State of the Union

Tonight is reminiscent of of how President Reagan used to make me feel during his State of the Union addresses. He always made us feel better about ourselves and especially about our country. Hard to argue with the facts and it is a shame that the other side of the aisle does not enjoy good news.

Maybe I just haven't been paying attention, but with GEN Milley and GEN McConville this seems like the first time I've seen the new uniforms being worn outside of publicity shots.

I have an undergrad degree in political science, and I feel like I just got a TBI with Iowa.

I need a few days to compose myself and recover from the brain damage before I even try to understand what happened.

All I know is it made my head hurt.

Of the lot, I have to say I like Buttigieg, Yang, and Gabbard as people, if not future Presidents.

I wouldn’t vote for them, but they seem like they have the character and integrity, if misplaced methods, for achieving the right outcome.

It all depends on who is willing to go down to the Crossroads and make the deal with the Devil.

The State of The Union, what a despicable display of childish behavior from that Botox Drunken Queen. It goes to show that the Dummocrats still cannot get over the fact that Trump is our President. What a bunch of cry babies and sore losers on the left. So much disdain, hatred and unprofessional lunacy from those Liptards. They should be tarred and feathered and marched through the streets. It's time to really get down to business and throw out the trash. Did you see the White Suited Feminist Section? The only thing they forgot was their Pink Vagina Hats.....Idiots.........

President Reagan is bloody hard to follow, even 30+ years later.

Good god that fella could give a great speech and throw in a few cheeky laughs.

President Trump just doesn’t resonate with the same gravitas and substance for me.
