Trump speech leaves Democrats befuddled, in ruins, with question marks
Washington Times ^ | Charles Hurt

Posted on 03/01/2017 5:26:17 AM PST by davikkm

The president opened by celebrating Black History Month. Lady Democrats wore white. Donald Trump delivered the most finely crafted speech of his political life Tuesday night in what will go down as one of the best speeches delivered to a joint session of Congress in the past two decades. He hit stirring emotional high notes. And he laid out his vision for his presidency. Mr. Trump stole the issue of affordable health care from Democrats. He unabashedly owned the fight against illegal immigration.

The only thing the DIM women-in-white didn’t have was the white pointy hats. What complete losers and petulant losers.

They booed our troops. They hissed at the mention of the wall. They booed at the idea of term limits. They laughed when the litany of disgraces of the previous administration hit them hard, and they showed their asses to the world.

Mention American Optimism and watch from the top of the chamber, and see the left side (The Republicans) standing, stomping their feet, cheering and applauding. The right side (the democrats) sitting, looking stoic and showing the world they hate America. It was a stark contrast.

I think the Rats will hit full on hysteria in 2018. They are planning on an avalanche election, where the GOP loses a lot of seats - Eric Holder said as much yesterday.

They still don’t get it - Americans agree with Trump. We agree with his speech last night, and we want action. If the Rats (and Rinos) stand in the way, it will be an avalanche in the opposite direction.

Presently, they are powerless to stop the Trump train.

If your enemy is in the process of destroying himself, don’t interfere.

Looks like they just came back from a meeting of the Women’s Auxiliary of the KKK....

The only thing the "Kook Clucks Klan" gals were missing were their vagina caps!

Good thing they left them at home. The smell in the House chamber would have been unbearable!

Watching the Democrats during his speech clearly demonstrated that they oppose patriotism, prosperity, freedom and American exceptionalism. At least they were honest.

they showed their asses to the world.


And the World shuddered, cringed, and raced to the nearest eye wash station to wash their eyes with bleach. And the World will have nightmares forever more. Because this horror has been etched into their brains permanently.

What a terrific speech. The Republicans have had NO ONE since Ronald Reagan who could rival President Trump in any way. All those RINO pukes like McVain, Linda, and the Bushes had better stop trying to undermine Trump and get with the program!!!!


They only have a voice because the Senate holds 52 Republicans and they can disrupt. After 2018 when more Republicans are elected to the Senate McVain becomes irrelevant.

On Mark’s behalf and to be fair to him and other conservatives that may not be pom pom waivers, there is no bigger fan of Trump’s than Mark Levin when President Trump advances conservative things. He’s quite outspokenly supportive in this sense.

However, he’s not a pom pom guy either. He is and will continue to draw attention to any direction that strays from the conservative path.

President Trump’s speech last night was the best address to both houses that I remember seeing in my lifetime.

The singular most powerful moment from Trump’s speech was the resounding tribute to Ryan Owens....and his grieving widow, Carynne.

A Freeper made this memorable commentary on the broken-down mechanics of the dwindling Democrats and their nowhere party.

(HAT TIP TRUTH SHALL SET YOU FREE) Democrats at Trump's speech were reluctant to stand up and applaud brave men like Ryan Owens. Their heroes are not Navy Seals killed in the line of duty. Democrats prefer thugs like Trayvon Martin and Michael Brown and traitors like Bowe Bergdahl.

What I’ve learned over the past two years is the brainwashing on the right is just as bad as the brainwashing on the left. People hear what the want to hear and see what they want to see.

Nope. Not when he’s advancing conservatism. Listen to him last night.

Question marks? More like tire marks - or skid marks!
