    I doubt it changed many votes, but the outlier insufferables like Omar and Tahlib on the D side must be terrible for national Dem politics. My guess is that if the Dems had it to do over again, they'd just not show up to the speech en masse.

    Education is extremely important.

      Not always. Here's from a Texas Democrat.

      Allegedly.

      I was only joking

        Democrats’ Response to the President’s Big Speech: What’s True, What’s Spin
        By Francis Gauthier

        1. Let's see Francis Gauthier provide a comparable fact-checking write up against claims made in Trump's SOTU speech.

        2. Or let's see @mik quotes a comparable fact-checking write up against claims made in Trump's SOTU speech.

        Yes, every time anybody posts anything supportive of the right on TNCR, we should make sure it's counterbalanced by something that attacks the right.

        If only we had any posters here brave enough to attack the right. I have to admit, under the fascistic rule of Donald Trump, I can understand why nobody is willing to. I wouldn't want to be thrown into the gulags either.

        We must face facts. The human race simply does not contain a single person presently with the bravery required to say anything negative about Trump.

        Maybe, Ax, you can be that guy? Just once? Maybe, if someone says something negative about him, and doesn't immediately get imprisoned, it will break the seal. You could win the congressional medal of freedom, or maybe even the Nobel Peace Prize.

        It just takes one person.

        And an alternative.

          Yeah they’re almost cartoonishly bad.

            The republics are running into the same problem the democrats did leading up to the 2024 election, but they have it for the 2026 election.

            The general perception of the economy is that it is in bad shape and heading in the wrong direction. That is not completely agreed by the data.

            I think it was @jolly who said that is was the perception that mattered, and he was referring to the status before the 2024 election. Wonder if he still thinks that?

              Yeah some commentators were saying Trump filmed a campaign commercial for the Dems during his speech ridiculing the idea of affordability being a problem. (Though I never saw the clip myself)

              The whole reason we call them illegal aliens is because they’re subject to our laws.

                      Not five of the nine Supreme Court justices: “Justices Samuel Alito., Clarence Thomas, Neil Gorsuch, Sonia Sotomayor and Ketanji Brown Jackson were not present.”

                        No indication in the story that any of that is out of the ordinary.
