    Default 4 Dems so far not attending SOTU address

    So I guess they think they will somehow be doing something by not attending? Who gives a crap. But I would like to personally thank 2 of them from the bottom of my heart, that I don't have to see their nasty faces not once on my screen. And they have the audacity, and comical, idea to call Trump a racist, while they are 2 of the worst - Maxine Waters and Frederica Wilson. Also the criminal John Lewis, who I believe was arrested about 40x? And also Earl Blumenauer.

    Or maybe they don't want to sit there stewing about all the successes America has had this past year?

    Democratic Rep. Frederica Wilson 4th Lawmaker to Boycott Trump’s State of the Union

    Rep. Frederica Wilson (D-FL) announced that she would be boycotting President Donald Trump’s first State of the Union address later in the month over his alleged remarks about “shithole” countries.

    “For the first time since I began serving in the U.S. House of Representatives, I will not be attending the president’s State of the Union address,” Frederica Wilson said in a statement obtained by the Tampa Bay Times.

    “I have no doubt that instead of delivering a message of inclusivity and an agenda that benefits all Americans, President Trump’s address will be full of innuendo, empty promises, and lies,” she added.

    The Florida Democrat said Trump “demeaned the presidency” during his first year in office and called the president’s alleged remarks about Haiti, El Salvador, and several African countries “racist and incendiary.”

    “The United States’ reputation is smoldering in the ashes of his recent racist and incendiary remarks about Haiti and African nations. Many of his proposed domestic policies are harmful to people of color, low-income communities, and the middle class,” Wilson said.

    “It would be an embarrassment to be seen with him at a forum that under any other president would be an honor to attend.”

    It's a shame they won't attend. Look at Patton, he read Rommel's book on tank tactics, his enemy, he didn't boycott the guy, he went and discovered everything he could about him. That way he able able to smash his panzers at El Guitar. So those democrat leaders need to go and listen to Trump, to learn everything they can and have their own victory at El Guitar.

    Here's my take on it:

    The fewer Dems attend, the less likely we are to hear shouts of "You Shithole!" "Racist!!" and so on from the audience. It's good if the pop-offs stay home.

    If ALL the Dems didn't attend, it would be like the election of Lincoln in 1860 --------- his name was not even on the ballot in seven of the states which seceded shortly after the election. That would be a ....bad sign, in other words, if no Dems came. But I don't think we are there quite yet.

    Kind of seems they are not attending to the position they were voted in to.

    I would not care if I was in office. The people would have put me there and I would
    represent them by showing up. I would have even shown up for Obama, who I loathe.
    I have lost my mind. If found, please give it a snack and return it?

    Default Ya know....if you really think about it.

    The only people who will even notice that Democrats didn't show up at the SOTU speech, will be people like us who follow politics, politicians, and the LAME STREAM PRESS who will need a source for more of their FAKE NEWS.

    The real people out there, across the country will be too busy living their lives.
    We already know. The people who live in the Democrat ghetto, high crime, high poverty cities won't be watching because THEY DON'T REALLY CARE.
    If there are ANY sports on TV at the time, or the long string of stupid Reality Shows about Desperate wives in some city, or game shows that show people winning money...FOR NOTHING. That is where the people WHO SHOULD be watching will be. And, lets not forget the SNOWFLAKES, hiding in their safe spaces...afraid they will be OFFENDED, or INSULTED because they hate the President who caused them to have TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME!
    I love to make Liberals Cry, and Whine.
    So, this is for them.

    I've gotten off watching SOTU addresses, also debates -- it's been, what, 20 years since I bothered.

    We might look at Trump's speech, though. He's my prez.

    Now that's a damn shame. They're going to miss the mass walk out by Democrats that I'm predicting...
    "I am allergic to piety, it makes me break out in rash judgements." - Penn Jillette
    "I have never killed a man, but I have read many obituaries with a lot of pleasure." - Clarence Darrow
