This isn't a complete solution, but joining groups for interaction is a start. Book clubs, game clubs, sports, movie clubs, whatever it is as long as it's social and in person. Put up a flyer on community noticeboards for an activity you like, alternatively.

Volunteering can also help. Being part of a community, being seen and contributing can make all the difference to starting the process.

This isn't a solution to depression or any mental health issue. It's a possible way to begin creating connection though.

What are some of best monologues or speeches you've seen on TV?

I think that's an uncharitable take on his position. He's criticising bush era wars like in Iraq and implying the second world war, which is very much a moral war for the USA.

He is invoking a romanticised past but that's his whole character arc - believing in the America that could be, that ostensibly was, and how far they've come from their values.

The connection to MAGA is superficial. His speech is properly quixotic- designed to inspire the best in national identity, even if it's foolish
