An empty seat to match the empty suit at the empty podium.

The person who gets to do the rebuttal should have multiple empty seats:

One for the Libyan embassy employees Hillary Clinton left for dead.
One for all the black Americans in Chicago killed by gun violence from other blacks,
One for all those killed by illegal aliens, the type that Democrats believe should get amnesty.
One for the Iraqis and Afghanis killed because Obama pulled out American troops.
One for the undermanned American troops Obama left in.
One for all the jobs that left the country after Obama moved into the White House...

If Republicans had a spine they’d seat Clint Eastwood right next to it. But seriously, doesn’t Congress make the rules about who gets what seat? I mean, it is their chamber.

How about an empty seat for the 3,000 babies killed per day by abortion?

Not good enough. To honour the victims of abortion, they'd have to empty the whole room.

So what do all the full seats represent then? People who were SAVED by guns?

And I believe The empty seat represents his leadership, not gun violence victims

He’s trying to turn around what Clint Eastwood did to humiliate him with the empty chair- Dear leader can’t even come up with an original thought it seems

No empty seat for the brave men and women killed in Afghanistan under his feckless leadership.

The worst part is the empty suit doing the speaking.
