Any long political speech, no matter how it feels live, comes to exist in the public’s memory as only a handful of soundbites.
Trump couldn’t help himself. He HAD to rail against the investigations.
In so doing, he ensured the most memorable moment would be disastrous.

Trump’s insistence that rightful and appropriate investigations must be ended was so Nixonian, he absolutely ensured the coverage will be brutal.
The soaring rhetoric of these speeches dissipates like vapor. The controversies and gaffes live on.
Trump is going to seethe.

He is such a buffoonish, intellectually incurious dope, he assuredly insisted on bashing the investigations while having not one f***ing clue that Nixon did the EXACT SAME THING in his 1974 State of the Union.
Reminder: Nixon didn’t survive to deliver the 1975 SOTU.

Trump has no freaking clue that the praise he is expecting won’t be coming.
He’s going to go from overly self-congratulatory... to surprised... to simmering... to raging.
He’ll be railing against the media within 24 hours.
Give it until tmrw afternoon.
