Almost Hilarious
The Democrats really blew it — again.
In addition to their usual smug lack of decorum, afterward they provided “a Democrat response” that was beyond cliche’. Stupid meaningless nonsense about “joining together” mixed with clueless complaints about “factories closing” (during one of the biggest economic booms in the country’s history). Of course,the usual rambling about “racism, diversity, and a woman’s right to choose.” Almost cringeworthy.
My favorite part of the President’s speech was his proclamation that the U.S. Will “never be a socialist country.” One could certainly expect the likes of Bernie Sanders and the Cortez Jacobin to sit stoically but, revealingly, most Democrats apparently shared their stance — no big surprise.
Trump could have botched the whole thing and Democrats could have politely applauded when references were made to great economic strides etc. but no, nothing could have been more opposite from either side. The speech was sober, disciplined and somewhat inspiring. The Democrats’ response during the speech and afterward, pathetic. The media will have trouble spinning this one.
