In my analysis of autocrats who engage in genocide and initiate wars their rhetoric emphasizes facts and they promote themselves as experts who are powerful; they minimize candidness and use little positive emotional tone. Consider in terms of the DJT speech last night.

10 years of cost, red tape, business closures, lost opportunities, emboldened prejudice, national insecurity and social division. A total waste of our time, resources and patience. But refusing to face up to that has been the most dismal part. Political cowardice and dishonesty on an epic scale.
