Before I get to the embarrassment of the nasty, bitter State of the Union display by the Democratic Party, let me lead with great news.
First, the jobs front. Wednesday morning saw the release of ADP/Moody’s Analytics private payrolls report. New job creation exploded once again under President Trump. Businesses added 234,000 jobs in January versus an expected 185,000. Manufacturing added 12,000 jobs and construction 9,000 new jobs - in a traditionally slow month. WOW.
Secondly, the numbers from Trump’s State of the Union. Fox News had the biggest audience for a State of the Union in the history of cable news. The old record of 6.5 million viewers was smashed by smithereens by Trump with an astonishing 11.7 million viewers. It was also the highest rated presidential address of any kind in the history of cable news.
Now to the reaction from viewers. CBS took an instant YouGov poll. Here are the amazing results.
97 percent of Republican viewers liked Trump’s speech.
72 percent of independents liked it.
Amazingly, 43 percent of Democrats liked it.
Overall 75 percent of Americans approved of the speech. And a shocking 8 out of 10 felt President Trump was trying to unite the nation, rather than divide it. Two-thirds reported the speech made them feel proud.
Which means anyone who isn’t a bitter, nasty, arrogant, hateful, Kool-Aid drinking socialist loved what they saw. Unfortunately, that leaves the entire Democrat Congress.
That’s why I report the Democratic Party committed political suicide on Tuesday night. Their response to Trump’s speech was out of bounds. It wasn’t normal. It was hateful. It was bizarre. Actually, in a word, it was “foreign.” The Democratic Party is now a foreign party in their own country. They no longer have any understanding of what people born in America think or feel.
It's perfectly fine to be respectfully opposed to the politics of one party or president. That's acceptable. That’s as American as apple pie. But that’s not what happened on Tuesday night.
Democrats were outed as the party that is rooting for America's failure. Rooting against a booming economy. Rooting for misery, instead of prosperity. Rooting against job creation. Rooting against a booming stock market. Rooting against employee bonuses. Angry about the lowest black unemployment ever. Angry about the lowest Hispanic unemployment ever. Angry at the lowest female unemployment in 18 years.
They openly frowned, grimaced, groaned and looked sick to their stomachs when President Trump celebrated the American flag…the national anthem… American freedom… and American opportunity. Bizarre. Self-destructive behavior.
But wait it gets worse. Democrats appeared to be on the side of murderous MS-13 gangs. When Trump touted legislation to help stop gang violence, drug dealing and murder by vicious MS-13 gangs…and when Trump introduced the parents of two young girls murdered by MS-13 killers…Democrats booed and groaned.
Democrats clearly believe discussing murders by illegal aliens is “racist.” Democrats clearly believe Trump has to be Hitler or KKK to publicly admit there are people of color (gasp) murdering innocent Americans. This was the second worst moment of disconnect in American political history.
Now to the single worst disconnect ever. Amnesty-loving Democratic Congressman Luis Gutierrez WALKED OUT upon hearing chants of “USA, USA!” It was too much for him. He appeared to be on the verge of tears. Democrats consoled him. To Democrats, it’s now “racist” to love your country.
The Democrats’ performance at the SOTU was shocking. Because if they had an ounce of common sense they could at least act like they love America, act like patriots, act respectful to parents of kids murdered by illegal alien gangs. Any sane politician would have acted civil - just to fool enough voters to win elections. Not these Democrats. They suffer from TID - “Trump Insanity Disorder.” They are on tilt. Trump triggers them to acts of self-destruction. They’ve lost their minds.
Turn out the lights. There is no one left to support the Democratic Party we saw on Tuesday night, except for illegal aliens, radicals, Marxists, felons and welfare addicts.
A booming economy is a step backwards to this group. The American flag is something to be ashamed of. God is a curse. And job creation is a sin. It's clear they are the party that wants to “MAKE AMERICA MISERABLE AGAIN.”
This was the night the Democratic Party committed political suicide.
Since the Democratic Party has evidently become the enemy of America, that IS the good news.
That's still a pretty substantial base, sad to say.
“They just cant help themselves with their hate. “
All they learned from their god for eight of the last nine years was to double down on their hatred whenever challenged.
This is the stat I was looking for:
The old record of 6.5 million viewers was smashed by smithereens by Trump with an astonishing 11.7 million viewers. It was also the highest rated presidential address of any kind in the history of cable news.
Democrat voters care about the government checks....America can got to hell.
...”Which means anyone who isn’t a bitter, nasty, arrogant, hateful, Kool-Aid drinking socialist loved what they saw. Unfortunately, that leaves the entire Democrat Congress.”...
Yes..You forgot to mention envy, which is a big part of everything going on out there.
We would think someone would try to save the Democrat Party from self-destruction. The media seems to be also in the self-destructive mode, with all the hate, bias and lies.
Millions and millions and millions of them. Some are virtual humans or ex humans but they still vote.
And 43% of the democrat base that tuned in ...approved of the speech. I wonder how many of that base voted for Trump or didn’t vote at all last election?
How many are ready to leave a party that has clearly left them? Midterms might be very, very interesting.
There is something medically seriously wrong with Peelousy.
They look like they just ate a Tide Pod
The Democrat Party is made of hate and greed for power and control.
After the SOTU speech Tuesday, I am even more convinced DJT needs to go straight to the people from the oval office on occasion when he needs support for legislation or to explain his position on a subject. Reagan did it and was very successful and it’s clear Trump has a connection with the people that is strong. His speech to Congress last year was also very successful. I think he could seriously move the needle on his agenda if he forgoes tweeting about it and just talks to the public about it. That connection and ability to communicate is why he was elected in the first place!
Democrat voters care about the government checks....America can got to hell.

blam, thank you for using “Democrat” rather than “Democratic”.
The Demonicrats should be required to register as foreign agents.
What Americans don't know and what I think is that democrats are hard core marxists especially all of the news media reporters
Right. They are, thus, the enemy of America.
