There was not a single new idea in this speech. This was warmed over campaign rhetoric. And he didn’t even deliver it well. He stumbled more times than I have ever heard him before. It was all platitudes about American can-do, promises that our government would take care of our all problems, and that we wouldn’t have to pay for it, we could simply tax the rich for all America’s needs. This was a disappointing performance.
