The Democrat rebuttal to President Trump’s epic speech couldn’t have gone better – for Trump
Bizpac Review ^ | March 1, 2017 | Carmine Sabia

Democrats did President Donald Trump a favor by picking former Kentucky Gov. Steve Beshear to give the Party’s rebuttal to the president’s joint sessions speech.

The former governor, who was defeated by Republican Matt Bevin, provided a stark contrast to an energetic, charismatic president.

And, apparently, he forgot which party he belongs to.

Well, technically, it could have been "Hell, they should've just thrown Keith Ellison out there and let him go full tilt. It couldn't have been any worse."

At first, the Democrats were going to have either Hillary Clinton or Bernie Sanders deliver the rebuttal to President Trump’s address. They then decided to go with Steve Beshear instead in order to present a more youthful face to the public.

You go that right, I have listened to clips of JFK speeches and he sounds like a right wing conservative patriot. He honestly appears to have been more conservative than most republicans today!

LOL! Also Hillary is usually passed out at that time of night.

Notice that unlike every other democrat speech/event, everyone is white except maybe for the one guy on the right. Usually these events looks like a UN luncheon. This is not an accident. These are carefully staged, and the republicans do it too. I wonder why they staged it this way?

So true. The party that is waging war on whites had their congresswomen dressed in white for the State of the Union and ended the night with an old white male doing the rebuttal. Who planned this fiasco? They’re supposed to be the party of diversity, right? What, were Tom Perez and Keith Ellison too busy sneaking in illegals and refugees over the border to take time out to do the rebuttal? The fact that the Dems had to wheel out Grandpa Beshear is their acknowledgement that they know they have a serious problem with white voters. They could of easily picked someone from the Congressional Black Caucus or the Hispanic Caucus to do the rebuttal, but nope. They’re afraid of losing even more white voters. They still need to gain enough white voters to win elections even while they trash them.

He is probably an unemployed coal miner currently in job training...as a Walmart greeter.

Actually, most of them look like Walmart greeters.

The ironic thing is JFK and his brother Bobby established a secret back channel with Nikita Khrushchev, and they used it to broker the end of the Cuban Missile Crisis, so I guess it’s OK for Democrats to have secret meetings with Russians.

Too bad they didn’t let Keith Ellison do the Rebuttal. Much more representative of the Democratic party.

Beshear is only two years older than President Trump but he looks like he’s about to celebrate his 100th birthday. It’s not just Democrat women who look old and haggard before their time. Their men don’t age much better either. Being angry and bitter leftists will do that to a person. Kind of ironic that Beshear resembles Marshall Applewhite since Applewhite led a cult group and Beshear belongs to one.

Wow they must be really nervous about the white vote.

Look at the optics here.

Must think that Democrat whites are stupid.

And when I heard him utter the words “fiscal responsibility” I laughed and laughed for a good long time.
