The first duty of a Government is to protect its citizens, not illegal aliens. Stand up if you agree. The RATs didn’t.

I guess it’s hard to stand in support of a government that they’re trying to overthrow.

I’m actually gobsmacked that they stood for a large group of white males oozing testosterone.

best phrase of the night, “how do you not stand for this”? He destroyed them all as a group and as individuals. At one point when DJ was evirating the somali pirates of Minnesota omar’s eyes were full of tears as her old white woke traitor fiend and colleague reached over with a comforting touch of her hands was so heart warming, I threw up in my throat. So glad he paraded these despicable parasites for all the nation to see.

Also,
Anyone wearing what looks like a black garbage bag, with eyeholes.
Any colored person claiming they are oppressed.

The loser Democrats couldn’t even stand up for the hockey team gold winners. Stared at their phones. Insignificant losers.

Finally.

I think for a casual viewer, the Democrats were a bunch of whiny kids who didn't get what they wanted from their parents.

He said that with a soft, almost hurt voice. Coupled with the agony on Iryna’s mom’s face, I thought it was the highlight of the entire speech. Trump looked and sounded like a caring, compassionate friend to Iryna’s family.

Some, you’re right.

Most affirmatively hate western civilization, capitalism, and Judeo-Christian morals.

"omar’s eyes were full of tears"

I think they also showed a bit of fear, as she seems fully aware that DJT and the current DOJ and DHS (and I suppose ICE as well) are looking very closely at her, and her fellow Somalian fraudsters and thieves.

as a matter of political interest, the President’s speech honored no Blacks

“How do you not stand?”

I thought this was by far the most egregious. Why didn’t they stand, this wasn’t a political issue, a mother was in emotional pain. Is it because democrats support black and illegal murderers.

The Dems have all become Captain Ahab from Moby Dick. They’d rather destroy themselves and the entire country than let go of their hatred and lust for vengeance.
