Owen Shroyer, a former host of right-wing conspiracy website Infowars, ripped into President Donald Trump, who pardoned him for his role in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol, after listening to Trump’s speech Wednesday night.
“This is Trump’s worst speech yet. He has to start by bashing Biden because he needs a fall guy. He then talks about stopping political corruption, 0 arrests,” Shroyer wrote on X, formerly Twitter.
The president’s long-winded year-end address to the nation was not well received by some viewers, who were left wondering what the point was.
Similar to many of Trump’s remarks, he boasted claims about his administration’s agendas, including the economy and immigration, and unsurprisingly attacked his predecessor, Joe Biden.
“He’s stuttering. Confidence fading. Can’t lie through the reality anymore,” Shroyer continued in a follow-up post. “Never heard Trump like this. Not as comfortable or charismatic as he was last night. Very telling. His base has turned. He knows it. Ego damaged. Swagger lost.”
