President Donald Trump uncorked a falsehood-filled blitz during his Wednesday night address from the White House —in which he touted accomplishments and unveiled a new 1776-themed bid to help military families — but internet critics begged the MAGA leader to watch his decibels.
Trump's rapid-fire speech made dubious claims, including that he cut drug prices by up to 600 percent, and that gasoline has fallen to under $2.50 a gallon in much of the country.
But what made waves on the internet was how he delivered his factually questionable boasts — as critics asked why he appeared to be yelling.
CNN's John King noted Trump was "shouting at times. He seemed a little angry."
Journalist John Harwood chided on X, "shouting at a country that thinks he's doing a terrible job."
The Atlantic's David Frum wrote on X, "This speech reminds me of the Bass-o-matic commercial."
Andrew Feinberg, White House Correspondent for The Independent, questioned on X, "Why is he screaming?"
Atlantic staff writer Jonathan Chait chided on X, "My fellow Americans, tonight I am here to say the same things I've been saying every day, except faster and louder."
