Surprise! WH says tonight's speech will blame ongoing affordability crisis on Biden! [View all]

They are "leaking" this to CNN, who is running it in their chyron. Trump will also defend tariffs. Left unsaid is that this blaming and defending will be done with lies. That is what makes trump's SOTU different than any other President's in history.

So my enduring question is WHY WOULD ANYONE SUBJECT THEMSELVES TO THIS?
