Democratic lawmakers faced criticism this week for their behavior during President Donald Trump’s address to a joint session of Congress. Their protests, refusal to clap at key moments, and subsequent comments drew criticism from Republicans and from some in their own party.
"Jesse Watters Primetime" producer Johnny Belisario traveled to Capitol Hill to track down Democratic lawmakers and ask why they refused to stand and clap for the nonpartisan moments in the address.
"You didn't stand up for anything," Belisario noted to New Jersey Senator Cory Booker.
"The president got before the American people and didn’t talk about how he could drive down grocery prices," Booker responded.
Other Democratic lawmakers expressed frustration that Trump failed to address issues they felt were important.
When asked why she didn’t applaud for certain guests at the speech, including the mother of slain Georgia nursing student Laken Riley, Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren refused to answer.
"I did clap, when he said that the United States has supported Ukraine," Warren said.
However, when pressed on why she did not clap for Riley’s mother, she declined to respond.
Pennsylvania Senator John Fetterman acknowledged that some Democratic protests during the speech may not have been well-received.

Democrats are mean spirited fascists...
Dems public display of hate-America at the speech followed by release
of the cockamamie “dance video” reinforces Democrat political vacuity.
Lead well
With
Tearing of paper
And grimace
The Booker Booby Prize refuses to acknowledge the centrality of curbing government spending, and thus money creation, or of reindustrializing the country and removing low-skill illegals for improving the incomes of our middle and lower classes.
It is a privilege for them to have a seat in that room to begin with. Then they walked out before the President finished his speech. They forget where they are. You want to protest stay out in the street.
They should just answer “because TDS”.....after all, that’s the real reason and it would mean that they told the truth at least ONCE in their lives.
“they walked out before the President finished his speech..”
Or got kicked out for being a jackass.
not JUST fascists. remember friends, “Conservatives seek agreement while liberals demand compliance” L.Star. and their particular brand of demanded compliance comes with a “OR ELSE”.
I’m guessing Mr. Booker was silent when his guy drove grocery prices UP.
Globohomo Democrats and RINOs are today’s Red Fascists and don’t anyone doubt it.
I always say ... “It isn’t low class, it’s NO class.”
I haven’t ever met a Liberal with any class. I worked at a univ. for twenty years, and when I retired, not even a card!
I hope these parasites keep on doubling down.
I started thinking of them as monsters and calling them that a long time ago and here yet again they show their colors. They are monsters and not very cunning monsters at that.
I am not a mainstream person by any stretch of the imagination; but, I think all of that standing up and sitting down is silly. Applause isn’t far behind.
Democrats didn’t stand because they don’t stand for anything.
Style....... pink clothes, round signs, over substance.
Appearing to oppose is necessary when no real opportunity for successful opposition is at hand
The Democrats were between a rock and a hard place, which makes sense because they are hard hearted and have rocks in their heads.
“The president got before the American people and didn’t talk about how he could drive down grocery prices,” Booker responded.
The democrats never talk about how they drive up the prices aka democrat dodge ball.
Trump hasn’t been in office 60 days and they want EVERYTHING done NOW.
If you cannot stand for a child cancer survivor you are the Nazi.
