It's Wednesday, February 25th.
I'm Jane Kostin, and this is What A Day,
the show that is blaming President Woodrow Wilson for why we all spent two hours watching President Donald Trump award so many medals.
From 1800 to 1913, the State of the Union was a letter to Congress.
Woodrow Wilson, a terrible person who also resegregated the federal workforce,
reinstated the in-person speech thinking, what if everyone just watched me talk instead?
God, I hate Woodrow Wilson.
On today's show,
we're up late bringing you the highlights and lowlights from the State of the Union.
Trump's speech had everything.
If by everything you mean easily fact-checkable lies.
Like this line, for example.
It was July 4th of last year when flood waters tore through a girl's summer camp in Central Texas.
One of the worst things I've ever seen.
I was there.
He was not there.
On July 4th, 2025,
he was signing his big Republican spending law debacle disaster adventure on the south lawn of the White House.
But don't worry, we got fear mongering and racism about Somali immigrants too.
He also told horrifying and tragic stories in front of the families of the people who were forced to endure them to get the audience on board with anti-immigrant diatribes.
