Democrats send message with signage [Schadenfreude! pic from SOTU]
Politico ^ | 3/4/2025 | Nicholas Wu

Several dozen House Democrats are holding up small circular signs during the joint address in protest, reading “Musk Steals,” “Save Medicaid” and “Protect Veterans."

The signs were distributed by the Congressional Progressive Caucus, according to a person with knowledge of the strategy, with the messages intended to keep the focus on Trump’s policies.

House Democratic leadership had stressed to lawmakers to present a solemn response to Trump rather than taking the bait. Lawmakers have mostly responded been silently waving the signs at Trump and Republicans during the speech.

If they were trying to whip up support for their cause it was an epic fail.

Responded silently?
They had to throw screaming maniac Al Green out of the place.
Most disgusting, disruptive spectacle ever in the US Capitol.

These democrats just don’t belong in a democratic republic style govt that promotes freedom. Their kind belongs in a socialist hell hole like Cuba.

The look so stupid. Some are holding signs that say ‘Musk Steals’ while their colleagues are holding signs that seem to rebut them with, ‘False.’

It just looks so childlike.

That's it?

THAT is the "distinguished competition"?

The Democrats are worse than pathetic. They really think they're winning over people with their ridiculous little signs.
