What Biden should say at his State of the Union address

The president should begin with a reminder where we were a year ago. The country had just endured the worst violent insurrection since the Civil War.

Biden should be candid: The state of our democracy remains frightfully fragile. He needs to explain the assault on democracy by authoritarians and would-be-authoritarians and debunk their attacks (e.g., democracies can’t function, there are quick fixes only a strongman can impose). He then needs to be clear that the Trumpist movement is an authoritarian cult that has spread a web of dangerous lies about everything from the 2020 election to covid-19; winked if not encouraged political violence; and sought to undermine the premise of our democracy that every legal voter should be able to cast their ballot and have their vote counted.

I would like him to say, I QUIT.
