RE: State of the Union 2018 (No Filler Version - 25 minute cut)

in #politics7 years ago

The true version of the address.....nice one TJ. possibly could be accused of censorship but I do believe rational filtering and settling on the common denominator i.e. truth is more than acceptable. Nice job.

Sort:  

I mean, full versions of the speech are available everywhere, and I've been completely transparent about what I have cut from the original version, so I think any accusation of censorship would ring hollow. This is not an attempt to criticize Trump, though I do have my criticisms. This is merely an attempt to show strictly the policy and issue-based portion of the SOTU without the pageantry, pandering, emotional appeals and other meaningless frivolities. I think that a Trump supporter will be just as likely to enjoy this cut as a Trump detractor. It's simply a policy- and issues-based edit.

I am totally for you on this......I was only referring to stoic Trump supporters when I mentioned censorship. Being an anti-statist and a Libertarian i would like to see them all go-we can but hope.

TJ isn't really in a position to censor Trump even if he wanted to...it's not like TJ is somehow more powerful than the US government and could shut him down...

It's just a "cut the bullshit" edit.
