Trump's State of the Union changed history on Tuesday night – Here's what Pelosi must've felt
Fox News ^ | February 06 2019 | Newt Gingrich

Posted on 02/06/2019 11:12:34 PM PST by knighthawk

Every once in a while a speech is so effective and powerful it changes the trajectory of history.

President Trump’s 2019 State of the Union address was that kind of speech.

If you have not seen it, you should watch it online. Reading it will only convey 10 percent of its power. It was the interaction of the president with the members of Congress and the audience in the galleries that was so compelling.

She knew that her strategy blew up in her face when the POTUS was talking about the abortion issue after he finished talking about the little angel who was from St. Judes. The look on Pelousy’s face conveyed it powerfully.

It was the singular most brilliant SOTU speech I’ve ever seen. President Trump controlled the room. So help me, he’s better than Bill Clinton or Ronald Reagan.

But Newt’s crazy if he thinks the ‘rats will change one bit.

Yes. They don’t hate Trump so much as they fear him exposing their crimes. Fear is causing the hate in my opinion.

Would've been more powerful if her head had done a 360 and she'd spewed pea soup.

You are correct, the hard core left will not change. But they were not the ones the speech was directed at.

It was directed at those in the mushy middle who only get their news their the filter of the left wing media.

He will convert some of those which will weaken the Democrats and strengthen the Republicans.

I was waiting for schmuckie to do that, or sprout horns or something.

This was most definitely THE best SOTU I’ve ever heard in my life, and the best I’ve ever heard from President Trump.

It was a great speech except for the pandering to the murderous women in white, although that pandering caused them to show their true, narcissistic colors.

The thing from SOTU about Pelosi that defines her so well was her permitting Dems to stand and cheer when POTUS made his observation about the number of women in Congress. She absolutely runs that show... even some Dem senators say that she controls them

Pelosi is so stupid. Did you see her after his speech? She says, “He said that there’s more women in Congress than ever before, he didn’t realize that the majority are democrats!”

Of course, he knew that, you twit. That’s why he said it.

I agree. My brother, a Never Trumper, wouldn’t waste his time watching it. I told him it was the greatest SOTU speech in my life time. I know this, for sure, why?

Because I keep thinking about it.

Just when you thought, “My Gosh, he’s bringing up all these things his administration has done. Man, that’s cool.”

Then he brings up something like the border and ICE.

And you think, “Man, he’s not backing down tonight.”

But he keeps going, and he brings up the abortion issue head on! And you start to squirm in your seat a little, because he’s graphic.

You thinks is over...but nooooooooo. He goes after them with the socialist thing. “This country will never be socialist!” I can’t believe he said that!

And he schmoozes them, gets them to stand, then WHAM hits him with something between the eyes, that makes them sit like they’ve just sat on a pine needle.

And did you see Steny Hoyer? He’s applauding like mad....

THE MOST COMPELLING THING, HOWEVER, FOR ME WAS THE REALIZATION THAT “THIS GUY REALLY BELIEVES WHAT HE’S SAYING!”

***Pelosi is so stupid***

She and Occasional Cortex define the Democrap Party: Rule by Stupidity... and their lackey MSM works tirelessly to make it appear glamorous...

"This was a speech that changed the trajectory of history."

The speech will be forgotten about by February 15 when every type of "political identity faction" starts fighting for "their" tax payer fueled, petro dollar fueled (Competition is threatening that), and most importantly as far as implosion goes, debt fueled gibsmedats.

Heck, Schiff yesterday maintained the dems' pre-speech trajectory loud and clear thumbing his nose at Trump while the media was in enamored at the dem's partisan antics as usual. Fine speech and that is all, Gingrich's hyperbole is embarrassing.

Don’t forget the Never Trumpers and people like Ann Coulter, who now calls the president a coward, lazy, a lunatic etc. In fact, she went to bed early rather than watch the thing.

She’s gone in my book, finito. SHe’s on someone show, I’m turning the channell faster than I do than when Juan Williams speaks, or the fat balded egg head that comes on Laura’s show now and then and keep telling us that the economy is Obama’s.

I derived pleasure by thinking of it as a Trump Rally which DC swamp things had to attend. Trump FINALLY got his voice back. Don't give ONE INCH on the strongly held Deplorable Agenda.
