"The president didn't seem very invested in the lies that he was telling about the economy, but he did list a whole bunch of them right off the bat. But as I say, some of the takeaway there, I think, is mostly going to be his pace and his freneticism."
"But then he ended up slowing down a lot and particularly slowing down markedly for long stretches of the speech that were essentially sort of violence porn. He talked about people being covered in blood, gushing blood, blood pouring out of things. He talked about people being on the edge of death."
"In those moments he slowed down, ad libbed a lot, and tried to give seemingly as much sort of gory detail as he could, talking about very bloody scenes."
Rachel Maddow analyzed President Trump's State of the Union address, characterizing his delivery as wound up and frantic when discussing the economy, which she labeled as lies. However, Maddow noted that Trump's demeanor changed markedly when recounting violent incidents, slowing his pace and providing graphic, gory details about injuries, blood, and brutal attacks. She described these violent segments as luxuriating in graphic detail, suggesting Trump appeared more engaged and focused when discussing violence than when making economic claims. Maddow emphasized that Trump ad-libbed extensively during these violent narratives, seemingly attempting to maximize the gruesome details presented to the audience.
