...uncouth, uneducated, unbelievable.

A big fat nothing, as far as the American people are concerned.

What most folks will watch for is the latest Trump remark dragging the country down another peg or so. I wonder what part(s) of our nation he'll trash tonight?

give those poor Billionaires a break?

Or will he only talk about how great he is and that he won the election and Hillary lost and she didn't really win the popular vote.. 'cause "illegal votes"?

Will the level of stupid break the meter?

..much like every other president (although I expect Trump's contribution to it will be limited to predictable points of praise for himself).

I read Pres. Obama's speech writer's account of how he'd work the president's ideas into an address, and how involved the POTUS was in the process. We'll likely see nothing of the sort.

That's not to say that it won't contain the same inanity that Trump likes to parrot and invent. The entire Trump entourage reasons and expresses themselves like klansmen, so whatever they produce for him (and gets his approval) will have the same stench.

Is the drinking game how many times he blames President Obama for the horrible state of our country?

Be selective of applause lines and not hold back when asked by media to comment on Trump and other Russian traitors.

Someone should yell "Liar" just as they did for President Obama. Will some of the Supremes skip this, like they did for President Obama's SOTU? I will not watch. I can not watch or listen to this uncouth, ignorant, orange oaf mangle the English language. Will first lady Ivanka sit on the stage behind him, ready with his meds? What she needs is a stun gun for this dumbass.

...folks attach appropriate or related #(subject) in the body of their twitter post and they get grouped along with others who use the # in their post.

Twitter is a more in-depth, timely, and targeted google, when used efficiently.
