

It won’t be long before the yellow lines down the middle of our highways are outlined by real gold, and Double Quarter-Pounders with Cheese pop right out of your phone, and the chickens lay nothing but soft boiled eggs, and people won’t need to go on holidays, because everywhere in this great Nation will be a vacation spot.  Just wait and see, it’s going to be amazing.

Thank you, and God Bless the Soviet Union, I mean America.
