I’m not going to watch the State of the Union address on Tuesday night. I hope Neilsen (or whoever makes such estimates these days) will find that far fewer Americans watched Donald Trump’s State of the Union than have watched any other State of the Union in recent memory. Second, we already know what he’s going to say, because he’s already stated and restated his lies every chance he gets. If he doesn’t believe he’s my president, why should I treat him as my president and watch his State of the Union? For all these reasons, I’m not going to watch Trump’s State of the Union.
