Listening to NPR this morning, where they described it as a “wide-ranging” speech and mentioned specific topics like Iran and impeachment but carefully omit the insane stuff. This is one way the media strives to present Trump as a normal President.
You can listen to the clip here: it’s unclear how the media should cover this in a way that stops short of saying that the President seems unwell
This sort of normalization works to Trump’s advantage for the majority of voters who are not closely observing politics. Via @brianklaas washingtonpost.com/opinions/2020/… 
@brianklaas Quoted in this thoughtful @ThePlumLineGS explanation of why "the media’s failure to adequately convey just how deeply corrupt and absurd Trump’s explicitly stated positions" serve to help him politically. washingtonpost.com/opinions/2020/…
