stand on end

President Donald Trump delivered what felt like an interminable litany of his alleged accomplishments over the course of an hour and 40 minutes that would make anyone's hair stand on end if they hadn't heard it all before.

Especially in its first act, as it tells the intertwined stories of Jelly Roll Morton and the early years of jazz, it offers up wonder after wonder, in songs and dances so neatly conceived and ferociously performed that in the process of blowing the roof off the building they also make your hair stand on end.

For example, if someone knocked on your door and shouted to you that there was a fire in your building and you needed to get out, your heart rate would go up; your hair might stand on end.

The result is a collection of audio stories that will send a chill down your spine, make your hair stand on end and keep you entertained.

Trump, on the other hand, is putting out an agenda that will make your hair stand on end and nobody is saying a word.
