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.

That moment put tears in my eyes.

As did Laken Riley’s mom and sister.

And Corey Comperatore’s wife and daughters.

And announcing the excellent high school senior has been accepted to West Point.

I had to keep wiping my eyes.

What a speech! That is one for the ages. Haven’t seen or heard anything like that since Ronald Reagan.

They used a shotgun on their feet not just a .22. Can’t even support a young man with cancer, widows, moms of deceased kids. Not a good look.

The Democrats looked pathetic and petty. Sitting there looking glum and angry. Holding up their little signs, yelling to disrupt Trump. They have no ideas, no leaders, no credibility. The party should just disappear.

They embarrassed themselves and everyone who ever voted for them by acting like spoiled little children who are told no for the first time. The glaring looks of pure evil and hatred was a site to behold. They even cast those looks at little children and widows.

That was a sad bunch tonight. Trump just called them out shamed in front of the whole country. It was long overdue.

Instead of behaving like elected representatives, they act like protestors for hire with professionally made signs.
