WASHINGTON — President Trump claimed credit for a “great American comeback” in a speech to Congress on Tuesday night, boasting of a robust economy, contrasting his successes with the records of his predecessors and projecting optimism in the face of a monthslong Democratic effort to force him from office.
Mr. Trump, who lamented what he called “American carnage” when he was inaugurated in January 2017, described a different country today, declaring in his third State of the Union address that the nation’s future was once again “blazing bright.”
“In just three short years, we have shattered the mentality of American Decline and we have rejected the downsizing of America’s destiny,” Mr. Trump said in a speech that lasted 78 minutes. “We have totally rejected the downsizing. We are moving forward at a pace that was unimaginable just a short time ago, and we are never, ever going back!” ....
in a remarkable moment — awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom to Rush Limbaugh , the combative conservative talk radio host and for decades a villain to the left.
Standing next to Mr. Limbaugh, who recently learned he has advanced lung cancer, Melania Trump, the first lady, draped the medal around his neck as Mr. Trump thanked him for “decades of tireless devotion to our country.”

Rush is expected to be on the radio tomorrow, Thursday. You know he’ll be fired up like never before.
Cutting taxes, slashing regulations and freeing energy resources. All done by Trump. None of which could have, or would have, been done by Democrats and most Republicans.
I am so delighted to hear that. After seeing him last night I was beginning to fear that he might not make it back on. But sadly, I have to go to a funeral with 11:00 a.m. and will not be able to get back to the radio until probably closer to 1:00. Just darn!
Rush was really touched. Heard a lot of screens got blurry.
He was concluding the first segment of the obamian hoax by demonstrating success, something the Dems could not do over their 8 years of Obama.
I believe he has buried the death to America culture of the Obama regime by his success driven, results delivered and demonstrated program.
I'll bet Michelle and Obama were throwing lamps at their new MV mansion.
I think you can catch a repeat of the show on Youtube. ..they’re kinda of hard to find. ..but you can. ...wait till Friday. ...or perhaps they are on Rush’s website. ..
He, like most of the US citizens, are ignoring the bs.
After the aquittal, I hope the republicans break Nancy’s pens in half!
Democrats not happy at all because they have gained so much power and money on their American decline game plan.
The plantation has been plowed under and new growth starting.
Or perhaps The Turtle will tear up the Articles.
Mark Stein said that Rush is now expected back Friday. ..Rush has doctors visit tomorrow, Thursday. ...
Yes. OTOH,Trump Claims End of ‘American Decline’ While Avoiding Mention of Impeachment in State of the Union. . . and putting the president’s imprimatur on Rush - who has been an outspoken critic of Schiffpeachment - actually is a reply to impeachment.
