Just checking in to make sure MEM is okay after Trump kicked all sorts of ass tonight and made Nancy melt down so hard she had to tear up the speech on National Television.

The Dems demonstrated over and over that they're the party of hate, and the party that hates America.

Trump funds a million vocational training jobs for the poor and minorities.
Democrats (wearing white to stand out) just scowl.
Securing our border, honoring a hispanic agent who has arrested hundreds has saved hundreds of illegals who would have died in the desert, who apprehended 200,000 pounds of drugs in the last year that would have killed U.S. citizens.
Democrats just scowl.

Record low unemployment for blacks and hispanics and women. Increasing wages for the lowest income earners, disproportionate to the highest. Millions who were on welfare and food stamps under Obama, off welfare and working. Even prisoners are finding better job opportunities than ever before.
Democrats just scowl.

Charter schools giving opportunities and future careers nationwide to kids who would otherwise be stuck in failing schools and dead futures.
Democrats just scowl.
They wouldn't even applaud for the little black girl and her mom who got in the school of her choice!

People released from jail given second chances.
Democrats just scowl.

And they sure didn't want to cheer for the returning veteran hugging his wife and children.

The only time I saw Pelosi applaud was when the exiled president Gaido was announced. Pelosi didn't cheer for Americans. She only cheered for the Venezuelan socialist in exile.

And then Pelosi had her little tantrum at the end and ripped up the printed State of the Union speech Trump had handed her as he entered. What a petty, vindictive child this woman is. Unworthy of the office, and I'm confident she won't be speaker after November. She'll either be the minority leader, or be eaten by the rats in her own party and not even have that. She is leading her party to disaster. And every one of these evil Bolsheviks deserves that fate.

At last year's State of the Union, and again at this year's, Pelosi held up the address pages high so you could see she was reading and not listening to the president. It looked like she was reading a menu.

It's a level of rudeness and contempt I've never seen in a State Of The Union address. And Pelosi and her white-clothed stormtroopers have done it twice now.
Both times, they couldn't cheer for anything good for America, they just frowned, looked at the floor. And ultimately took it a step further this year and ripped up the speech.

I passed on it as it was really just for folks like WB & yourself instead of what used to be an address for the entire nation no matter if it was a d or an r.

If you didn't watch it, how would you even know?

That's like Pelosi, Schumer, and Nadler saying it was "full of lies", but can't point out any actual lies in it.

Trump has been doing the same show for years now. Easy pass.

It looks like I wasn’t the only one to pass on Trump’s poison. Viewership of the SOTU took a nosedive this year.

Uh...

I just cited a few hours ago that over 37 million people watched Trump's S O T U, and more of them, 11.5 million, watched it on Fox than any other channel. Another attempt on your part to propagandize with negative liberal spin that doesn't gel with the facts.

SOTU viewership decline

"President Donald Trump's 2020 State of the Union address was the least viewed of his presidency.

According to Nielsen's ratings, Trump's third State of the Union address, and the Democratic response drew about 37.2 million viewers across 12 networks. In 2019, the State of the Union's audience was significantly larger with 46.8 million viewers across 12 networks, an increase from 2018's 45.6 million viewers, according to Nielsen.

Trump's highest-rated State of the Union was his first 2017 address which drew 48 million viewers.

The drop is nearly a 21 percent decrease from 2019."

Several outlets like the NYT and Newsweek are reporting a drop in viewership.

Sorry, but that page cannot be found.



But assuming that's what you cited is accurate, I suspect more people are watching it online than on television.

I'd wager a similar decline in viewership ran across Obama's 8 years of S O T U addresses. A reflection of more people increasingly going online for their news.

And regardless, Trump's S O T U speech was widely praised and very well received, even by many pundits in the liberal media. And they can watch it on Youtube and elsewhere after-the-fact if they want to.

NANCY PELOSI PRE-RIPPED PAGES TO PREPARE FOR HER DRAMATIC ONLINE RIP

 Quote:
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi apparently made tiny tears in her copy of President Trump’s State of the Union address — so that her speech-ripping moment could go off without a hitch.

As Trump introduced cancer-stricken radio host Rush Limbaugh — who received the Medal of Freedom during the speech — Pelosi could be seen grabbing the pages off the table.

Video shows her making what seemed to be a tearing motion and then placing the pages back on the table.

Photos of the sheets of paper show them face down on the table with small slits on the side, near where Pelosi would eventually rip them into pieces.

Vice President Mike Pence, who was seated next to the California Democrat, told “Fox & Friends” on Wednesday that it felt like she’d planned to rip the speech because “it felt like such an immediate moment.”

Pelosi’s office didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.



With video showing it. Which I'm sure can be found many places elsewhere.

It was still a big drop from last year according to the Nielsen ratings. And Axelrod praised the technical aspects of the speech not Trump’s usual departure from the truth. Easy pass still. I did see Pelosi memes doing her review of the speech and she looked pretty calm in them. I only read about trump’s predictable revenge filled rantings at the prayer meeting and his acquittal party. Anyone want to argue that wasn’t an actual meltdown or a shining example of republican leadership that you admire?
