Yes it was very different, starting with that stupid stunt of wearing white for some dense reason no one understood. True that the stupid "my side sits while your side gives standing O's" thing is WAY overdone with every one of these speeches, but the Dems last night took that kabuki theater thing to absurd new lengths.
” wearing white for some dense reason no one understood.”
Someone should start fake news and say it was to show that Democrats stand in solidarity with the KKK.
supposedly it was a women’s suffrage thing.
“Their reaction to Trump’s speech wasn’t much different than Republicans reaction to Obama speech.”

The whole thing is kabuki theater. Congress and the President are supposed to be equal branches of government, so having the executive come down to have a platform and be an honored guest at the Capitol and give a speech that the Congresspeople are supposed to clap and cheer for no matter what is totally inappropriate. It would make Mickey MOuse look presidential.
Good for Trump for getting kudos, but this SOTU speech nonsense is always used at a tool to improve optics, and it goes for both sides. Best example is Bill Clinton (the rapist) using it to hit the reset button after his perjury/sex scandal broke in 1998. After that performance it was obvious he was going to weasel his way out of that.
The proof is in the results. Congress needs to get off its ass and start working with Trump to pass the legislation necessary to move the country forward. They have had 2 months to get their act together. Where is the legislation?
They wore white.... I thought that was a group of nurses there to support repeal of Obamacare... LOL
