I didn't watch the State of the Union last night. For all kinds of reasons.
If I had watched it, I'd have played a drinking game or ten. "Shots When He Lies" wouldn't have gone well, since my tolerance is pretty low lately. Perhaps "Shots For Every Superlative" would have worked, or "Take a Drink When Republicans Cheer With Hypocrisy." I don't know. I'm not much of a drinking game type.
The morning after the speech, however, as I comb the newspapers and grit my teeth over the coverage, gives plenty of opportunity for a Bingo game. A "Spot the Hot Take" Bingo Game.
Here are the perspectives I anticipate seeing:
- This Just Shows How Divided We Are.
- They're Not Lies; They're Just Misleading
- Does Anyone Remember Decorum?
- Look, We Can't Possibly Fact Check All of This; Our Viewers Can Make Up Their Own Minds
- The President "Calls Out" Things (That May or May Not Be True)
- They're Not Lies; They're Exaggerations
- This is all the Democrats' Fault
- He Laid Out an Ambitious Agenda, But Can He Deliver?
- Like Him or Not, He Does Have a Mandate
- If Liberals Hadn't Been So Obsessed With Pronouns...
- If We're Doomed No Matter What, What do You Care?
- ...Oh, Look At this Shiny Thing We'll Dangle In Front of You Instead!!!
