0:00.0	So last night was Joe Biden's big state of the union address and the stakes were high because
0:04.7	after all, this is a very closely fought election. The president of the United States is ailing.
0:09.7	He has been trailing in the polls to Donald Trump, his arch nemesis. And all he really had to do
0:15.1	was be alive and be normal. He did the first thing. He couldn't do the second thing like at all. And one wonders
0:22.4	what exactly his team thought they were doing when they wrote the State of the Union address,
0:26.7	which was extraordinarily divisive, really polarizing, really quite nasty. Did they think that
0:32.8	the only way they were going to get him energetic enough for the speech was to ramp him up
0:36.5	so high that they could not ramp him back down. Whatever cocktail they used, to awaken him, did they use too much? Whatever it was, Joe Biden's State of the Union address last night was, I think, for him, a disaster in the making. Not for Democrats. Democrats are pretending they love the thing. And they were always going to pretend that they loved the thing. Members, the media were always going to use words like feisty, energetic, combative.
0:57.1	That was a foregone conclusion. But if you were the median voter, the person who's deciding
1:01.2	between Joe Biden and Donald Trump, and you watched Joe Biden last night, did that make you think
1:06.0	our country is in the best of hands? Or did it make you think angry old man screams at clouds and also thinks
1:13.4	many, many Americans are terrible people and also has his priorities totally screwed up?
1:18.2	Because I think there are a lot of independents out there. We're going to look at what Joe Biden did
1:21.0	last night and how he acted and say to themselves, if they were trying to offer a contrast
1:25.8	between crazy Trump over here and solid,
1:29.7	solid Joe over here, that missed.
1:32.3	Attitudinally it missed.
1:33.8	Politically it missed.
1:35.2	I want to get to that in a moment, but I think first we have to set the stage for the
1:37.6	state of the union dress.
1:38.3	Let me explain where we are in American politics at this point.
1:41.7	It's a damned clown show.
