18m12s speech = 1812 = V for Vendetta = awakening the masses apparently

President Trump spoke from 9:19 to 27:31 tonight on the official White House stream, now archived. Quick math means the speech was 18m:12s long. 1812 is a pretty interesting number, especially since the War of 1812 was the last time America fought a foreign standing Army on its own soil, and a major theme of President Trump's "12/17 Address" was the invasion facilitated by the Biden administration and "their allies in Congress" over the last 4 years. The 1812 Overture also happens to be one of the musical pieces associated with the movie "V for Vendetta". In the opening scenes of the film, the protagonist 'V' uses the public emergency siren system as the conduit to blare the Overture at midnight on the 5th of November in the movie timeline, rousting the sleeping population from their slumber at the precise moment one of the buildings/monuments to the tyrannical regime is destroyed in an explosion, sending fireworks throughout the sky.
