Is this the SINGLE WORST presidential response in history?
I know he holds the top 100, but this feels like the gold to me.
When Trump went to war with Iran, I watched every speech anyone in the administration gave and made a chart of every reason given for going to war

The whole segment, about the Gen Z backlash to Silicon Valley, is pretty great though, and I am pleased to be included—it includes an interview with an organizer with New York's Luddite club speaking through a robot trash puppet
