3 Reasons Democrat State of the Union Stunts Will Likely Fail
Every delay has consequences.
Abraham Lincoln never delivered a public State of the Union address.
However, he does know something about drama-loving Democrats spoiling a president’s good night out.
On Tuesday night, President Donald Trump will not be at Ford’s Theater. But he will be walking into a theatrical production staged by theater kids wearing congressional pins shouting not Sic Semper Tyrannis but “No More Kings.”
One may say my comparison of today’s congressional Democrats to John Wilkes Booth is cheeky and itself overdramatic, but does anyone really believe at this point that the Democrat vitriol toward Trump is any less intense than Booth’s toward Lincoln? Has the assassination porn of recent years, the dogged determination to destroy the man and anyone even associated with him, not shown that?
How about the acceleration of violent rhetoric against Trump even in the wake of Butler, Pennsylvania … even in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s public slaying?
Do we expect it to slow even in the wake of Sunday’s breach of Mar-a-Lago’s security perimeter by an armed young man?
The best we can do is tell ourselves—lie to ourselves?—that they don’t really mean it. That it’s all a show. They’re not Booth with a pistol in the president’s box, but Booth in a production of “Julius Caesar.”
Or more accurately, a farce. So let us see it as such.
Trump will be at the U.S. Capitol to deliver his State of the Union. Democrats will be there to deliver performative, disruptive stunts for their radical base, fundraising coffers, and social media hits. It’ll be a tacky, disrespectful, trashy display in the hallowed House chamber.
After all, these people were weaned not on Robert’s Rules of Order but on Saul Alinsky’s “Rules for Radicals” … and “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.”
What will this year’s production look like? Who will try topping that infamous State of the Union where Nancy Pelosi ripped up Trump’s speech the way Hulk Hogan used to rip off his shirt?
Trump’s 2025 speech to Congress starred Rep. Al Green, D-Texas, yelling and screaming and waving his cane like he was desperately trying to hail a taxi in a blizzard.
A gaggle of radical congresswomen held up cute little signs near their faces, like actresses in anti-depression medication ads.
Who knows what displays we’ll see this year? “Welfare Fraud is a Natural Right,” “I Heart Violent Criminal Illegals” or perhaps Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez holding up a sign asking, “Which Way Is Taiwan?”
It is guaranteed we will see signs, buttons, or bellowing evoking ill-fated ICE protester Renee Good. If we’re lucky, members will do an interpretive dance in her honor as protesters did the other day outside the Trump Kennedy Center … a couple days before fellow protesters dumped toxic chemicals on the center’s ice rink.
Certainly, we’ll see ICE-related protests. Who knows? Sen. Chris Van Hollen, D-Md., may even bring Kilmar Abrego Garcia as his plus-one in the gallery.
Last year also featured Democrats staying stone cold silent at every Trump proclamation of good news. They used their hands as booty warmers rather than applaud the families of those slain by illegal immigrants.
They couldn’t even bother to move a muscle for …
