Donald Trump was given a 22-minute slot, which he then raced down into an 18-minute steeple chase kind of an address. It was not befitting either the Oval Office or the time of the year. Yelling at the country in front of Xmas decorations sent a bizarre mixed message, like the kind of calls that police departments report every year, beautifully decorated homes and trees — but with one family member breaking another one’s arm inside. Ask any cop, the domestic violence goes up during the holidays and we, the family of America, have a loony bird at the head of our collective kinship/family. He’s even worrying the medical profession and we’ll get to the pack of lies he told in just a bit. First, the doctor’s opinion. Daily Beast:
A cardiac expert has warned he is “seriously concerned” about President Donald Trump’s health after watching his “manic” address to the nation.
Dr. Jonathan Reiner, a medical analyst for CNN who served as the late Vice President Dick Cheney’s cardiologist for over 30 years, posted a series of alarmed statements on X as Trump delivered his accelerated address.
Trump sped through the 18-minute address, often taking an angry tone, and occasionally shouting the words he was reading off a teleprompter.
“The pace of this address is manic,” Reiner wrote, noting that the tone of the speech also did not match the Christmas decorations displayed behind Trump.
The president squeezed in a brief festive greeting at the end, without cracking a smile.
“I’m seriously concerned about the health of the president,” Reiner said of the 79-year-old, adding that, “No one should be happy to see the president like this. He looks unwell.”
Maybe he looks and sounds unwell because he was lying his ass off. Lincoln Square did a report on Trump’s eight big lies from his broadcast last night.
The Eight Big Lies from Last Night
Here is a breakdown of the alternate reality he screamed at us last night vs. the actual facts:
- The “Warrior Dividend” Deception: Trump asserted that $1,776 checks “were on their way” to U.S. troops. The Fact: The President does not have the “power of the purse”—Congress does. Furthermore, while he offers a one-time $1,776 payment supposedly funded by tariffs, analysts estimate those same tariffs have already cost the average American household $1,700 this year alone.
- The Prescription Price Policy: Trump claimed he has cut the cost of prescription drugs by 400%–500%. The Fact: This is mathematically impossible. A 100% price cut would mean the drugs are free ($0); anything beyond that would imply Americans are being paid to take their medicine! (ha! we wish!)
- The Inflation Myth: He claimed he inherited the worst inflation in 48 years. The Fact: While inflation peaked at 9.1% in June 2022, it had already fallen to approximately 2.4% by the time Trump took office in January 2025. Current data for late 2025 shows inflation at roughly 3.0%—an increase since he took office, which economists attribute partly to the tariffs implemented in April.
- The Food Price Fib: Trump says food prices are ‘plummeting.’ The Fact: His own Agriculture Department released a report this week showing food prices are currently rising faster than inflation. In fact, food prices have never been higher.
- The Manufacturing Mirage: He touted record factory growth. The Fact: The U.S. has seen seven consecutive months of manufacturing job losses.
- The Foreign Investment Scam: Trump provided no evidence for his claim of securing $18 trillion in investment. Even the White House website reports only $9.6 billion in investment promises—a figure that includes investments initiated during the Biden administration.
- Gaslighting on Gas Prices: Trump claimed the cost of gas is significantly lower. The Fact: While gasoline prices have seen some declines (averaging around $2.94 nationally), they are nowhere near the $2.00 national average Trump claimed.
- A Wage Whopper: Trump stated that “for the first time in years, wages are rising much faster than inflation.” The Fact: Incorrect. Real wage growth has been positive since mid-2023. Recent 2025 data shows that while wages are still rising, the gap has actually narrowed as inflation ticked back up toward 3% this fall.
Unemployment is up, which we would know if we were getting data from the Bureau of Standards each month, but instead we have to depend upon state employment and payroll statistics. There’s always a backdoor for data and the private sector will survive somehow, even if it can’t get crucial government information. Trump’s too busy building monuments and putting his name on things to bother with actual governance, you see.
When he’s gone, the demolition industry is going to be quite busy for a while.
Until everything with his stench is gone.
He’s on a chemical roller-coaster of some kind. It pumps him up for a speech or a social media posting binge, and then crashes him for a press conference the next day. I think the cardiologist has seen this before in patients that suffer cardio-vascular events in the peaks and valleys. Are London bookies taking life-expectancy bets?
if this is a family i’m pretty sure i was adopted.
