Last Night

The declining behavior of the opposition party and the over the top cheering of the party in power may make for good TV, but decorum no longer exists. Dems hit a new low last night, from Al Green, to the no-shows, the walkouts, the signs and ping pong paddles. You can resist Trump, but is this the way to do it? Childish.

There’s more decorum in my granddaughter’s preschool.

That was long (no surprise), and did anyone stay up to watch Slotkin?

If Trump is successful in balancing the budget, cutting waste, getting border under control, reversing some inflation, and ending all the wars. Big ifs in my opinion but all are possible, the Democratic Party will be set back and ridiculed for the foreseeable future. The current strategy goes against the majority of Americans, they are picking fights on the wrong side of the ledger.

Poll results of the speech….surprising?

Most of what he said was good. Wasting his time on Pocahontas and the 360 year old in the social security system was a waste of time. For the next 4 years one of his talking points has to be how the democrats couldn't even unite to give a standing ovation to a 13 year old beating cancer, parents who lost their children, a gentleman who raised 40 something foster kids. They're resisting doing the right thing because they hate him. It was on clear display for the whole country last night.

Speech was a grand slam and democrats were a laughing stock with their childish signs and refusal to stand for any people recognized If Republicans didn’t stand for minorities recognized they would be called racists.The restistance is mad because closed the border, banned men in women sports,eliminated laughable foreign aid grants,etc.I think Democratic Party should consider a name change to Open Borders Trans Party.

 

[SHallguy2]

I remember democrats talking about having adults in the room. That’s over. 1.7 trillion to fix the border half way, when all we needed was a new President. Party of rip offs.

Stephen A. Smith had a great piece with Chris Cuomo last night on News Nation last night before the speech. He is definitely not a suck-up to Trump but he laid out where Democrats continue to fail. What's the definition of insanity? When you run your entire campaign and policy on Orange Man Bad, without any vision and expect a different result.

Alexrod and Steele critical of the childish actions of resistance democrats last night.Any doubt that Jeffries is a clown not a leader was eliminated

I don’t like the dumb placards or walking out. But let’s get real. This lack of decorum started with the Republicans. With the “you lie” shout at Obama’s State of the Union and the constant heckling of Joe Biden during his speech.

I don’t think it does any good. You want to sit there is silence that’s fine. But, to those crying about what happened last night, did you criticize Republicans when they showed childish behavior during Obama and Biden?

Agree just keeps getting worse and worse. Republicans stood when Obama and Biden walked into the room. Last night Dems didn’t even stand up. Then to not stand & applaud the young kid with cancer or any of the special interest stories very sad actually pathetic and childish. I get it though they are being exposed daily for taking advantage of the American people. War, border, waste, health etc…personally hope when a Democrat is elected republicans don’t repeat what happened last night. Bad look for the country, and an embarrassment to voters.

I don’t think anyone disagrees with you on that this isn’t the first time and I think we all agree on decorum. But you can’t deny, last night was atrocious on so many fronts. They took it to a new low.

A large number don’t show up
Al Green being so disruptive that he had to be removed
Refusing to stand when the President walked in the room
Elected officials walking out at different times
The placards, the signs, the tee shirts, the costumes, and the paddles
And failing to acknowledge heroes, victims of crime and a child suffering from cancer

It wasn’t just one or two isolated incidents. It was the entire Democratic contingent.

“When they go low, we go high”… Effing hilarious. Criticize Trump all you want, but they made a mockery of the institution last night.

 

[SHallguy2]

This is why I left the Democratic Party to become an independent voter who leans right more often than not. I want nothing to do with any of these people right now hope the future makes me reconsider. Republicans are bringing in bright articulate new blood. Dems need to rid themselves of Pelosi, Schumer, Warren, Bernie, AOC, Jeffries. Party is a mess in my opinion. Need to get back to their roots.

The whatabout police will be all over you,

Personally I don't care about the shouting, the signs, etc. Not applauding a 13 year old kid who survived brain cancer??? Are you kidding me?

These are the people that are proud to stick the “Hate Has No Home Here”. On their lawns. Practice what you preach.

There behavior represents everyone who voted for them their base. All the haters out there want this behavior. Thinking guys posting here do not agree with this behavior but some are hard core so who knows. If I voted democratic I would be ashamed to be represented by these jackasses. They crossed the line last night.

The problem with what the democrats did, no one is talking about the crazy speech Trump gave. Does anyone believe that Doge saved 8 million billion dollars for transgender mice? I mean we can all agree that is absolute nonsense on its face. The lies and bs that was coming out of his mouth was incredible.
