Democrats Refuse To Applaud America Putting Its Own Citizens First
Daily Caller News Foundation ^ | February 28, 2017 | Rachel Stoltzfoos

“And they were all united by one very simple, but crucial demand, that America must put its own citizens first,” he continued. “Because only then can we truly make America great again.”

Republicans immediately stood and cheered Trump’s call, but Democrats offered little to no visual support for what some would characterize as a call for elected leaders to do their most fundamental duty — look out for the interests of their constituents.

President Trump plays it straight. There is so much power in that. His heartfelt common sense address left his most ardent haters with no argument.

Treason trials and then prison for every one of them. An example must be set.

Heh, works for me. Several of the MSM need to go as well. They have been nothing less than seditious with their constant lies.

Prediction on what the Democrat talking point will be:
“No matter what, we can’t applaud someone who colluded with Pewtin to hack our democratic institutions and election”

That won’t resonate with anyone besides the nutso left. The Russian bit is DOA with regular folks.

I guess I could say it was a great speech, which it was, but I was distracted by the Democrat Ku Klux Klan rally that broke out!

Republicans have always been for what’s best for the USA.
Democrats have always been for what’s best for themselves.

Watched CBS for first part of speech as TV was already on that channel.

CBS showed full chamber at first with Dems sitting and never applauding. Then when it became obvious that Dems were being disrespectful and not willing to MAGA, CBS only showed Repubs standing and applauding.

Switched to Fox and they showed full chamber with Dems sitting and not applauding.

Dems showed themselves to be a bunch of Keep America Communist Assholes...KACA.

Basically Trump said “raise your hand if you stand with America”... and none of the demoncrats raised their hands.

He outed them.

That's because they want Socialism or Communism more.

And, yet, the fools continue to vote for them. The day the muzzies over run this nation, in the End Days of the Tribulation, these fools, those that have survived will rule the day they supported these murdering thugs of Satan and his religion of izzlam.

I also noticed the black-robed activists and military officers didn’t do much.

Demon-rats officially flushed out — no handy cracks for the roaches to hide from the light.

I do appreciate that coven in white who sat on their asses pretty much throughout the entire speech. It made their childish petulance that much more obvious.

BTW ... boycotting the joint session is the same as raising a stink. Nope — they have no self control and the worst tin ears in political history.

Some did not trust themselves to behave civilly and thus essentially ‘chained themselves up’ by staying away. Who respects a legislator like that? They are de-evolved and barbaric.

The showboating Dems had this “be grateful I showed up glare” about them....refusing to even acknowledge Trump’s emphasizing his governance “for the people.”

Looks like more defections by Dem voters is in the cards.

Even vikings could be civilized enough to be polite to people they intent to murder. Even cannibals can be more politic.

Fascinating how devolved the DNC has become. Sub-barbarian — even sub-primitive.

Yep, their communist horns are showing. Not only that, but even a communist puts his nation first.

Unwilling to put your nation first? It was hard for all but the most extreme of us here at the forum to comprehend that kind of thinking. Of course we all ended up well ahead of the curve, but this is a mind-boggling revelation to low-info patriots.
