While Biden was speaking in front a of a packed House of lawmakers, former President Donald Trump was busy live tweeting, sorry, TRUTHING, his own response, presumably adorned in golden pajamas.

Trump’s TRUTH’s were a picturesque display of peak era @realdonaldtrump shitposting. Over the course of 40 TRUHTS, Trump managed to shame former House speaker Nancy Pelosi for not preventing a brutal hammer attack on her husband, reprimand Kevin McCarthy for falling asleep, alledge he could somehow end the war in Ukraine in a day, whine about the release of his tax returns, and, of course, rail against Biden for, “stumbling, bumbling,” his way through the speech.

“If I ever made a Speech like this, they’d run me out of Washington, D.C.” Trump, who was literally voted out of Washington D.C. in 20202, wrote in the middle of the event. “But there’s time left, maybe he can save it.

Trump didn’t mention tech at all during his Truth storm. He did, however, criticize Biden’ spending on renewable energy sources and accused Biden of somehow destroying the supply chain, even though the massive supply crunch referenced during the event occurred during Trump’s tenure.

Trump, well known for his dashing sex appeal, had some choice commentary on his fellow Republicans’ appearances.

“J.D.” Vance is looking good!” Trump wrote. The former president gave similar praise to McCarthy, who he said was, “really good looking.”

“His demeanor is perfect” Trump added. The same couldn’t be said for former Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell.

“Mitch McConnell looks like Hell, so bad for the Republican Party!”
