America was always going to go down the gurglur.
Trump is just softening the blow.
The only way he'd soften the blow is if his rotund physique was used as an airbag, otherwise, he's hitting the "gas", or accelerator if anything.
This address came as a desperate attempt to keep support within his party. With the Dems gaining control of the house, the Republicans are the only thing preventing him from being impeached.
If enough of them, especially those up for re-election, are feeling it with this shutdown, which they are, his job is at risk.
This is why he was lying so very much about this being the Democrats fault, even though he's on record, with video evidence, saying he'd shut down the government and take the blame if he didn't get his wall.
This is all on him, it needs to be screamed from the rooftops.
This is the closest to accountability that he's faced, and to use the address to the nation for such blatant political purposes
shows that even he's worried.
You nailed it right there.
speech.
He's worried alright.
