State of Union thread

[BoSoxGal]

This is not a State of the Union.

Do any conservatives on this forum know the basics of American government?

All of that is normal. The party that isn't the president's party doesn't clap or stand for standing ovations.

President Trump is removing gang members and violent criminals. Well, there's less liberals voters already.

 

[Political Junky]

He still claims he'll restore coal miners' jobs. It'll never happen.

 

[Snouter]

Lakhota is watching CNN. That was one of their idiotic talking points.

 

[Vastator]

Doesn't look like he's relying on a teleprompter...

We already noted that. Did you read, or just go on the attack?

No it isn't. It's the joint address to Congress. Because it is the first address in a new administration. Next year it will be the state of the union.

We already have fixed the vetting.

If Trump does half the things he says.......

 

[JakeStarkey]

I loved how he ignored the democrats and walked right on by shaking hands with loyalists.

I was glad to see the supreme court there as they skipped obama's state of the Union.

SCOTUS was there, but Alito ran like a little girl.

No shit Sherlock.

 

[Eaglewings]

Not one word about him winning the election and how well he did, wow I am in shock...

 

[Preacher]

So when President Trump says people wanted someone to put AMERICANS first the democrats didn't want that? None clapped. Same thing for when he said we need to fix the inner cities. No wonder the democrats here are still throwing hissy fits look at their "leaders"

 

[francoHFW]

The president gives remarks at the invitation of the speaker of the House — in this case, Rep. Paul Ryan — and it's up to the speaker what the speech is called, says Gerhard Peters, co-director of the American Presidency Project at the University of California, Santa Barbara.

Ryan invited Trump to give an "address" and not a State of the Union speech. That's mainly out of tradition: Trump, like his predecessors in the first year of their presidencies, is assumed to be too new to the job of running the country to authoritatively describe the state of the nation. -NPR

BBC called it the SOTU. oops

You do realize that a Democrat made this thread, right?

 

[TomParks]

Democrats refused to clap for new jobs?

They refused to clap when President Trump said our work isn't done to help minorities. Go figure.

Democrats still think they own minorities
