The Land of the Free is hot, but it’s not the only in vogue thing that graced Trump’s two-hour Tuesday night speech.
It’s official, the United States of America is, as President Donald Trump declared during his 2026 State of the Union address, “the hottest country anywhere in the world.”

War On Fraud
Vice President JD Vance will lead Trump’s war on fraud — a mission inspired by the Somali fraud revelations out of Minnesota.

NOT HOT
Sitting
This is wild, many Democrats have such Trump derangement syndrome that they refused to stand and clap for the US gold medal hockey team. pic.twitter.com/0i0Gbhzwkm

Insider Trading
“Did Nancy Pelosi stand up, if she’s here? Doubt it.”
LOL Trump is the funniest President of all time, zero debate.

Cheating In Elections
Congress should pass the “common sense, country-saving” Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) America Act, which would mandate voters show identification before casting a ballot in federal elections. Failure to support such popular legislation, Trump noted on Tuesday, can only mean one thing: “because they want to cheat.”
🚨 BREAKING: President Trump demands Congress unite around passing the SAVE America Act "BEFORE ANYTHING ELSE HAPPENS"

"Why would anyone not want it? YOU WANT TO CHEAT!" 🔥🔥
He's right. Saving our republic is not negotiable.
Voter ID is supported by 85%+ of Americans. DO IT. pic.twitter.com/oglnJiE43Y
Praising IVF
Remember, Trump’s desire for more American babies is good. His bragging about lower costs for in vitro fertilization (IVF), a procedure responsible for the death of more unborn babies than abortion every year, is not.
Trump bragging about making IVF more affordable. 🤮🤮🤮
— Lizzie Marbach (@LizzieMarbach) February 25, 2026
IVF from beginning to end is a sinful act & greatly harms children. It must be abolished. pic.twitter.com/q6ZuuuzT9d
Anti-Americanism
It’s no secret that Democrats hate America. They further publicized this disdain on Tuesday when they refused to cheer Trump’s declaration that “the first duty of the American government is to protect American citizens, not illegal aliens.”
HOLY SH*T. The Democrats REFUSED to stand when Trump said that the duty of the American government was to protect American citizens, NOT illegal aliens.
